Total Number of Posts : shortcodes not working anymore
3 replies · Started by Jean-Pierre on July 3, 2021
Hello !
The total number of Posts (total on blog / since 24h / since 7 days) used to work very well for 2 years. But since I made several updates (wordpress / plugins), it suddenly stopped to work.
In the customizer, I still can see the figures. But they do not appear on the public website.
- The shortcodes are in a text widget, in the header of the website
- One of the shortcodes comes from the plugin "simple blog stats" [sbs_posts]
- The 2 other shortcodes come from a php code in the "Code Snippets" plugin
- Generatepress premium

Do you have any idea of what I can do to fix this ?
Thank you very much for your help.
Hi there,
are you using any Cache Plugins ? And does your server have Page Caching ?
If so - can you try clearing those caches.
Yes I did clear "WP Rocket" cache. And my server does not use cache (I have not enabled it).
But in reading your answer, I understook my problem had nothing to do with Generatepress.
So that I kept looking and I found the solution. The Widget "Text" does not recognize the shortcodes anymore. I had to use the HTML widget instead. And now the shortcodes are working again.
Thanks a lot David !
Glad to hear you found the solution!
