Hi

I was trying to add a shortcode widget to my page but it didnt work now the actual code is showing on the right hand side of my published page and no matter what i've tried i cannot remove it. when i go to the widget section the section for wpforo is empty , ive cleared the cache numerous times but its still there.

all i want to do is have a sidebar like this forum has on the right, please can someone advise.

thank you so much

Hello, what i see in your capture are MENU shortcodes for wpForo. Not widget shortcodes....

Can you explain better what you want to do?

Do you mean you have added wpforo WIDGETS on the sidebar and it shows like that?

See my capture, is that what you added ?

@dimalifragis i activated the classic widgets instead of the new one and this fixed the problem so must be an incompatibility problem thanks for your replies very much appreciated.
