    Yesterday the shortcode to display the portfolio posts was working fine, today it has stopped working. Nothing has been changed to affect it. It now only prints the code to the screen

    WP.com: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi Dan –

    Thanks for getting in touch. I have reviewed the site and you’re off to a good start with this project. This might be an issue on your end. I’m not seeing the problem. To be certain I haven’t overlooked it in reviewing the site, I’ll ask that you reply with a link of where I can find it, and/or a screen shot of what you see.

    The first suggestion is rule out any issues with your browser, cookies, cache, or extensions. Here are some steps to walk you through that process. Go ahead and book mark this page because it’s just helpful and applies to the internet on a whole, not just WordPress.com.

    I also noticed that this is a professional website. To improve your branding I’d suggest setting up a personal plan for $4/month. This option will allow you to take advantage of some additional tools we have.

    You’ll be able to register a custom domain. This is super important anytime you’re name is involved with a project. If you don’t register it, then somebody else could, and they could build any sort of site they want on your name. Do you see where I’m going with that? It can be expensive and time consuming to get those removed after the fact. Being proactive is the best approach here, and it’s affordable.

    Additionally, a custom domain will improve your SEO results, bringing more folks to your work. It’s going to broaden your overall reach and improve your branding.

    The personal plan will allow you to remove ads from the project, giving it a more professional look. There’s additional media storage, and other features too.

    A custom email solution might not be on your roadmap. I wanted to make sure you knew that with the personal plan you can add a custom email solution, so all of your email and site communication is working through an address that you’ve set up. Like (email visible only to moderators and staff) or (email visible only to moderators and staff) for example.
