  Shortcodes included through either wysiwyg editor or do_shortcode method are not working.
  When a shortcode is included through a wysywig editor the page will show the shortcode markup instead of interpreting the code.
  Ex : If I include [contact_form] into product description I will get on the page front end a string “[contact_form]’.
  A shortcode inlucded to a page through the php do_shortcode method doesn’t show up at all.

  Hi, my instance is on a VM with no public access. I am running a WordPress 4.7.3 with Woocommerce 3.0.
  I have tried to disable all plugins but the issue doesn’t go away so that’s why I think that this my a core issue or settings issue ?

  If you need support for a self-hosted site using software from WordPress.org, please try posting your question in the WordPress.org support forums.
