There will be no more development for Atahualpa (or any other theme), and no support. Also no new registrations. I turned off the donation system. I may turn the forum to read only if it gets abused for spam. Unfortunately I have no time for the forum or the themes. Thanks a lot to the people who helped in all these years, especially Larry and of course: Paul. Take care and stay healthy -- Flynn, Atahualpa developer, Sep 2021
I can't be sure but I suspect WordPress has reasons for not allowing this by default. You can alternatively use this plugin.

I simply cannot get shortcodes to work in sidebar text widgets.
I'm trying to call [highslide] plugin from text sidebar widget (or advanced text widget - tried both).
I've tried adding: add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode'); to functions.php
I've tried using advanced text widget and numerous other plugins to enable shortcodes in text widgets without luck.
To the end of “functions.php” and see if it works.

Highslide uses a tag (<highslide>) not a shortcode ([highslide])

I use the extra plugin "Shortcodes in Sidebar Widgets" to solve this problem. It works in the background once installed.
