FAQ16 Shortcodes added in my content areas are not working

The following shortcodes by default will use the post id setup in the WP loop if not set specifically:

• [mrp_rating_form]
• [mrp_rating_result]
• [mrp_rating_item_results]
• [mrp_rating_entry_details_list]

Some content areas on a page added by page builders, custom widgets or theme code may not initialize the WP loop properly. In this situation, your shortcodes may not work unless you set the post id shortcode attribute specifically e.g. [mrp_rating_result post_id="1"]. A symptom of this is you might find the [mrp_rating_result] shortcode displaying “No ratings available” even though there are ratings viewable in the WP-admin for the current post.

See the full documentation on shortcodes which has a list of shortcode attributes available.
