Hi Cheryl,

You will need another plugin in order to use this in a text widget. Try this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/parse-shortcodes/

Other than that I’d need to see what you have so far.

Hello
I downloaded your badge grabber plugin and I am trying to add it as a text widget to my website and I can not figure out how to do the correct format to get it to work. I am very new to this stuff and not really sure exactly what to do. Is there any way you can help me or give the information I need to load where I can just change the information to mine? Thank you so much for your help. Thank you Cheryl

In a Genesis Child Theme you can add the code add to functions.php in the child theme’s directory at the end of the file but before the final ?> if there is one.

Depending on the video you might want to use the [embed] shortcode so that you can set a width otherwise the video may come out larger than your widget area width.

Daisy…
Thanks for sharing this information. I have a Streamline theme. (I’m a bit new to this.)
Do I go to Appearance>editor>Templates> theme functions…and then paste the code at the bottom?
Also, to make sure…do I paste the following in it’s entirety?
//Enable AutoEmbeds from Plain Text URLs in Text Widgets
add_filter( ‘widget_text’, array( $wp_embed, ‘run_shortcode’ ), 8 );
add_filter( ‘widget_text’, array( $wp_embed, ‘autoembed’), 8 );

When it is completed can I simply paste the youtube link into the widget?

Thanks…Bob
