allow shortcodes to work in excerpts

[ohacastle]

Hello,

Any chance there's something we can do to make shortcodes load in the excerpts?

I love that your plug-in loads excerpts, but it only shows text and html. I tried using a shortcode in my excerpt and nothing showed.

My intent is to have my product "add-to-cart" shortcodes in the excerpts.

Thanks!

Or allow shortcodes to work in custom fields, either one!

The solution I suggest is to add a shortcode parameter excerpt_shortcodes that if set to yes would render the shortcodes. The code would have to include a check for the [catlist] shortcode and strip it off, while allowing other shortcodes.

Actually, now when I think of it I no longer agree with this, if someone is allowing shortcodes they probably know what they are doing and there should be no limits.
