Thanks for testing it thoroughly — if the shortcode is in the post, the campaign is marked Published, and you’ve cleared cache + checked in other browsers, but it’s still not showing…
Then we’ve got a deeper issue, but don’t worry — here’s how we crack it open step-by-step 🔧
🕵️♂️ Let’s Isolate the Problem:
✅ 1. Test the Shortcode in a Fresh Draft Page
Let’s see if the problem is with that specific blog post, or with the shortcode/campaign itself.
Try this:
- Go to
Pages > Add New - Title it “Test Optin Form”
- Paste only this:
[optin-monster-inline slug="c0el71wx2czqxwxoim"]- Publish the page
- View it in a private browser
👉 Does the form show up on this blank test page?
✅ 2. Temporarily Switch to Auto Mode
In your OptinMonster campaign’s Output Settings, try this:
- Change from Manual to Automatic
- Save it
- Reload the blog post page and see if the form shows up automatically
This helps us know if OptinMonster is injecting correctly but the shortcode isn’t working for some reason.
✅ 3. Check for Conflicts
Sometimes a plugin or theme function blocks shortcodes. Here’s what to try:
- Temporarily switch to a default theme (like Twenty Twenty-One)
- Disable other plugins just briefly (like WPCode, SEO, etc.)
- Reload the post
If the form suddenly appears, we’ve found the conflict.
If you’d like, you can share another screenshot of:
- The exact code area in your WordPress editor
- Your OptinMonster Output Settings screen again (just to recheck status)
And I’ll guide you laser-focused from there. Let’s get this sucker to show live.
