    • Add a Shortcode block.

    • If you use one, click the Settings link for that plugin, then click the Clear cache button or the Purge cache button.

    • If your hosting panel or CDN also has cache, clear it there too.
    • Reload the page with a hard refresh (Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + R) and test again.
  4. Theme or page builder removes shortcode output.
    • Click the Edit link on the same page and move [remapdb] to a simple content area first.
    • Test with a basic Shortcode block instead of advanced theme blocks.
    • If it works in a simple block, keep it there or ask your theme support how to allow shortcode rendering in your current block type.
