Shortcodes not working in WordPress V 4.9.8

The pages were constructed earlier with SiteOrigin page builder where the WPDM shortcodes were inserted in SiteOrigin’s text widget. These are working fine.

But when creating new pages with the WPDM shortcode in SiteOrigin page builder, the pages are not displaying any content. After inserting the shortcode in a page/post, when the page/post is updated/saved, the updated page/post is not refreshing. Instead, a blank page is displayed.

Also, the old pages which are otherwise ok, if they are edited and updated, they are not displaying any content either in the front-end or in the back-end.

Hi!

Thanks for the trouble shooting. I am getting the attached database error message in this page: http://pcblltd.com/quarterly-results

You have the admin access to the site, please look into it. Thanks again.

Hello! Could you look into the matter?

Hello!

I found out the issue and fixed it. I am sharing it here so that other user users with similar problem may find the solution quick.

I found out that I had inserted the same short code twice in the page by mistake. Which meant that the same category was displayed twice on the page. Hence, there was the problem.

I removed the duplicate shortcode and the problem disappeared. The page is loading fine now. Thank you very much for your support.
