Use shortcodes in terms description? in WordPress

I believe the following should work:

<?php $content = apply_filters(he_content', $content); $content = str_replace(']]>
', ']]&gt;', $content);
?>

You could put this in the template of in a hooked functions.

I've cribbed this from here and here , where the intention is to write content from get_the_content() (raw) in an equivalent way to the_content() (amongst other things: parsed shortcodes).

Good luck!
