    I searched this forum and found a few people with the same issue, but did not see a solution.

    When I type HTML code in the Custom Footer area on the Evolve settings page . . . it does not render the HTML, but instead shows exactly what was typed. What am I doing wrong?

    Is there a work-around without having to update the theme? I am hesitant to mess anything up, as it is for an important client.

    I am not using a child-theme either. Will my settings be reset if I update?

    you could try to edit the footer.php file and find this line

    Code:
    <?php $footer_content = evl_get_option(‘evl_footer_content’,”);
    if ($footer_content === false) $footer_content = ”;
    echo $footer_content;
    ?>

    and replace it with:

    Code:
    <?php $footer_content = evl_get_option(‘evl_footer_content’,”);
    if ($footer_content === false) $footer_content = ”;
    echo do_shortcode($footer_content);
    ?>
