Is there anything need to enable for shortcode to work in Wordpress 3.0? I have tried some short codes and none of them working as expected.

A: 

Nope, shortcodes work as they always have. Can you clarify what 'not working as expected' means; perhaps you have some incompatible plugin/theme code interfering.

A: 

Short codes are as simple or as complex as you intend them to be. Also they can solve some pretty annoying problems and add a lot of functionality for your users. One thing I always use a short code for is embedding YouTube videos and media of the same format.

Here are some links that may help you:

Thanks!!! These were useful links. But contact form short code is not working in my wordpress 3.0. For that do I need to enable any plugin?
