Insert Widget Catalog Product Link in Better Blog not showing on front end

We are using the Better Blog extension inside of Magento to create multiple posts for marketing. It uses the same Page Editor as Element->Pages on the Magento Admin Panel. In the editor you can add the widget, modify the widget as normal, but it doesn’t show on the front end. I’ve tried clearing cache for front end and backend but nothing works.
Note: the Catalog Product Link widget does show on the front end if you create it in a Element->Page page, but if you create the exact same widget in the Better Blog extension it doesn’t work.
I thought it might be the extension not linked to the root category where the products are but it is setup correctly. Any thoughts?
Below is what is showing in the editor. disabled.
