Hi Daniel,
You need to enable FilterCodes in Site Administration > Plugins > Filters > Manage Filters. Make sure that FilterCodes is On and set to Content and Heading. To avoid conflicts with other filters, you might also want to consider moving it to the top of the list.
Hope this helps! Best regards,
Michael
