Is vegetable oil the same as regular shortening?

Making a white cake.Is vegetable oil the same as regular shortening?
No, you shouldn't substitute oils for a solid fat, or vice versa. Try using apple sauce or other fruit puree. It'll make the cake dense, and moist.Is vegetable oil the same as regular shortening?
I always use butter, but any shortening will work- vegetable oil, crisco, or margarine. DO NOT USE OLIVE OIL!!!!! Good luck.
