Not at all. Animal-based shortenings are all solid at room temperature, but vegetable shortenings can be either. Solid and liquid also behave differently depending upon the application and the working temperature. Generally speaking, solid shortenings are used to create 'flakes' inside doughs or batters.

Where can you get solid shortening?
Probably at any supermarket - shortening is simply a food grade fat. Crisco is the most common brand - in some countries you may find Kremelta. It's called shortening because it is used to make 'short' pastry - that is, a pastry with a high proportion of fat and very little liquid. If a recipe calls for shortening you can substitute with the same weight of butter, margarine, lard or coconut fat. You can also substitute with the same weight of cooking oil but in that case you would need to reduce the volume of other liquid ingredients accordingly.
