As long as the shortening is IBS-safe (like soy shortening, soy margarine, or All-Vegetable Crisco), it doesn't matter whether you use melted shortening or oil as far as your IBS is concerned. All fats are tricky for IBS and all fats have the same number of calories.

The only question you need to consider is what the total amount of fat in the recipe is. Depending on how much bread you're making, 1/4 cup of fat doesn't sound out of line. That's how much oil is in Heather's Simple Sweet Cornbread which contains 1 cup each of cornmeal and flour and ends up with 29% of calorie from fat.
