Reviews
Clean, attractive user interface. Quite fast even on my Windows sandbox. Found every instance of every shortcode, including the one I was looking for ??
To use the “Find by Shortcode” option, I needed to increase PHP’s memory_limit to 1G, but that is not a problem.
I use a lot of shortcodes, some of which I author myself. I just loaded [Shortcodes Finder ]and voila, here are all of my site’s shortcodes, which can be handily filtered if desired. The finder also lists other important and salient information about each short code. I’m definitely going to throw some $ in the author’s direction. Well worth it.
Help me a lot to find the shortcode in the theme which was not customizable by any builder.
but by finding the shortcode in theme files i was able to customize as i want to
Very clean and useful plugin. Thanks you!
Several years ago I started using a “visual page builder”. You just couldn’t create complex pages that fast and easy without one. The time and effort to write the html/css was just not worth it. Fast forward to Gutenberg and my slow, clunky page builder became obsolete. I started the meticulous task of removing short-codes and editing hundreds of pages. As I came across them-I would fix them, hoping one day-I would get all of them-but how would I know for sure? Then I came across this plugin and gave it a shot. Glad I did! It easily found hundreds of short-codes with a link to each post/page. It took me a few days-but I just finished removing the last one. I was so impressed I came here to write a review. This plugin is just great. If you need to find/remove/edit short-codes, there is nothing better. Just perfect.
