Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview
About this plugin
The Blank Shortcodes WordPress plugin lets you blank out any shortcode that you don’t need anymore. g. this EasyAzon shortcode:
Now suppose you switch to a new plugin for Amazon banners and you want to remove all the EasyAzon info blocks from your thousands of posts using it. Either you edit thousands of posts just to remove the EasyAzon shortcodes, or you just remove the EasyAzon plugin and insert the EasyAzon shortcodes names into the Blank Shortcodes configuration, separated by white spaces.
Features:
It can blank any shortcode, EasyAzon ones are just an example
Normal blanking (e.g. only configured shortcodes, but keeps their content)
Total blanking (e.g. configured shortcodes AND their content)
Shortcodes to blank out can be configured in the backend
Blazingly FAST
Self documented in the settings page
Compatible with latest WordPress releases
As of this writing, the only existing plugin that does this job
No affiliation with EasyAzon, nor Amazon, nor anyone else. They are just the reason why I developed this plugin, but it’s not tied to them in any way.
PRO Features:
Nothing more, but you can always donate for the only existing version of this plugin
Planned features (implementation time depends on received donations):
Translations
Integration with caching plugins (by now you have to clean caches manually after you have configured this plugin)
anything else donors might come up with
