This plugin was such a good find and I'm truly grateful to the developers. I really needed something like this and it works great. What would be even more helpful is if it could somehow search a multi-site instance. We have so many sub-sites and it takes a while go check each one individually.

When you take over a WordPress site that had several other people working on it before you and there is tons of old content, it's great to be able to find shortcodes that you either no longer need, or shortcodes left from plugins that were removed. This plugin is so easy to use and gives great information. Kudos to the author.

I ran into this problem: I no longer want to use a plugin, but I know I have shortcodes for it in at least a dozen posts, but how should I know which ones? And voilá, here is the perfect and simple solution! Without unnecessary bells and whistles, but with everything you need for this purpose. Thank you!
