## Reviews
### [Great Plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-41379/)
[rhettfinck](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rhettfinck/) Meurth 24, 2026
Very convenient and helpful Plugin
### [No Support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-support-648/)
[ukozok](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ukozok/) Meurth 21, 2026
The plugin is good as long as it works, but it does not always, and then you need
help. Which, unfortunately, you will not get from this company. All the money you
have spent is then gone. This month, I sent two support tickets because the youtube
shortcode didn’t work. No reply. About a year ago, I had a similar situation, and
also no reply. Deeply disappointed.
### [Easy and very helpful](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simple-but-very-helpful-5/)
[kimvl](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kimvl/) Meurth 11, 2026
The Shortcodes Ultimate plug-in adds a lot of functionality to my websites. I’ve
been using it for years now and stil very happy. Thanks!
### [Рекомендую этот плагин!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/%d1%80%d0%b5%d0%ba%d0%be%d0%bc%d0%b5%d0%bd%d0%b4%d1%83%d1%8e-%d1%8d%d1%82%d0%be%d1%82-%d0%bf%d0%bb%d0%b0%d0%b3%d0%b8%d0%bd/)
[mak57_78](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mak57_78/) Meurth 8, 2026
Отличный плагин!
### [Fantastic plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fantastic-plugin-2099/)
[Tony Fitzpatrick80](https://profiles.wordpress.org/adambrown82/) Hwevrer 16, 2026
This is a fantastic plugin, and most importantly, it is stable. I had [Shortcodes
by Angie Makes]. The core problem: CVE-2023-23725, which had a broken access control
issue. It allowed an attacker to exploit incorrectly configured access. The previous
plugin had a large control over my theme; I had to find a new secure like-for-like
functionality, which Shortcode Ultimate has, but more importantly, it is up to date
with security patches and isn’t booted off WordPress. I had to reconfigure 30 pages,
which took me 15 hours, but it was worth it, as the new plugin has enhanced my website
significantly. Not only from a security standpoint but from a speed and bloat standpoint,
which the previous plugin did unknowingly until I kicked a hornet’s nest and discovered
Angie Makes is a rogue plugin.
### [This one I would recommend](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/this-one-i-would-recommend/)
[chiefsnake](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chiefsnake/) Hwevrer 4, 2026
Works great. Easy to use, lots of easy-to-access easy-to-understand info about the
many variations possible, including examples to show how variations work. Seems
as though as much work and thought went into explaining how to use it as went into
the plugin itself! Well, maybe not, but this author did not skimp on explanations.
I use it on several sites.
