<p><strong>Clean unused shortcodes</strong> helps you find and remove shortcode tags left behind by old plugins, themes, or page builders — without hunting through posts one by one.</p>
<p>The tool lives under <strong>Tools <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Clean unused shortcodes</strong>. Choose which public post types to scan, review the results, preview changes, then clean individual shortcodes or run a bulk cleanup.</p>
<h4>Highlights</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Scan by post type</strong> — posts, pages, and other public types (media/attachments excluded).</li>
<li><strong>Three result tabs</strong> — unused (unregistered) shortcodes, used (registered and found), and registered but unused.</li>
<li><strong>Content and excerpts</strong> — scans both fields and shows where each shortcode appears.</li>
<li><strong>Batched operations</strong> — scan and clean large sites in chunks with a progress bar and cancel option.</li>
<li><strong>Incremental scan</strong> — optionally rescan only posts modified since the last run.</li>
<li><strong>Dry-run preview</strong> — see before/after snippets per post before saving.</li>
<li><strong>Protected shortcodes</strong> — allowlist tags you never want removed (e.g. <code>caption</code>, <code>embed</code>).</li>
<li><strong>Skip on clean all</strong> — exclude specific shortcodes from bulk cleanup.</li>
<li><strong>Gutenberg-aware</strong> — removes empty <code>wp:shortcode</code> blocks after the inner shortcode is stripped.</li>
<li><strong>Hyphenated names</strong> — detects shortcodes like <code>[my-slider]</code> as well as <code>[gallery]</code>.</li>
</ul>
<h4>Who is this for?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Sites that deactivated plugins but still have <code>[shortcode]</code> tags in content.</li>
<li>Editors who want a clear list of where each tag appears before deleting.</li>
<li>Administrators cleaning up legacy content on staging before going live.</li>
</ul>
<p>Always <strong>back up your database</strong> (or test on staging) before running bulk clean operations.</p>
