<p>Remove Empty Shortcodes helps maintain clean content by removing shortcodes that no longer work or generate output. This commonly happens when:</p>
<ul>
<li>You’ve deactivated a plugin that provided shortcodes</li>
<li>You’re trying different plugins and some left behind inactive shortcodes</li>
<li>You have shortcodes from plugins that weren’t properly uninstalled</li>
</ul>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Automatically removes inactive shortcodes from displayed content</li>
<li>Preserves your original content in the database</li>
<li>Works with both posts and pages</li>
<li>Handles both self-closing and wrapped shortcodes</li>
<li>Zero configuration required</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<p>The plugin checks your content for shortcodes when pages are displayed. If it finds shortcodes that:<br />
* Don’t produce any output<br />
* Aren’t registered with WordPress<br />
* Are empty or inactive</p>
<p>It removes them from the displayed content while keeping your original content intact in the database.</p>
<h4>Use Cases</h4>
<ul>
<li>Clean up content after removing plugins that used shortcodes</li>
<li>Remove inactive shortcodes without editing posts manually</li>
<li>Maintain clean content for readers and search engines</li>
<li>Preserve original content in case you reinstall removed plugins</li>
</ul>
