Comments
- When making this list I noticed that oik didn’t appear in the list for a very long time. I’m going to have rename the plugin!
- I haven’t tried many of these plugins
- Shortcode plugins per se are not very popular.
- It’s better to find a plugin that does what you want then find out about the shortcodes it provides.
