I’ve been struggling with the simple task of commenting out html code in WordPress for a while now. Very pleased to come across this plugin, which easily gets the job done!

This works fine. However, it’s not obvious how to use it, and the sum total of usage instructions on the developer site is as follows:
—
Usage:
Place the shortcode at the end.
If you want the comment-out text to be enclosed in HTML comment syntax (the default), set the “type” attribute to “html”, or just leave out the “type” attribute altogether. If you want the commented-out text to be removed completely from the browser’s “View Source” window, set the “type” attribute to “hidden”.

Yes – what shortcode?? At the end of what??
Fortunately, I found this on the www.ads-software.com page for the plugin:
Simply place the opening shortcode [comment] at the beginning of the text you wish to comment out, and the closing shortcode [/comment] at the end.
It’s not enough for a plugin to work, it needs to be apparent to a non-techy user how to make it work – so docked one star for lack of user instructions.
Otherwise, it does exactly what it says and is very useful – thanks Tracy!
