To stop from being bugged by update nags, after you install it, go to installed plugins->short code ultimate->edit, and edit the version number to something high (I just added a one in front of it so it’s 13.9.5).
Of course, this is risky as any security updates won’t be implemented. But it’s a patch until I can figure something out. I have the codes throughout my site so have to get rid of them and use something else.
I tried several versions on his github site but all of them were broken in one way or another or at least didn’t work for me. The carosaul was broken (showing text instead of gallery), the shortcode generator wouldn’t generator anything, just spin; I had to go back to a backup and get version 3.9 which worked great like it used to. Here’s the download link if anybody else needs it:
[link redacted]The issue is he added a “prefix” setting in settings. I understand why so as not to interfere with other shortcodes but I’m not using other shortcodes and it automatically broke all of my codes immediately on update. Should have only allowed implementation at our option. Fix is to delete the prefix (or add it). See Shortcodes->Settings-Shortcodes Prefix.

By the way, thanks for the great plugin !
Marking this as resolved.
What was happening was when I went into “Settings->Plugin Activate” and selected true, then update it stayed true but actually wasn’t because when I refreshed the page it showed false.
I got it working by deactivating it and then reactivating both this plugin and the WP Maintenance Mode Admin Bar Alert plugin and then reactivating this one and then the other one and they both seem to work now.
