So, does that means that if I don't use any of those shortcode-dependent elemensts, the pages/posts I build with Tailor will retain the full original design even when I disable (or altogether delete) the plug-in?
If so, you ARE my hero!!
(In case anyone is wondering why I would need to disable/delete the plug-in, the answer is speed/performance gain. With more and more people becoming aware of the site loading speed as one of the SEO factors and of tools like Google PageSpeed Insights/GTMetrix/Pingdom etc., I have been observing an increasing demand for loading speed optimization over the last year or so. IMO, the excessive importance people are attaching to the scores as reported by these services is blown a bit out of proportion, but that is possibly a topic for another thread.)
