 * Hello, I have on WordPress some special template (mioweb.com), which don’t work
   with Gutenberg editor, but with classical older version WordPress editor, where
   are possible only shortcodes, not blocks. ProLocker is super simple plugin and
   I believe effective, not yet discovered, but this absence of shortcode disqualifies
   it for using in many special templates and CMS. Is possible to add shortcode 
   functionality there? 🙂 Thx

 * Dear [@xtradesman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xtradesman/),
 * Thank you for considering using ProLocker in your website. We’re glad to have
   users like you that empower our plugin development initiatives.
 * At the moment we are not looking to add such functionality, as we wanted to start
   with Gutenberg, considering other plugins are “legacy” for the moment we developed
   this one. This was a product choice in our case.
 * If the demand drives up, we’ll definitely take it into consideration.
 * Thank you very much for your feedback, kind regards!

 * I would take it, if I didn’t know that writing this answer, took more time than
   creating a shortcode for this. So you dont want more users, and development of
   this is discontinued. Thank you for your answer.

 * Dear [@xtradesman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xtradesman/),
 * We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause, as it’s not our intention
   to disrupt daily operations of your website.
 * In the meantime, the best course of action we recommend is to upgrade to Gutenberg.
   We know not every site may be ready for this, but at the end of the day it’s 
   where WordPress is headed to.
 * Thanks for you time!

 * Yes, I understand, although I do not agree, thank you. Gutenberg is an editor
   with whom a large part of the market does not identify at all, so you unnecessarily
   ignore the evolving market of advanced wordpress extensions such as Divi, Elementor,
   etc. where Gutenberg plays only the second violin. Have nice day!
