 * I was checking how this plugin works and I noticed that you either need to place
   shortcodes in the content or code in your theme.
 * My question would then be what happens when I uninstall the plugin? As far as
   I understand, I would be left with a bunch of ugly looking shortcodes all over
   the place. Even worse with code in the theme, since ab_press_optimizer() would
   be undefined and throw a PHP error (unless I use if ( function_exists() ) ).
 * Have you considered this? Do you have any suggestions?
