 * Hello!
 * I see that User Shortcodes has not been updated for over 2 years now, and I was
   wondering if it will get any future updates and be maintained with new features,
   and most importantly new **security **updates.
 * Since many hack attacks rely on holes and vulnerabilities of plugins, using outdated
   plugins could be a a big risk for getting your site hacked.
 * Please let me know.
    Thanks!
