Ticket #55883, comment 32
initial v1 3 3 > Due to there not being a feasible path to fully switching to a new function name, the rich history and widespread use of `do_shortcode()`, the low use of `apply_shortcodes()`, I would therefore actually suggest to deprecate `apply_shortcodes()` again. There's no need to keep a rarely used alias that Core itself will not be able to use and that plugin developers have not started to use in 6 or 7 WP releases. 4 4 5 Deprecating `apply_shortcodes()` sounds like the next logical step. But even if it is deprecated it cannot ever be removed. So perhaps the docs can be updated a bit and it can remain as an alias. Extenders would still have the choice to use it . However the chances to confuse newcontributors will be super low.5 Deprecating `apply_shortcodes()` sounds like the next logical step. But even if it is deprecated it cannot ever be removed.
