Q: Plugin Uninstallation and Link Removal
If I install the free/paid version of the Internal Linking of Related Contents plugin and later uninstall it, will all the related link boxes be removed from my posts automatically, or will they remain in the content?
Thank you!

If you deactivate the plugin, the related posts will no longer be visible as the site's content will not be modified
Hope it helps

Hello
The plugin does not modify existing content to insert related posts, but adds them using a WordPress hook. For this reason, if you deactivate the plugin, the related posts added via this hook will no longer be displayed.
This approach also ensures that any more relevant related content created later can still be taken into account for the current post.
Hope it helps
Best regards

Either way, I have had a plugins like this before and they don't last forever and it always ends up causing me more work and issues down the road. I told myself never again will I be reliant on a plugin that can go away at any time.
