{{< deprecated-in 0.139.0 >}} Use the SHORTCODE.Store method instead.

This is a soft deprecation. This method will be removed in a future release, but the removal date has not been established. Although Hugo will not emit a warning if you continue to use this method, you should begin using SHORTCODE.Store as soon as possible.

Beginning with v0.139.0 the SHORTCODE.Scratch method is aliased to SHORTCODE.Store.
