Clever little plug-in

Have used this for many many years, can’t do without it. There are other things out there with folders and such, but I love the simplicity of it and being able to see all my pages, posts and! products

Redelijk

Eenvoudige plugin. Op zich redelijk goed. Geeft goeie ingeklapte lijst van alle items. Maar je kunt ze niet sorteren. Ook geen paginatie. De zoekfunctie werkte bij mij niet goed.
