Not Responsive

8o% of users use mobile devices. Responsive should be standard on all plugins but it is not. The same goes for this one. Out of date This topic was modified 7 years, 6 months ago by amorino198

So easy to manage

Excellent plugin, updated to the last version of wp (4.8). Widget auto width needs to be improved for responsive.
