As a Plugin Should Be!
Works as expected. Very stable plugin. No annoying reminders. Makes things at classiccarsszone more structured. Superb.
Good but…
It’s a very good ans simple visual editor, too bad that is missing the possibility to add an image swap (rollover, mouseover). You can just add friezed images.
