Works awesome

Crazy cool plugin! It works great (also with page builders like Elementor). Thank you.

Nice tool

Great tool. It would’ve been nice if it could support bulk upload of featured images, as a gallery (just like in woocommerce product galleries). Thanks!

A must-have

Adds so much more flexibility for designing a post, or displaying content in different contexts (home page, single post, archive). Thank you for this great plugin!

Almost perfect!!!

Great Plugin, very useful for big shops… The only thing missing for being perfect is ‘Menu Order’ option in ‘Populate from taxonomy’.
