Works Well

Needed SVG upload support, and this plugin did the job. Very lightweight and easy to use. No issues so far. Some additional settings would be nice, but overall, it’s quite solid.

Good plugin, but missing …

Would have given a 5 star, but it seems support is missing for the taxonomy / terms section (like in categories) upload for SVG images. Keep getting an error that the upload isn’t supported. Hopefully
