Does not save the settings

Hi there, actually this was the solution I was looking for, but in my case it’s not working as the assignment in the plugins setting is not saved. Useless for me 🙁 Regards Barcelo

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!

by Nate Zander

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!
