Free plugin that then asks for premium license to access updates
by dazman88·4 months ago·1 reply
If you offer a free plugin on the WP reppo, don’t then turn around and ask users to pay to access security patches.
Solid plugin, but a few issues
by julienseo71·1 year ago
Very decent plugin, but it does seem to have some issues with its design.
On my website, using the slider left to right seems to have a tendancy to highlight the whole block in blue. I’m guessing the browser is trying to select the thing like it would with a block of text.
On mobile, different issues. Zooming in on the Block and using the slider results in the whole pageview sliding left or right.
I’m not a coder so I struggle to explain. But there does seem to be an issue where “selecting” the slider doesn’t lock the mouse in it. Which would explain the issues described above.
Hopefully can be fixed in a future update. Cheers !

The small problem is that a blue overlay appears when scrolling too fast with the PC
Excellent

Does exactly what I expected – nothing more. No unnecessary features. Great.
Lots of settings, but lags badly on iPhone
by maltmann·2 years ago
I was impressed by the amount of settings. Design is also nice.
On iPhone, while playing around with two of those blocks, the phone lagged incredibly bad until Safari didn’t respond at all for 20 seconds. Unacceptable. Switched to another plugin.
