Closing the door
by designwise·3 months ago

Finally a way to slam the door on countries whose only goal is to hack.

nice and functional plugin
by wildone1600·1 year ago

I work with international customers and this plugin helps me a lot getting the local data.
Tip: give some examples how to use the shortcodes and GEO Controller menu text does not explain it shows all the shortcodes. Try to think as a dummy. Makes it a lot easier to understand.
Thanks anyway for your plugin dev.

Awesome plugin with geo-settings. Thank you
by bogdan547·1 year ago

I recently used the Geo Controller plugin, and I want to share my impressions. I want to note right away that I liked the flexibility of the settings that allow you to adapt the service to your needs. This is especially important when working with clients from different countries.

The Geo Controller service provides a user-friendly interface for managing geographic data, which greatly simplifies working with international projects.

Overall, I was satisfied with the service and recommend it to those who are looking for a reliable plugin to work with geographical data.

Best in the Geo plugins
by sumitsharmawp·1 year ago

Always gives precise result. This is the best geo location plugin. I started with their free version and moved to a paid one. Thank you, team. keep it up.

Does the job well… BUT…
by koandj·1 year ago·1 reply

First, the documentation should definitely improve: elements are missing, implementation is not as clear, same with options (i.e. can I use the original name? Like Firenze instead of Florence), etc. Lots can be done there.
And it’s a bit annoying that it uses square brackets [ ] rather than curly {{ }}, because when you copy and paste, Gutenberg automatically converts the content to a shortcode, and this is no shortcode.
Also, I live in London, but if I write include="London" it fails to recognise me because it believes my City is Westminster, which is rather the borough.
The 1000 hits a day limit is not going to work for many: simply including the code in a post and testing it already consumed 54 hits (7 upon opening the settings page the first time).

Anyway, the plugin does its job well. And I found that you can use it for more than just text:
if you write a paragraph with [cfgeo include=""], then any amount of content in any Gutenberg block, and then close another paragraph with a [/cfgeo], the entire content gets managed by the plugin. So that’s great.
If everything I noted above can be sorted out, it’s definitely a 5-star plugin.

Ah, one more thing… Give an option to remove the content in the top admin bar, for those who find it unnecessary and annoying.

Update: Ran out of the 1000 hits in just 1 week. Tested this on 1 old page on a very niche blog getting just about a dozen visitors a day (the page itself got only 2 visits in the period and the plugin is blocked on the other pages with Asset CleanUp), so obviously it’s not a real match and it seems miscoded on purpose to convince you to upgrade…
Guess it’s not worth using this instead of other plugins then, unless you really need it and have the money.
Downgraded from 3 stars to 1.
