Really dislike the recommendations
by jirvin·3 years ago
Plugin works okay. Really dislike the additional plugin recommendations that looked more like the kind of recommendations/mandatory plugin requirements that themes use. Also really disliked that it was titled “Extra recommends…” – Extra? What’s Extra? It has nothing to do with the name of this plugin or the developer. I had a moment of panic thinking someone logged in and installed a new theme called Extra. Took deactivating/reactivating plugins one-by-one to track down where the messages was coming from. Very annoying.
Somewhat Simple and useful but not for developers.. No Hooks

add some actions and filters in key places in the code and it will be very useful.
Super Limited Functionality + Lackluster Support
by tjgottfried·4 years ago
I upgraded to premium with the impression it was going to allow me to configure the button with some additional options, but even with that, it’s extremely limited in terms of any customization or utility.
Additionally, support was futile once I started asking questions regarding its functionality. I also requested a refund but to no prevail (actually no answer). I wasn’t even inclined to leave a review until they went ghost. There’s other modals that offer a lot more functionality even on the basic level.
Sry :)
