Works perfectly and support is great!
by webknecht·2 months ago
The plugin first worked perfectly for months then suddenly misbehaved.
After getting in contact with the support team they told me to switch off Elementor’s element caching. This did the trick and the plugin again worked like it should!
Great job, developers and support team!!!
not working

dont’t use it… plugin not working properly
Works – I can hide “Sign Out” to Logged in users
by oakandrocks·2 years ago
Works as intended.
Even if the droplist only shows “Logged-in Users”
The additional “Show/Hide” toggle works both ways.
Effectively allowing you to show/hide any elementor widget/section/column.
Thanks a bunch broski.
It does exactly what it says
by danielepais·2 years ago
Exactly what I needed. This little plugin is perfect for showing / hiding widgets on Elementor according to whether they are logged in or not.
Slow Support
by snoopydouglas·2 years ago·1 reply
Purchased the premium version of the plugin. Had a quick query regarding search engine blocking / crawlers as it wasn’t articulated in their documentation. Been waiting ages for a response. Will be looking to process a refund shortly as the plugin is useless if we can’t get support for a critical feature.
