Does not allow users to have multiple roles on one site
by Vladimir Bender·3 years ago

This is the most convenient plugin for everyday work, but… does not allow the user to have multiple roles on the site. This multiplies all of its features by zero.
You can’t use it on membership sites (LMS, marketplace, etc).

Useful, but slows down the editor
by lukascech·3 years ago

The plugin is a good idea and adds a lot of additional features, styles and visibility controls to many Gutenberg elements.

But it slows down the editor significantly. Each click into the paragraph editor or each new line takes a second longer (you can see the delay each time) which makes it a very frustrating editing experience. For example clicking between paragraphs adds at least a 1 second delay – so you feel like you’re working on a 90s computer.

I presume it’s because all the additional styles and options are being loaded.

Guess it’s the price you need to pay for additional features – unless the author finds a way to speed things up (delayed loading, parallel loading etc).

Awesome!
