Timeline Express Features
[timeline-express] )Thanks to the developers for this nice plugin! Very easy to handle and good looking. 🙂
For whatever reason, the text shows up totally unformatted and the block are huge making the timeline totally out of scale.
Do not use this plugin free or paid. I paid for this plugin and received absolutely no response. The author doesn’t reply to contact form messages, message through the website or the support button in the plugin. I had to resort to getting a refund from Paypal because of no response from the author about the 15 day money back guarantee.
I was also charged recently for renewal even though I wrote that I didn’t want to use this plugin anymore.
Better, well coded options are available. Skip this hassle.
Tried to purchase this from their site. Each time it said the credit card transaction failed. So we kept trying and gave up. Credit card statement shows all those transactions went through despite never getting a receipt or license code.
This seems abandoned. Looking into disputing the charges and legal options for fraud.
Tried contacting developer nearly 10 different ways including an active Slack account of theirs. At this point they do not respond and do not refund money. I also see in the terms the subscription is autorenew. We definitely will take legal action including filing a police report and notifying ic3 if the credit card dispute fails.
Unfortunately have to give a 1* review as a result of the customer support. I paid for pro membership, but have been experiences glitches from preventing the plugin from doing what I need.
I have sent 3 emails and started one forum chain and had no response. Very frustrating!
