Unsupported plugin for Php 7.4
by newbiesite·5 years ago
Looks like the plugin developer has abandoned it as the incompatibility hasn’t been addressed for many weeks. This means that users have to avoid ANY plugins created by OTWthemes
Unsupported
by Dagmar·5 years ago
Doesn’t work propperly with PHP 7.4 and PHP7.3. Plugin author doesn’t answer questions, his last response to suppoprt questions is more than three years ago – seems kind of abonned 🙁

Unsupported, buggy
by dmpub·7 years ago
Promising software, but has fatal bugs and looking at the error messages it seems like there are some simple typos in some of their variable name calls.
Unfortunately, the free version of the software is unsupported, so I’ve no choice other than to uninstall and choose another similar product.
