Just one recommendation: add info regarding JetEngine redirect fix to the FAQ section of the plugin, to resolve any confusion like I had with homepage redirect.

So easy to use
by aizathawari·3 years ago

This plugin is so easy to use, no isses with custom post types in Crocoblock Jetengine, or Metabox.io.

It worked as advertise, thank you for this.
