It’s a bit hard to find ‘where to start’ with the plugin, but once one found the documentation (you kept it well hidden ;)) it’s actually very easy to use.
I love the plugin, love how it works and the simplicity of it. What I *do* miss however is an integration with marketing mail platforms. I think especially in the area of fundraising, the donators like to be kept in the loop’ and it would be great if there would be some integration with email marketing providers like MailChimp or ActiveCampaign.
And I might have missed it, but a simple ‘thank you’ email to a contributor would be a great function too.
So actually a 4.5 star, but since I can’t give half stars, I gave you 5… Hoping you’ll add those extra features 😉
I like it’s simplicity. For first timers like me, it would be helpful to include a demo version illustrating the features and functionalities. Support also seems scanty. Elaborate support documentation including step by step configuration explanations would help. Also the campaign form needs more custom fields, especially on Content and backers’contributions
