Plugin broke my whole site twice!!

staedeli September 2, 2019

After activating the plugin, 2 pages built with Toolset completely stopped working, afer disabling this plugin, they still didn’t work and after deleting this plugin the site is still broken and the Toolset layouts display errors. I couldn’t believe it so I restored a Backup and did it again, same behaviour. Stay away from this plugin!

Works well!
