PRO Version Overview

GDPR compatibility

We are not lawyers. Please do not take any of the following as legal advice.
If you don’t opt to use Bunny Fonts, don’t use Google Analytics, nor collect emails with some 3rd party service like Mailchimp then no resources are loaded or shared with 3rd parties. And nothing is tracked. Opting to use any of those services will result in data sharing/tracking as described in their terms of service.
If you opt to activate your PRO license in the plugin admin, some data will be shared with WebFactory Ltd; that’s clearly noted below the license activation form.

Reviews

Literally just a landing page to pay them

slacker937 August 15, 2024

Garbage plugin. Does nothing and everywhere you look it tells you to upgrade and pay them for any functionality thats worth using.

Worthless. Doesn’t even work when turning on Maintenance Mode

HolyMoley July 30, 2024 1 reply

Doesn’t work. I set up everything, turn on maintenance mode, but the pages haven’t changed at all. Everything stays the same. Waste of time.

VERY Impressive

simple5imon June 22, 2024

For years i’ve been using a different Maintenance/Coming Soon plugin which im sure i cannot mention, but the recent update caused issues, which really annoyed me, so i had to find something else. With a bit of luck, my friend mentioned this plugin and WOW i am very impressive and very happy with it!! He showed me the major benefits of purchasing it, especially the ‘secret link’ so i can show my client their website before anyone else does. Im yet to learn more of this amazing plugin! Oh yeah, so far, no faults! This is brilliant! It annoys me when plugins have faults or broken links grrrr. But this one, no faults. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!

Free version doesn’t work with analytics

delaner June 8, 2024

They don’t seem interested in updating this plugin. Severely outdated and over complicated for what it is. Will not use again.

Very basic features in free version

tedpan May 29, 2024

I felt scammed when using this plugin. The free version almost gave you nothing

USeless

abhibalani May 24, 2024

Free version is useless. You cannot even add custom background. Feel cheated after installing the plugin.
