Overall it’s not a bad plugin, but:
1. the template everyone would probably wanna use (and use most often) is not free, probably on purpose and i understand why, the developer needs to eat too, but this plugin is not ready to be sold yet.
2. there are no padding or margin options for elements/blocks, they are not even available for the PRO version.
3. what you design and what you end up with are slightly different, mainly the problem is everything shifts up about 15-20px compared to your design, this might be caused by the theme i used. I’m sure there are ways to stop the theme’s styling from influencing the popup’s styling.
4. the Preview function only shows changes from the last save, so if you open a template, work on it for 1 hour and hit preview you will see none of that work, this is not how WordPress post and pages previews work. It’s still helpful just not consistent with WordPress.(i guess it reminds you to save)
5. the default font is 13px ? are you kidding ? that’s way to small, should be 15-16px.
6. the way you edit text is all sorts of f*cked up, there are basically 3 ways, once when you click on it, you have some very basic and global settings, then you have the Advanced Editor with more features, but none of them works with Shift+Enter to move the text down 1 line but not add a space like normally hitting Enter would, this can only be done in the 3rd way to edit text, the text/html view/editor which you get to by double clicking on the text, if this didn’t exist i would have stopped using this plugin in 3 minutes.
7. The popup roundness and the border roundness don’t match, so no matter what radius you set it to there will always be a gap between them in the corners.
8. and lastly the biggest problem is the frequency settings, they are horrible.
If you set it to show 5 times, it will show 5 times in the same session, so if someone visits your site, sees the popup on the home page and closes it, the very next page they go to they will see it again, and again, and again, until they hate your guts and will never visit your site ever again.
Setting it to “completes goal” basically means ‘show it once’ (per lifetime), which is the most usable one, but my clients would prefer it to show once a day, a setting like that is kinda what the Pro version offers, so without that Pro feature this plugin is kinda unusable, unless you like annoying your visitors and making sure they never return.

Don’t get me wrong there are plenty of good things about it too, like the fact that you can design a mobile version of the popup, which can be similar to the desktop version or completely different.
The tour at the beginning was a nice touch but poorly made, i stopped watching after 10 seconds because i couldn’t follow it anymore, reading the quickly changing text in the bottom while also trying to see where the cursor is moving to and doing on page is just not doable.
I also like the different types you can have, like the topbar, etc.

The fact that old free Graphene features are now premium plugins also doesn’t sit right with me, even if i don’t need them, but i understand why.

Also why aren’t the additional recommended plugin links, install links instead of download links ? i don’t need all the additional steps to slow me down and to take up space.

Graphene also had very impressive color options, much better than even paid themes, apparently something like that is coming soon, maybe I’ll give Franz Josef another try when that happens, hopefully the slider will also be usable by then.

EDIT (26 months later):
Seems nothing much has changed, still no color options plugin, none of the structure on the front page (below the slider) is actually part of the theme (unlike with other free themes, where it is), as far as i understand all that was built using the premium Stacks plugin (also by Silverks) which looks a lot like the Elementor plugin (which is free).

I installed the Additional Options plugin, but even with that, the options/settings are very limited, for ex. there isn’t a single typography setting, the only color you can change is the background color, so if you have a dark logo forget it.

Would love to hear your opinion on what i’ve got so far on my new blog. In particular i would like to hear your opinions on the blog overview page/home page and single post template.

I’m primarily looking for feedback like:

• Is there anything lacking from the structure? Do you miss any kind of navigation or other features?
• Does the primary and secondary navigation make sense to you?
• Possible usability issues
• How about page load speed?
• Is the typography easily readable and aestethically pleasing on your monitor?
• Do you like the design so far?
• Do you have any ideas for improvement?

Please include your browser version if you find any bugs.

– A big thanks to anyone who gives this a quick look-over and help me find all the little flaws and bugs on my new site

I’m new to wordpress. I have a ‘Coming Soon’ page on my URL and at the same time I’d like to work and twiddle with my main theme over about a month until it’s ready to replace the Coming Soon’ page.

How can I do this? I use c-panel and all I seem to be able to do is switch templates, it only lets me select one or the other. If I make changes to one template, and switch away from it back to the ‘Coming Soon’ theme, will I loose all my edits?

Any suggestions much appreciated.
