DIY Denial of Service attack. No support
-
This could be an absolutely amazing plugin, it can do awesome things, but it has one major issue which is causing sites to be overloaded and return an Error 500. When a timer expires on an open page the plugin causes that page to start reloading every second, overloading the server and taking the site offline. It is essentially a DYI DoS attack.
This has been pointed out in a couple of support threads, dating back as much as 2 years ago, which remain unanswered. It has taken me a long time to figure out that this plugin was the cause of my site issues, and I know it has caused me a lot of sales from frustrated customers. Until this is resolved and the author starts to respond to support requests I would recommend giving the plugin a miss.
