Now it’s just bullshit – Edit: Problem solved
-
Since the original developer ChattyMango resold the plugin, it’s just bullshit.
In the design theme “Accordion”, the previously neatly and clearly separated keywords are now suddenly and unexpectedly raped by the current development team in such a way that the entries are now displayed as unwanted and thus confusing keyword clouds.
The documentation for customizing the free version has been removed by the current developers.
ChattyMango had provided a few code snippets in the WP backend to refine the display of the chosen design style a bit.
The current developers apparently want to drive the user to buy the premium version for the sake of profit.
It is already clear to me that the development of a plugin is a lot of work and that it should also be paid for with the premium version. But I don’t need the extensive features of the premium version. But for the free version of the plugin, I would like to get back at least the rudimentary customization options that were previously available.
With the takeover and the latest updates, the code has apparently been messed up to such an extent that the plugin is slowing down the website. Loading times of more than 4 seconds are unacceptable with the plug-in enabled. I tried to delete the new version and then install the version 1.4, which was satisfactory at the time. Version 1.4 has been installed and loading times have decreased dramatically. But the messed-up accordion view with the stupid cloud of buzzwords stuck with me.
But the messed-up accordion view with the stupid cloud of buzzwords stayed with me. Of course, I can’t verify how deep the current version digs into the system.
I want the Accordion theme to be able to see the list view again and the loading times to be optimized.
In other words, if you manage to screw up a previously unique plugin like that, then you should be able to get rid of the hopelessly screwed up nonsense in the interest of the users.
And again provides proper documentation.
And above all, the helpful (example) codes for individual customization.
Then there are also asterisks again.

Edit: Problem solved
After several hours of searching and with a lot of patience, I was now able to solve the problem I described myself and would like to share the solution with interested parties who have the same problem:
Navigate to the menus in the WP backend.
Find the “MLA Text” menu and open the widget to paste the following code into the text box (only the bold text in the square brackets):
‘#’ [tag_groups_accordion smallest= 14 largest=14 separator=<br/>] ‘#’
Now the keywords embedded in the Accordion template are no longer displayed as a confusing cloud, but as a clean list from each other and, above all, separated from each other.
In the documentation designed by the developer, although very extensive, there are some “shortcuts” or .PHP snippets.
However, nowhere is it explained where and how to insert the code in order to be able to make such individual adjustments. At least I didn’t find them – if these hints were noted somewhere – despite my intensive and attentive reading for self-help.
I increase my rating to 3 stars for the user-unfriendly documentary.
For the plugin I give (also to myself) 5 stars because it works NOW the way I want it to.
