• Hi,

    this message appeared here today:

    This plugin has been closed as of January 26, 2021 and is not available for download. This closure is temporary, pending a full review.

    What happened, what does it mean?

    Thanks for the clarification.

  • This is a nonsensical restriction by the repo admin team.

    Pretty much all plugins restrict features unless a pro license is purchased, including Automattic’s own Jetpack plugin.

    There is no mention of the word “trial” or even the idea of a trial for the free version.

    It works as-is with a 10 folder limit (not a trial), limit.

    The free plugin does not expire as you would expect a trial to do.

    Leaving 3,000+ active users in limbo because of a bad interpretation is a bad failure of management.

    I’m very surprised that this plugin was removed from the repo because of the folder limit. How is that making it a trial? This is MESSED UP and is a really bad call by the WP repo team. This decision should be reversed.

    @tekfused :

    I agree but the question is: how do we users find who to contact and make our voices and concerns heard?

    If there is a known point of contact, please broadcast it here and I for one will strongly advocate for the reinstatement of the FREE non-trial version.

    It appears that the site management is quite capricious in their selective interpretation of “the rules” and ignoring the dev when he tried to clarify.

    A big “sheesh” for this mess.

    I wonder what’s taking so long, it’s been nine months!

    He’s communicated recently on the plugin’s FB page indicating a significant release is due any time now.
