Hi @xacur,
thanks for your feedback.
Like many other plugins, it’s basically an advertisement of a product, this free version of the plugin does not much, but it’s full of notices and links to buy the full version and addons.
I have talked to other developers on WordCamps and also compare the advertisement with other plugins. Smaller and big once like Yoast SEO.
From my feeling and feedback from others I have found a great mix of free and pro and the advertisement.
I’m open for feedback. All basic functions are free and only advanced stuff is pro. You can create, edit and delete posts. Also manage the posts in BuddyPress with the BuddyForms Members extension.
Create Registration forms and contact forms without restrictions.
Please let me know what function you think should be free and I will rethink it.
No, wait, you can’t even buy the full version, it’s a subscription.
This is not correct. Sorry for your confusion. We do offer Monthly Annual and LIFETIME Plans. If a Monthly or Annual subscription is not for you. go with the lifetime.
In addition, it created this huge notice on the top of the admin to ask you leave this review. It’s really annoying.
–> You can just dismiss the message an dit will never come to your eyes.
I really hate this tendency of plugins that convert my admin in their stores for me to buy their things. But specially this one is ridiculous.
I do not think this plugin is specially annoying with advertisement. I’m sorry for your frustration. But I ask for your understanding. We all need to make a living and if I not make some income from the plugin I can not maintenance it like I do at the moment.
In an ideal world all would work with donations. But thats not the case. I work nearly 10 years with WordPress and we have gone a long way. This days people start to prefer paid plugins because they can be sure someone take care of the maintenance and support the plugin.
I hope this answer helps you. Please let me know if you have any questions left. I like to help. If you could change your review would help me a lot. Its a motivation for me. If you really think the plugin its a 1 star only and have no benefit ok, but please take a moment and rethink your review.
Cheers,
Sven
