    Thanks, just for this explanation I changed rating; that shows a support of customer and shows the roadmap understands the current state of project and how customers experience the product from a designer point of view, I will follow project and look forward to a unified approach that has customer buying pro blocks and getting full theme features or buying premium theme and getting pro block features, it won’t look good to customers who realize both are under one roof to double dip when they are willing to pay for a premium/pro license. If you can work that out and get deeper in UI controls of style elements and imo extend the responsive controls beyond gutenberg 3 viewport support, you will have a real winner that can draw away from projects like Elementor who are riddled with poor 3rd party partners who play their own games.

    I have now found a bug in responsive controls for table element. I guess i need to report it to GB team.

    Thanks for the response, don’t take me wrong, I did see things that are superior to Elementor, especially better organization of UI components. I’d have to compare to the free version of Elementor to know the deltas on responsive management, personally I believe the responsive aspect of a site and especially to a designer is at the top of the list in deciding on which theme’s and builders to use.

    For this reason alone, I would recommend to not make responsive management tools that are Pro or Premium featured freely available. This is how you can garner market share, even though a designer is using your free version now, he will likely have a project where he will require Premium features, don’t make him buy premium to design a good basic site for his or hers client.

    Myself and my developer have had to do more hands-on tweaking than I would think is reasonable for a Premium theme, I don’t believe I should also be required to buy a Premium page builder on top of the theme as the theme is coming from the same financially benefited group. I installed the GB product because it seemed a reasonable thing to do as it was presented, and it has been helpful, but I never had the intent of buying a pro version after paying for a Premium theme license. You may technically have divided the project into two product areas, but the public will still see you as one.

    I had thought about and looked at using Elementor with the GP premium theme but I could see that was not going to work well and they naturally did not play well together and I’m not sure who’s doing that was, my guess is Elementor team as I really have disdain for how they run their project, But they have all the free functionality needed to make a good responsive site and they have a strong 3rd party community extending their products, this is what has gotten them to the top, BUT they are ready to be toppled, and that will only happen with strong support of the designer community and designers many times need free software to build low cost sites, but would be within their reasonable expectation to have the site generate a full set for responsive viewports for desktop, laptop, tablet and mobile, which I don’t see here. So my recommendation is to make responsive generation and tweaking an easy and free experience, this will get you a larger following, yes we can tweak with hand coding but that is time consuming and causes us to loose in the end financially.

    I think this will help you, as new visitors come by this project will be up to date and the other will not.

    I”m finding this issue still exists, actually I came here looking for a replacement of “User Menus” plugin which seems to be at the same impasse, 3 major releases out dated, is there a known reason why this type of plugin will no longer pass testing?

    Wow, I was about to use this plugin, thanks guys for posting this, it seems plugin developer is not responsive to this issue and at minimum has not come into the thread with feedback to mitigate the concern, that is a red flag for me.

    First let me ask, if your plugin is enabled and admin not having gone through the configuration process to use it, can test email output be sent? I will check for hardening based on your response, thank you.

    I have to disagree with your response as I have just gone through this, the integration corrupts the Facebook Shop metadata and Facebook support is requiring Commerce customers to remove the integration and delete the Shop and setup a new shop from scratch without the integration.

    I was explicitly told by Facebook Commerce support they are no longer supporting new integrations with WooCommerce, honestly looking at the history or technical issues reports and the low rating of the integration, I’m not surprised FB has banned Automattic from doing new integrations. The Automattic project has shot themselves in the foot and done a good job of it.

    Here also are the links to Facebook and WooCommere announcements:

    This is the wrong method to use for managing notifications on dashboard, you are violating WP best practices and ignore user preferences being set through WP UI. Not only this but WHY are you pushing a HUGE Black Friday banner on dashboard a week after Black Friday is finished.

    I am still trying to get Duplicator to migrate the database, this is really frustrating, I think it would have been much easier to just ftp the files and take some other approach, this plugin is just not a good answer to setting up an install on wamp.

    I get it, I probably shouldn’t have used the term ‘pre-sale’ it’s really a pre-install question, I plan on using the free version first, but will reach out to dev directly, thanks.

    Also, I was testing another review plugin and discovered it was not designed for responsive mobile, is this plugin responsive to mobile devices sizes?

    Wow, this is concerning “Lite Connect captures entries, encrypts them, and stores them securely in the cloud.” this means the user input is never stored locally in WP db as metadata or post. So the idea here is that nothing locally unless you pay, only a pass input values from user form data to email, is that correct?
