  • Very Poor! Requires many plugins!

    I bought Academy LMS and tried to use these starter templates...there are about a dozen starter templates on their website but no way to download them. There's just this plugin. It only provides 3 templates none of which are on their website. And...get this!...The BIG PROBLEM here is that when you try installing it to a site with Academy LMS install you will find that you'll need 6 more plugins including Elementor, Contact Form 7, etc. that are to be installed! Elementor instead of their own product aBlocks? These starter templates are useless! I don't want to have to buy Elementor and addons as I have no intention of using them! WHY should they be necessary for the starter sites? Why only 3 sites? WHERE ARE the 15 templates on the Academy LMS website? I'm suspecting "bait and switch" scam here! I regret buying Academy LMS and do not recommend it!
