  • Was a great plugin...

    I loved this plugin. However, it recently stopped working and they have not updated it in months. Now elementor offers their own loop functionality so I will switch to that.

  • Great plugin but seriously needs to be updated to recent versions of WordPress

    We need the people behind this plugin to really become active in the community. Been a while since an update happened. It's an amazing plugin but can we trust using it on the long-term?
