Needs updating

I'd give a better review but it crashes if you try to update wordpress or the plugin...

Doesn't work

After activating the plugin I've couldn't access to WP desktop panel. I've had to rename the plugin folder to have access to my panel.Very annoying.

Still Causing major issues

Still causing the fatal errors it has been. Recently updated four days ago, but only compatible up to 6.0.3, whereas Wordpress itself is 6.1.1. Coming from Automattic you would think they would have fixed it by now. Hopefully soon. Until then, dueces.

Causes a critical error in admin page

Fortunately I installed it in a staging environment first. There is several support threads about this, but the developer seems to be ignoring them.

Completely Broken

Originally I said: Overall it adds nice features, but it has a massive bug in that you can not edit or create Pages while this plugin is active. You have to turn it off to edit pages otherwise you get an error page of "The editor has encountered an unexpected error." This really needs to be fixed. But that's now moot. Now the plugin entirely breaks the site so you can't log in. Fortunately WP has recovery mode to get around this and remove this piece of junk. This should be pulled from the plugins as broken and destructive until such time as a new functional version would be made.
