  • Finger weg von diesem Unfug

    Das Plugin ist komplette Zeitverwendung. Braucht man noch nicht einmal ausprobieren. 15 Minuten meiner Zeit verbrannt weil jemand diesen Quatsch in den Pluginstore hochgeladen hat.

  • Displaying correct imprint information on my website

    This plugin enables me to manage my imprint information at one central place and it takes care when legal requirements in Germany change, so I get notified to update my imprint information.

  • Sinnloses Plugin

    Finger weg Rausgeschmissen Geld. Hab IMPRESSUM Plus gekauft. Und das teil taugt null, null. den text den ich da eingebe positioniert die am über ein shortcut auf die Seite im dem den sc einsetzt. Ich frage mich was das für einen Sinn hat. Dann trag ich doch den Text gleich auf die Seite. Wofür brauche ich so ein Schwachsinn.

  • Wo erfolgt der "rechtliche" Abgleich?

    Wo, wodurch, womit erfolgt eigentlich der "Abgleich" des Plugins, ob sich "rechtlich" etwas geändert hat?

  • Nice little helper

    Whenever I set up a new website, first thing I do is to add a page for imprint and privacy policy. With this plugin I don't have to detour to one of the usual imprint generators and can directly insert all necessary information into the input fields of the plugin. The input masks are well structured, everything is clear and simple. That Impressum "will update your legal texts either on it’s own or asks for your help if the changes can’t be made automatically" (as the readme claims) is an excellent service. Amazing, that this is free for freelancers. With an additional option field to "show a little love" I would be happy to add a link to the plugin to my webpages.

  • On the safe side

    Everything works exactly as promised and the support is excellent. With this plugin you are on the safe side regarding German imprints.
