  • Nice plugin with some unique features

    The plugin works well and got better with recent updates.I like the statistics and the quick filters especially. Also nice, the gallery block to create a gallery from a folder.

  • Not a finished plugin

    This is not a finished plugin. Frustrating to use. It's really in alpha stage, not in beta. Has promise if it will do what it says it does.
