  • no support at all

    It was nice. it's a good tool Use it with Authentic them. sadly no support at all even on Php errors report. will have to change after years of use. what a shame

  • Makes site complete! Great plugin

    It's making the wordpress site powerfull. I have a suggestion, please make the html content generated from the plugin like social links, buttons valid with accessiblity features would be great.

  • Mostly Great But Some Features Are Lazy

    The plugin is pretty good with the integration of everything, especially if your theme takes advantage of it. Some of the features are lazy and don't work well. The Tiled, or Justified Gallery is very poorly done. It crops your images and requires a mix of horizontal and vertical images for it to look halfway decent. It would be actually useful if they implemented it more like Jetpack does the tiled galleries. It's a shame because their gallery looks really nice and clean. For SEO it would also be nice if the images from the featured posts on the sidebar ware scaled properly.
