Immediately helpful - well done!
This is handy and very well done plugin that fits perfectly into my workflow. I've tried a few other methods (including my own), and this is much better. And it has just the right amount options and tools - you can tell it was well conceived and implemented.

BIG timesaver!
I didn't realize how much I bounced around - edit post, save, edit the next post, save... This plugin saves a lot of time by taking me straight to the next post. It's in my starter site! Use it once, and you'll miss it when you don't have it.

Great little productivity boost!
Such a simple but useful plugin! I didn’t realize how much time I was wasting going back to the posts list after every update. Save & Go makes the whole process much smoother, especially when working with multiple posts or custom post types. Really handy little plugin! Definitely going into my dev stack.
