  • This Plugin Works

    This plugin works great, not much issues. Only thing is that, the settings page for this plugin is empty, to use it you must use a shortcode. But that shortcode is not included anywhere, not on the settings, not even on the description of wordpress. At least put the shortcode on the settings, I had to search on Google to find the shortcode. One more thing, if you can enable a way to show at least a name of a person under the Avatar. Fix those I'll place the remaining star.. Great plugin and thank you!
