  • Good Coding but not useful

    Plugin v0.6.2.4 using WordPress 6.1.1 First, let me compliment on creating a plugin that does not create any warnings or errors in the hosting error log. Always a "touch of class" when that happens. With that said, and correct me if I'm wrong, although the free version does allow for some options to carry over from page to page, Text resizing does not. For that reason I cannot use it as it would be too frustrating for visitors. I know the Pro version provides for it but I cannot justify the cost of it.

  • Excelent plug in for Accessibility

    I've used some accessibility widgets for the web site I am developing but this is the best. It works perfect with screen readers and it zooms in a lot. It is the best for helping sites to meet some of the WCAG 2.2 criteria. Note: I have low vision (blindness)

  • Slows down the page + rude author

    I bought this plug. The author of this plugin is rude. He does not reply to the e-mail! When he writes back, it is in one sentence. As if he didn't feel like it. He does not check the advice he gives to the client. The plugin slows down the WP backend a lot! To avoid

  • Read before buying: Plugin author does not respond

    Warning for people wanting to buy this plugin. The author is unresponsive. He will not respond to your emails even though you pay for support. It's been 5 days so far. Will keep updating my experience so others don't have to go through the same thing.
