Powerful and totally trusted plugin
After installed the plugin for one week, the functions combining weixin login, follow and unfollow, customized QR code are working fine. A little bit misunderstandings problems have been solved after contact with developer. Glad to installed it and WP weixin need to be recommended to more people. BTW, guys, you may be very interested in a foreigner who programmed applications for local Chinese users with totally understanding the local APPs rules, and even more, the China internet laws suggestions. Many thanks.

Very good Plug-in for WeChat Integration
Great plug in, with very detail instructions and step to step guides. Integrates nicely with WeChat, and WeChat Pay. Works great out of the box!

The Best Wechat Plugin
This is the best plugin ever . I m running a social websites for Expats in China and this plugin is indisputably TOP 1 for sites needing WeChat integration .Before landing on this plugin ,I have been back and forth installing and deleting plugins claiming to do the job but none could solve my quest for a smooth and clean wechat integration.It does everything exactly as detailed and best of all the plugin is unbelievably FREE OF CHARGE On installation the support was just amazing.The author helped me getting it setup at every step .I think the plugin definitely deserves a decent pro price. Thanks again for your awesome plugin
