  • Excellent plugin

    I had a lot of issues with spam lately. I didn't know WPPOOL offered this amazing plugin for free. I used it on my site and I am extremely happy with it. Thank you guys

  • bugged plugin

    I opened a ticket informing that the woocomerce plugin, when completing the order, places the captcha in the login option when it is activated on this page, instead of the checkout form. In addition to this problem, I didn't have any sales for 10 days, and today I discovered that the problem is due to the captcha making it impossible to log in to WooCommerce, generating an error on the page: wp-admin/admin-ajax.php

  • No simple installation

    The description of the installation for sure does not work with my theme. Not easy to find the 2-3 codes to be replaced. Can't say how it works, since it is too much work to install.
