Great plugin. Wonderful support by author.

I have been planning to review Autoptimize for quite some time now, but somehow it kept getting delayed. When we are satisfied with something, we start taking it for granted sometimes, not realizing that we should acknowledge the hard work that went behind it!

Its a great free plugin, works really well with the basic settings to optimize my wordpress site, and whenever there have been conflicts with other plugins, the author has been very prompt and helpful in resolving the issues and giving one-to-one support and responses. He even proactively responds on other plugin support threads if Autoptimize is involved. This really shows his high commitment levels to provide great support to a quality plugin. And I can confirm this based on my own positive experiences in the past.

Keep up the great work Frank in helping and supporting Autoptimize users on WP!

Would rate it 10 stars if I could. Honestly!

Excellent value. I couldn’t stop myself from reviewing this straight away, its that good or rather great. Was looking for such a plugin for a long time. The Free Version is complete in itself, works like a charm for registration in a single country through OTP. It works with 6 different top registration form plugins and there are videos to set it up easily (very thoughtful of the author and helpful to first time users).

I didn’t really need the PRO version features right now (transaction route, multi country and woo-commerce checkout/order SMS), but the price is so reasonable for the PRO Value Packs (7.5$ and 9$ respectively) and that too just a one time fee (no recurring charges), I just went ahead with the highest 9$ pack purchase to support the developer. We get 500 free OTP SMSes and after that, the SMS provider msg91.com has quite reasonable plans depending on the volumes. Just go for it, as the other alternative plugin is too costly and out of reach of startup businesses. Great deal!

Imran/Smit – Your plugin is already great, just one incremental suggestion for the forgot password page button, it says “RESET PASSWORD”, can we change it to say “RESET PASSWORD USING MOBILE SMS OTP” for more clarity, as there is already a “Forgot password link” for resetting through email. Thanks a lot for this wonderful and free plugin!

Excellent Plugin

Works really well and compresses images nicely!

Nice plugin and helpful prompt support

This GOTMLS plugin free version works nicely, and the definitions are regularly updated by the author, Eli. I asked for some guidance on the support forum, and he responded promptly to explain the situation. Like the features/support, and it deserves 5* rating.

I am going to test it out over the next 1-2 months for full scanning, and if it works fast enough for my setup, I would probably consider donating the one time 29$ fee to get automatic updates and core file changes as well to support the author for his efforts and time (even though these features are not really required, the free plugin works well).

Thanks and Keep up the good work!

Nice plugin with awesome support

This free BBQ firewall plugin works nicely in the background, providing protection from threats. But the best part is the truly exceptional author support, who went out of his way to promptly resolve the conflict issue I was facing with BackWPup plugin. Certainly deserves 5* for the support alone on this free plugin. Keep up the great work!

As a minor suggestion, I do suggest incorporating this conflict resolution with BackWPup plugin in the future updates of BBQ firewall directly if possible through adjustments in settings/code, so that it can work out of the box for everyone who is using both these plugins. But nevertheless, the author is a great guy, and provides awesome support!

Cheers,

Wonderful plugin…and excellent support…for Free

I have tried a lot many social plugins, but this is the best without any doubt, both in terms of the features it provides for free, and the timely support provided by the plugin developer…I usually don’t rate plugins but had to make an exception for this one…its that good…go for it…you wont regret it..team heateor keep rocking..cheers.

Works well but needs improvement

This plugin is easy to use and works well with the basic features. However, a couple of important critical improvements are needed in the free version:

1. If using a grid view, there is no option to choose one of the taxonomies (“category” or “tag”) to display in the meta data of each post. Its either both or none. Just like date and author, it should be up to user to display if they want only one of them.

2. In the grid view, there should be an option to convert all post images of varying sizes to equal size, so that they look better as thumbnails side by side in grid view.

3. There should be an option for the isotope layout in the free version, which will enable users to quickly shift through categories or tags within each post grid view.

I think this plugin has the potential to be the best plugin in its category, given its ease of use, and I hope the above features can be implemented in the free version. I am rating the free version a 3, as its a good plugin, with some scope for improvement.
