Incase your wondering if you have found the right plugin to display your ‘Testimonials’; let me say…absolutely!
I was having a few problems ‘tweaking’ the plugin in suiting my needs; not the plugin fault, just my understanding in implementing it.
So I contacted the Author…
Within an hour, he logged into my dashboard, sorted it all out for me and done!
In short, how many Authors out there who would give up their time to help in this way, especially when your using the free version, right?
And that’s the point…IF all authors did this, how quickly would you sell your premium version?
I would like to see plugins as a standard like Wordfence, have an automatic routine that completely uninstalls a plugin so as not to leave bloated tables behind.
Maybe there’s a plugin for that as yet, not found one.
So the bottom line…This Testimonials plugin is for you knowing you have the full support of the Author!
Good Jobs Chris!!

I do like this plugin because if you have any links out there and you have since updated your site, those links would be no good i.e. will create tons of 404’s not least to mention the SEO impact!!!
But I could not get my head around it using the wildcards etc which then simply caused me tons of other issues with links not working, redirect to wrong pages.
So I uninstalled it..all working again…
Not the plugins fault, just my inability to understand all the various permutations on how to use the blighter!
I did e-mail the author but I guess he was too busy…
Other than that….like it but sadly, not for me.

Like this, but could not see an option to select where the data is kept?
I want to use my own WP db and not use third party services so as to send my own mail to users.
Is this possible?
Many Thanks

Hi,
Looking for something similar that would create an image slider info box on a listing category layout
Nice job plugin

Hi,
What a neat little plugin this is…
One query, when I click on a ‘tag’ it goes to a blank page?
i.e. http://www.mywebsite/tags/dogs
I was wondering if there is a wp setting I need to adjust/turn on that upon click of a ‘tag’, it will take the user to that tag result?
Nice job ????
2022-02-11 at 18:18:33Project
Nice plugin, good tutorial.
I would like to see :
1) Option for links below the form to be removed
2) Option to remove text above the form (just the form)
3) Option to set secret question for ‘lost password’
4) Option to set all forms to remain within the theme/colour layout, including ‘reset password’ form
5) Capture on ALL forms, including login
6) Option to allow other plugins i.e. conditions/terms check box to be used.
One final thing, not sure its me but,
Whilst the lost password works, the other forms are not showing/replacing existing forms?
Hope my 6 suggestions (unless there are already implemented) are helpful
Other than that, I like it ????

Like this, clean and easy
Would be even better if you could also use it as a simple announcement without subscribe feature.
Nice job!

Like this plugin, but have a small question :
Using Shortcode :
[ihrss-gallery type=”GROUP1″ w=”100%” h=”150″ speed=”1″ bgcolor=”#FFFFFF” gap=”5″ random=”YES”]
However, the length is not liquid?
When screen resolution increases, the scroller does not fit 100%
Tried adjust shortcode to no avail?
Good job though ????
2022-02-11 at 18:19:14Project
Like this plugin…
Two small things if I may :
1) It butts up to main body – how can I add a space to drop it down a little?
2) Text/font is small – How can I increase size and format?
3) If you have thousands of listings (DIR) and you just add this plugin – How do you set it so that it is globally turned ‘ON’? Otherwise, you have to do this manually? > Nightmare and would take hours.
Nice plugin though ????

It’s true to day that it is often that simple things make life so much easier for WP Admins, and this is no exception.
The hours of toil that Admins go through, seeking out that elusive plugin that does ‘exactly what it says’.
So often, many plugins are too bloated, requiring and ‘api key’ or a ‘sign-up’ as part of ‘acceptance of use’ > drive me crazy.
Well, for the Admin’s, here is a plugin that will far meet your expectations. No more ‘logging out’ and back in again to see how a users view would look. Simply ‘switch’ and instantly, your logged in as that user! How simple is that?!
If I were to add a feature, it would be to add a ‘switch’ button on those sites which list other sites, such as directory search listings.
Other than that…yep, its a winner!
Nice job John ????

Simple, easy…
What a great little plugin this is!
Only one small request…please add an ‘alignment’ feature as some/most themes will not allow alignment
Also, active states would be nice for rollovers etc
Other than that, great job! ????

Hi,
Had issues with unsecured content…. tried this plugin
Site completely secured.
First it checked for all/any the http:// and reported stats.
Then, I proceed to verify the change to convert all to https://
It took just 3 minutes…site secured!
Thank you to the author, good job!

Hi,
Been looking for this for a long time ????
1) I would like to remove the text links at bottom of form
2) If you do not want to add image, there is a large space? Need option to not add image logo.
3) The ‘Hint’ text in box does align correctly
4) How to make text labels bold
Great plugin!
2022-02-11 at 18:53:33Project
Thank you for this well needed plugin
As an idea, how about adding a link url for admin to create page which redirects the user to a page.
Thanks again

Just to let you know all is working fine with latest update
Also, with regard selecting Countries, could be more easier if you could do ‘mass’ select all
Add a feature where you can test against all blocked countries to make sure its working and that your no accidentally blocking a Country

Nice plugin as using plugins often slows a site down considerably. This made a big difference in page load times
All works fine but sadly, it has messes with the theme homepage (premium press) so had to deactivate it.
2022-02-11 at 19:38:32Project
Hi,
Looking for feedback if this works and is safe to use?
1) When I create/publish a post/listing, will it publish to Twitter?
2) Is there a scheduler so admin can select listing/s and have the plugin automatically post to twitter i.e. time, daily, weekly, monthly
If so, I will definitely buy this as it will save me tons of time!

Hi,
Cons :
If I get this right (I could be wrong), you have to use ‘another’ plugin from a different author just to use tickets?
Why not simply integrate the whole thing into just one system and NOT use another plugin?
Also, I did see sometime back that it had a desktop alert app – sadly, could not see this to try it out as that would be a game changer!
Pros :
Has to be the most easiest chat plugin around, setup in a matter of minutes – like this plugin!
If they need a tester, I’m your man ????
Nice job!
2022-03-23 at 19:45:22Project
Thinking of using the plugin?
If you just take a moment to read this, it may save you a ton of pain.
EDIT :
Dev Said “Custom Sidebars is not designed for creating/using with dozens of the sidebar in shared hosting.”
Foreford :
Firstly, this plugin is a great, easy peasy way to create a multitude of sidebars, add widgets to each and then, target your posts with ads and stuff.
HAPPY DAYS!!
Great right? Just what you have been looking for right?
But hang on there muchacho, there’s problems in them there hills!
Shared Server :
If you are a ‘shared server’ (you will know if your are if your paying small $bucks) and intend to use this to create a ton of sidebars > DON’T USE THIS!
What I did :
I setup just 20 sidebars, placed three widgets in 10 and 1 in each of the remaining 10.
Result :
When I tried to then load > ‘Appearance > Widgets section –
BOOM! – site ground to a halt, awful of devices and soon after…503 > Offline.
However, when I managed to get it to load, which was approximately a mind boggling 6 minutes, even then, very hard if not near impossible to configure anything?
Checked with Host :
So had a chat with our Host of some 5 years who checked and said that because of the many sidebars created and widgets loaded into each, the plugin was using a ton of processes all at the same time, depending of course on the traffic to the site.
Result :
It will drag your server down to a grind and your site will go offline with tons of 503 resource errors.
But how can that be?
So I disabled the plugin and voila, all back to normal.
Explanation :
You see, if your on a shared server, hundreds if not millions of other sites are using the exact same server in which your site resides.
Put simply, your Host, seeing your dragging that server down, will not only get extremely pi**ed off, they will ‘throttle’ your website. And in case you thought its a manual thing, no it isn’t, the server config detects the problem and will ‘automatically’ kick-in restricting/throttling your site back, thus saving your host a ton of grief from other site owners/users. Imagine if you were selling online – lost sales?!
Concept :
Now don’t get me wrong here, the dev did a nifty job in making this plugin which to be fair is not a million miles off from ‘woosidebars’; but surely they should have seen this problem coming?
Now to be fair, there a lot of people using this plugin but how many sidebars have they actually created? How many widgets have they added to each? How many on a ‘shared server’ as opposed to a ‘dedicated server’? All crucial information…
So to conclude :
If your on a ‘Shared Server’ and intend to use this to create a ton of sidebars – Don’t use it
If your on a ‘Shared Server’ and a ‘small site’ and just want to create say, 2-3 sidebars, this is perfect for you!!
If your on a dedicated (Own) Server great BUT, check with your host first because contrary to belief, not all dedicated severs are created equally i.e. don’t have same CPU resources. And even then, be very careful, fire of a message to the dev first to check it will meet your needs but will NOT drag your server down!
Development/Fix :
I very much doubt, that I can see, of a ‘workaround’ for sites needing more than say 10 sidebars as I do because I’m targeting posts with certain ads, but saying that; IF the dev is able to configure another route to solving this problem I would be the first to test it for them!
Like I said, great in principle which is why I have invested time to both test and post this review.
Note to Dev :
(if it helps, I tested over 6 hours against 28 installed plugins, all turned off and one by one, reactivated each one and watched via Hosing CPanel, all resources die within minutes when I tried to load ‘Appearance > Widgets which took 6 minutes to load or timed out.)
2022-03-23 at 19:48:01Project
Hi,
What a great little plugin! > Nice job!
Been looking for such a plugin for months!
Ideas/Suggestions :
1) If you could also include an option in the COMPATIBILITY to turn off it it is on mobile devices that would be even better!
2) Not sure if possible but allow, if using images, to re-size i.e. 120X600 to say 120X538 etc?
So good, I sent you a donation!
Add the (1) fix and I’ll send you another one!
Well done!

Hi,
Gave it a go as I was getting less than 50/100 from PageInsights complaining about minifying css and js etc, usual stuff.
Tried for hours testing either which way, no success
Then I saw the last time this plugin was updated was 2014
Nice idea though, clean GUI ????
2022-03-23 at 22:20:41Project
I like this plugin, nice output
But here’s the thing, can it target a specified post?
Let me explain; I want to limit user content if its a ‘free’ listing submission for a listing directory.
That would be perfect!

Hi Arnan,
I have reported this over many months.
Despite turning off ALL plugins, I cannot open/view ‘Groups’.
All was fine until a few updates ago but now, not working?
Any ideas please
Many Thanks
2022-03-23 at 23:37:52Project
Just had a play with this, just brilliant and something I have been on about for years!
If I were able to have had at least a chance to play with it as a ‘pro’ on a time limited option say 30 days i.e. an api key – this would have at least given me the time to ‘try before I buy’. And indeed, I suspect many would agree and no doubt would increase sales!
I feel sure it is not beyond the author to develop a time limited version as I for one would be amongst many to buy.
But regardless, from what I have seen, nice idea and another way to retire browser inspectors. Sadly, I couldn’t really use the ‘lite’ version as it told me that I couldn’t ‘save’ as I had (unknowingly) used ‘pro elements’ which confused me somewhat? But as I said, very nice..
It’s not bulky, pretty straight forward, no eval() or json code that I could find so all in all, yep…I liked it!
4 of 5 due only because of the pro issue limitations which pretty much made it unusable for me.
However, would love to be a tester should they wish to consider in exchange for a full review on site ????

Hi,
Okay, installed :
1) WP Super Cache – Clear all cache
2) WP Super Cache
3) Updated htaccess file
Nothing appears to be working in terms of speed improvement as site is dreadfully slow?
Also, when admin logs out, can’t get back in unless you ftp into server, disable the plugins.
So, what is it that I’m doing wrong here please?
Many Thanks
2022-03-24 at 00:26:21Project
Not too sure I like having an ‘all in one’ feature like this?
I discovered that when adding a new user; and after entering all the relevant information; on ‘add user’ I get ‘enter your password twice’?
This is, there are no ‘two’ password fields nor could I use the default one?
So I disabled JP and then all was fine again?
Reinstalled WP and JP with same result.
Is this because of a setting in JP that I cannot add a new user?
Many Thanks

Nice plugin, easy to use
Like many sadly, we would not use it as it relies on third party service.
We would be concerned where the data is being stored thus, out of our control.
2022-03-24 at 00:39:08Project
Like this, very nice, slick!
But…
If a theme already has a ‘built in’ subscribers admin area to save subscribers, can these be saved in the same area of the theme using this plugin?
I.e. Save to plugin or save to theme option
Hope that made sense ????

Okay,
Nice, Clean, Unbloated, Uncomplicated, Easy to use and understand.
No dodgy Arrays i.e. eval functions.
Suggestions :
1) When flagging PHP Versions, add info on latest supported version – suggest you point to a FAQ on your site (_blank) so it opens i a new window
2) Explain more info about how inactive plugins being able to be compromised by hackers – suggest you point to a FAQ on your site (_blank) so it opens i a new window
3) Add a config check i.e. current chmods settings; if vulnerable, suggest setting – suggest you point to a FAQ on your site (_blank) so it opens i a new window
4) Themes, if such has an update, what is current version and what is the latest version.
Thank you for this…keeping it simple makes like easier for non-techs
Good job! ????

Hi,
Nice idea and yes, certainly something which all WP users would need.
But on installing there is nothing really to see other than ‘buy’ to see at least basic functions?
Why is it that plugin devs seem to be missing a trick in terms of sales?
Allow for the pro version to run for 30 days?
Once the admin has had time to evaluate and see the benefits of a pro version; after 30 days it returns to default basic functionality mode.
Hence, they are hooked and will miss the various elements they enjoyed?
I’m really looking at nothing other than elements I cannot use or see?
What is the point?
As I said, great idea but such a shame that I can’t play/see the various functions in action.
Nice work though ????

Hi,
Nice idea as I was looking for a plugin that would have both options to either post manually and/or automatically for :
Pinterest, LindIn, Twitter, Facebook and have ability to add other SN’s accounts.
However and for me, I’m not a big fan having to subscribe to a service at an external site in order to use this plugin.
No problem making a payment for such a plugin I describe but not yet another plugin that makes you ‘subscribe’ to a third party.
Guess I’ll keep looking…
2022-03-24 at 00:44:09Project
Hi,

Just one question if I may…
Why cannot it be used in conjunction with the WP database?

Sadly, using this plugin locked us out – (18-06-15)
Tested other plugins by deactivating them, one by one, test by test and it was this plugin that was or seems the problem.
You can login and but moments later, it kicks you back out.
Disable it, all is fine.

Hi,
Had to stop using this plugin, it was killing my server resources when posting to networks.
Like many who promote affiliate links, I normally post to social networks, sending traffic direct.
However, using this plugin, links posted to these networks were first redirected back to my site and then redirect again to the affiliate link which created 503 server resource timeout issues.
If your on a dedicated server no issues, but for me sadly, not on a shared server.

Anyone using WordPress will know all too well of the many, it seems, the constant battle with bugs, kiddie hackers and much more.
And managing a site, particularly if your the site owner, on this cms platform can be a fulltime job! Which is why leaving such a task to a dedicated web developer pays dividends.
A wordpress website sure is a pain in the a** to manage!
So here is a supa-mega plugin that battles on your behalf in keeping the bugs and hackers at bay.
Does it work?
Yes it does… you can decide which scans you wish to perform and one click, all done within a couple of minutes!
The first thing anyone using this must first to do (as this will save you a ton of time) is READ THE DOCS!
Not much there to bend your brain; but enough to explain how it works, what you need to know etc and boom!!…Your on your way to a trouble free site in getting rid of malware in plugins, themes and wpcore.
Is it worth a donation for this excellent FREE plugin?
Simple question is “How much time and worry did it save you in getting your site healthy again?”
I use this across 5 sites ALL of which became (I don’t know how) infected by a theme bug ‘functions.php’…so you can be sure that for each, a donation will be making its way over to the developer because the last thing I need right now is for this plugin to be abandoned!
Very well done to the developer and thank you!
2022-03-24 at 02:06:04Project
Always wary of ‘free’ plugins as the support in the main, is lacking.
Had a problem implementing this plugin with regard CSS issues.
Contacted the author, Anoop, who within 30 minutes, visited my site, checked the code, saw a conflict with other files and fixed it!
All done…thank you Anoop ????
That’s support!!

It works but for some reason, it does no inherit .css or other related files to emulate the main theme?
So you do need (unless I’m missing something in terms of setting it up) to ‘recreate’ the associate files from the main theme

We used the free version for a while and whilst it was “buggy”, it did the job.
So we then decided to buy the premium version so last September 2019.
After installation and despite our best efforts – (remember, we had been using the free version for a year so we knew how to set it up) – it wouldn’t work so we posted a ticket to Ludwig the developer, in fact, we posted several tickets.
At the time of writing this – 04 May 2020 – Ludwig has never responded.
In fact, he spends more attention supporting the free users so he can convert them to paying customers
And yes, we lost our money despite asking for a refund!
BUYER BEWARE – YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!
