No setup. You just install it and it does what it’s supposed to.

Hello there. Thanks a lot for your great plug-in. I used to work with commercial themes like BuddyBoss, ShopIsle (PRO), Tonder (PRO) and others. These themes did NOT let your plug-in work at all. So I decided to change to another theme (BuddyBoss) and - tadaaaaah - it is working without troubles. What I could not find, is a customization. Is there one/an admin section - to at least decide, where the notification should appear (left/right/top/buttom)? Thanks again! Truly Tom
