Shady business practices mar a plugin with potential

    I thought this was a great plugin, until I tried to figure out how to turn off PayPal forwarding. I spent a day wrestling with it. I then found out – it is not at all obvious in the plugin, and I’m an experienced developer – that this “feature” of PayPal redirection can only be disabled on the pro version.

    Codepeople seem to think that paying to *remove* features is a way to make people buy their products. Instead, it’s dishonest, especially since they’re not at all upfront about it. Codepeople will never get any of my money, and I’ll be sure to warn others off their products too.

    Following your suggestions I’ve just made an update for adding a note in the administration area to explain clearly which features aren’t available there and added an additional explicit note to the plugin description to make clear that the feature for working without PayPal isn’t available in the version listed in this directory.

    I know that this update doesn’t answer all your requests but hope it helps to avoid confusion about the features present on each version.

    Thank you for your comments, I really appreciate your feedback.
