• Love it. Very happy with the slider and support. You don’t have to spend hours setting it up or figuring out what to do. Simplicity means less options, but less options is not a bad thing. I’ll probably upgrade meta slider for more options when I need them rather than find another. I’ve tried the others. Deleted each within 15 minutes. Lite versions are pointless with them, and they require way too much time to figure out. If I can’t get something basic but at least decent out of a lite version, I most surely won’t buy a full version. Meta slider is worth buying.

  • Hi Midian42,

    I agree, and actually I think it’s harder to make something simpler & easier to use/understand with each release than it is to make something more complex. Adding extra functionality & complexity into a plugin is a slippery slope; eventually you might wind up with a plugin that’s so complex only the developer understands it.

    The “Lite” naming convention we use isn’t really indicative of the complexity behind the scenes – in fact if you have both Meta Slider Lite and Pro installed, you’ll find, I guess, about 90% of the code is in “Lite”.

    The next update hopefully makes things a little simpler again, hiding the more advanced options until they’re needed, amongst a tonne of other little things here and there that maybe nobody will consciously notice (that’s the idea, anway!)

    I don’t normally comment on reviews, but the ‘complexity vs simplicity’ thing has been on my mind recently so thought I’d put my thoughts down!

    Thanks for the review 🙂
