Therefore, you cannot perform these functions unless you disable the plugin. It’s unfortunate because this plugin does exactly what I need and I cannot find another plugin for this function. However I may still continue to use it and just disable it when I need to perform those functions in the admin. This is why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1. I guess this is to be expected when a plugin hasn’t been updated for 2 years. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6c51bed3e35542cf8cfc6848ae57be1bc411750ace353535430a9f94982bbcf3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great Plugin and Developer](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-and-developer-7/)󠁿 [](https://profiles.wordpress.org/blueyonder/) September 3, 2016 The plugin works great, but I had a few more things that I was hoping that could be done with it so I sent an email over to the developer.
