Description

The parallax effect is a modern web design technique where the background element scrolls slower than the foreground content. The parallax effect can be used on landing pages, long-form content, sales pages, or the homepage of a business website. It is a great way to highlight different sections on a lengthy page.
You can easily create a parallax section with this plugin.

Was working Perfectly fine, but 2.0 update just greets you with a paywall, Breaks old parallax sections, and just works worse in genereal. Just revert it back.

Thanks for the nice plugin. It was easy to set up and worked as advertised. I'll keep it in my library of favorites.
