This plugin makes it much easier to add and maintain bespoke snippets of code. It won't make you an instant expert so don't expect miracles. Unfortunately, you still first need to learn how Wordpress uses PHP code and how it works under the hood.

The support team went above and beyond to assist me in resolving an issue. Highly Recommend this product and the additional support they provide!

I wanted to add some minor visual enhancements to my website, since I write in long paragraphs that result in huge grey walls of text. There are many cool enhancements to help break them up visually, the best IMO being bullet points (allowing you to replace the black circle with an icon), pull quotes and drop caps. So far, very happy with this and have no issues to speak of.

I was having difficulties in creating private calendars for each user of the site, and finally I came across SU. The code below solved my problem, so I can only thank the developers for the free version enabled my to continue developing the other features of the site. <?php $uname = do_shortcode('[su_user field="user_nicename" user_id]'); $fname = do_shortcode('[su_user field="first_name" user_id]'); $lname = do_shortcode('[su_user field="last_name" user_id]'); $nname = $fname." ".$lname; echo "Calendar for ".$nname." (".$uname.")"; echo do_shortcode('[events_calendar full=1 category='.$uname.']'); ?>
