I really like this plugin. The only issue is that I tried to change the title text
where the plugin says I should be able to but it didn’t work. So I had to modify
the text via the php file, which isn’t ideal. I would also add that this plugin,
while it doesn’t break my AMP pages or make the code invalid, it doesn’t look pretty
on AMP either.

I installed this plugin and it looks great. It’s exactly what I need in a feedback
plug-in. However, when I test the thumbs down feature to send feedback, I keep getting
the message, “There was a problem. Please try again”. I went to the support forum
and it seems this error is common. Each article used to address the situation was
cut off. So, there is no way to diagnose the error. Great idea but poor support.

People are hesitant about leaving comments so I thought I would give this a try.
No conflicts. Would like ability to choose font and font size but for a start this
is a nice plugin.

The plugin does what it promises. It is simple and easy to use. I wish it had custom
post types support too so that users can get feedback on not just articles but other
content types as well.
