 * I have a site that uses ACF Pro. Using this plugin causes both this plugin and
   ACF to stop functioning correctly. The issue is that both plugins are loading
   Select2. Actually, all of the scripts on the admin page stop functioning because
   of this.
 * I also have an issue with Select2 being loaded exclusively from the CDN. I work
   in a remote area where I cannot always depend on internet access and work on 
   a local dev server. Without a backup plan in case the script does not load the
   admin page becomes useless and the only way that I can work on the site is by
   disabling this plugin.

 * Bah! Thanks for the report. I’m looking at including select2 locally with the
   plugin, as well as seeing if I can run it in some sort of no-conflict mode, possibly
   also only loading it on the pages dependent on it as well. I’ll let you know 
   how it goes.

 * [@hube2](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hube2/) – alright, please try out
   3.1.7 , made just for you 😉 It’s a pretty bruteforce renaming to make our select2
   be named wpcr3_select2 throughout ( js and css ), and shouldn’t conflict in any
   way with any other select2 loaded on the page. If you see any issues on your 
   end, please let me know.

 * I didn’t expect that, just really wanted you to be aware of the problem.
 * I think that the compatibility issue with other problems could probably be handled
   by using a standard “handle” for the scripts of “select2” instead “wp-customer-
   reviews-select2”. The compatibility problem is due to trying to load multiple
   copies of the same script.
 * As far as the local copy, I wasn’t expecting that right away. I just wanted you
   to consider a local fallback of scripts if the CDN is unavailable for some reason.
 * I’m currently looking at several potential plugins for doing reviews. Honestly,
   I find yours the most promising but I really need the features listed for the“
   Pro” versions that you haven’t released yet.

 * The problem with using a standard handle is different major versions of select2.
   The easy way around that is.. what I did. Give it a try and let me know how it
   goes.
 * One day, I’ll get around to the pro features 😁
