Great Plugin (but…)

    It’s a great plugin, but terrible for small sites that don’t use it as much as professional sites do since, at times, it has ad banners in the admin section that break features. For example, at the moment, their Black Friday sale banner shows on all post pages and blocks any confirmation completely for when you have submitted or updated a post. So you don’t know for sure if your submission went through or not. The message isn’t hidden behind the banner, it is simply gone completely. Uninstall this plugin, and you get it back. There is no way to close or disable the banner unless you pay them large amounts of cash yearly, which just isn’t an option for smaller personal sites. It was enough that someone from WordPress asked me to send them a screenshot and information showing what it was doing since it was affecting core functions of WordPress itself. For now, I have chosen not to bother with the plugin unless that kind of stuff gets fixed.

    Hi there,

    Thank you very much for taking the time to provide such a detailed and honest review, especially for highlighting the disruptive issue with the Black Friday sale banner. We sincerely apologize for the frustration and inconvenience this caused, particularly by blocking core WordPress confirmations for post updates. That is absolutely not the experience we want our users, large or small, to have.

    We also appreciate you helping us to pinpoint and resolve this. As you noted, the specific Black Friday banner causing the issue has now been removed as the sale period has ended, which should restore the functionality you were missing.

    More importantly, your feedback regarding the non-dismissible nature of the banner has been taken very seriously by our development team. They have made it a top priority to ensure that any future notifications or promotional banners used in the WordPress admin area will be fully dismissable and will not interfere with core WordPress functions, especially when accessed outside of our main plugin dashboard.

    We understand why you’ve chosen to uninstall the plugin for now, but we hope you will consider giving our plugin another try.

    Thank you again for your patience and for helping us make our plugin better for everyone.
