installs something on your pc

Hi @thepeppi,

Thanks for writing, and I’m sorry the plugin hasn’t met your needs. Rotators can be edited from any computer, so I think that might be a point of confusion – sorry about any confusion there. Regarding having to install an external editor application, I’ve shared in other posts our philosophy on that:

The external editor application allows for more efficient and powerful editing features; for example, images can be resized and optimized before being uploaded to the web. This saves uploading time and allows for quicker development. Obviously, not every plugin is perfect for every use case. EasyRotator for WordPress is well maintained and offers extensive functionality. Many other plugins are more limited and/or don’t receive regular maintenance. While the up-front setup usually takes a minute or two (as mentioned clearly in the plugin description), we believe that the long-term benefits outweigh the initial investment.

This requirement is mentioned in the plugin requirements; if you disagree with having to install an external editor we certainly respect your opinion, but we do humbly request that you not bash the plugin when reading the requirements could have allowed you to effectively prejudge the plugin’s merits for your situation.

As you may have noticed, many other users find the plugin experience to be notably superior to the alternatives, so I’m sorry you didn’t proceed to the point of actually using the plugin.

Please let me know if there’s any other way we may provide clarification or assistance. Thanks!

Sincerely,
Drew O’Neill
