I’m the developer and we respond to emails and the forum when we have time. Right now we are doing this for free (including the new version 3) so you could understand it isn’t top priority for us to provide free support. When version 3 is ready for beta testers, we are planning on releasing a Pro version which will have priority support for paying customers and we’ll offer paid support for users of the free version as well.
We didn’t disappear, we’ve just been busy working on many different projects and the plugin timeline got delayed. I’m nearly done with the complete plugin rewrite and hope to have it out to beta testers within a couple of weeks.
So, what is going on with the new version of this plugin please? This was supposed to be updated a year ago already and, 6 months ago you had stated that the complete rewrite of the core code was to be completed and sent out to beta testers within a couple of weeks…..that was half a year ago!
Can the developer please stop in and let all of us know what is going on with this plugin seeing how this plugin has not seen an update since 8/23/2013????
Really guys, it would be nice if you didn’t leave us in the dark on this!

Exactly. I think a lot of people are waiting for v3, and a lot of those people are also willing to pay for some neat new features.
I eventually decided to use this for my customer reviews – https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-client-reviews-by-tidio-elements/ – and like it a lot!
Ping. It might be time to move on, any other suggestions on plugins to go with?
It’s still being worked on. Life happened.
The new version is 95% completed and just needs some final touches to fix some bugs before it goes out to testers. Sorry this is taking so long. It is a side project for me until the pro version comes out. Once v3 is final, I can then convince my CFO (wife) that making the pro version and supporting free and pro would be worth the time commitment.
P.S. – If anybody has a time machine or cloning device, please let me know. This would help out a lot 🙂
Hello Bompus, I’m a big fan of Version 2.4.8. Will it be the same programer working on Version 3? I’m thinking it would be worth the wait, if it is.
It’s been the same developer this entire time (me) and will continue to be. It actually horrifies me to look at the 2.x codebase since the 3.x is so much more refined and easier to work with. 3.x also uses custom post types which opens up the possibility to integrate with other plugins much easier. It will be worth the wait 🙂
thank you for the update bompus! Yes, life does have a tendency of getting in the way of many things. I like your plugin just fine and it has never given me any problems in 2 years so..all good on that front and I very much do want to be a paid version 3 user when that is released, as I do believe in buying quality code and support.

I need the RSS feed of reviews feature (to forward reviews to FB + Twitter) and am willing to pay for the pro version.
Thanks for a great plugin.
I can’t wait from v3 pro version. I will purchase without hesitation.
I too like your old version but I do need an upgrade. I’d much rather stick than twist, so you can tell the missus that when the upgrade comes I will happily “GO PRO” 🙂
