 * Hello,
 * I was just now finally able to get in, although it took close to 2 minutes to
   load the page, which is odd because my internet is pretty quick, I can usually
   pull up even pretty demanding sites like YouTube in less then a second.
 * Just thought it was worth mentioning.
 * Also: Are both the Post Pay Counter free and pro versions updated frequently?
   My main concern would be compatibility with WordPress, and since it updates often,
   I thought that was worth asking as well.
 * Thanks!

 * I do not use any other themes on my site, other than the other linked above, 
   so whether the plugin works on other themes is not my concern, nor is it relevent
   to the issue at hand. I have not claimed that the plugin is broken on all themes,
   it probably works fine on others, I simply stated that it does not work on the
   one I use, which is linked directly in my last comment.

 * I posted there because it was a problem that made the plugin unuable for me, 
   and as such, deserves to be mentioned when writing any form of review for this
   plugin. I would be happy to provide you whatever information you require if you
   wish to address the problem directly, if so desired. If not that’s understandable,
   but I stand by my original review. I cannot give a plugin 5 stars if it is unable
   to run properly on my WordPress site. I don’t say this to insult, but just as
   a statement of fact.

   [[Customer Support Ticket System & Helpdesk] [Updated Review] Great plugin, but has some problems](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fantastic-plugin-great-features-and-layout/)

 * I apologize if anything here was taken out of context, but I had come here not
   to bash your plugin, but to give it a fair grading based on my experience of 
   it to date. I can’t give it a 5 star rating when there is something that detracts
   from the experience like what I’ve described.
 * I would just only like to see the plugin optimized a bit more so it runs at a
   slighter faster rate than before. My site speeds are pretty good, and I’ve done
   a lot to improve the site’s cache features and so on, to ensure better performance,
   and I can see when something is slowing up my site, like WP Ticket is.
 * The plugin is beautiful, no doubting there, but is also a tad too beefy for my
   liking.
 * As for defining bloated, let me re-phrase, as you are right, that can be taken
   a number of ways. I meant in the sense that, of all plugins, it detracts from
   overall site speed the most, by a large margin.
 * I will look into discussing this more with your staff on the support site shortly,
   but for the moment just want to clarify my position: WP Ticket is good, but could
   be made better. That’s all I meant to say.
 * For clarification, I simply took offense at your last statement: “If you do not
   need pro grade functionality, it is ok to look for another solution offering 
   less functionality hence less footprint.” As this feels very much like a PR move
   to shut down criticism by telling consumers to go away and find another competitor’s
   product, since they themselves have no interest in addressing the criticism. 
   If this was just a misinterpretation of meanings, I also apologize.

 * While you are correct in the sense that all plugins add to longer page loading
   times, you deflect the specifics of my criticisms. I say your plugin is bloated
   not out of some bizarre hatred, but by looking at my own WordPress-based statistics,
   which very clearly shows the problem.
 * Technically any more advanced hosting plans could compensate for the bloat produced
   by this plugin, but any experienced plugin author should not have to rely on 
   this as an excuse, in order to shield their plugin from criticism by its userbase.
 * I have seen many other plugins of varying types, with a much wider scope of features
   and a lot less impact on site speed.
 * I raised these issues as concerns, simply wanting to see them addressed, but 
   if this is the type of immature defensiveness raised because of a simple constructive
   criticism, I would advise taking time away from producing plugins so you can 
   take some time to better practice your customer service skills. I do not like
   your tone, and hope that this is not representative of your company.

 * Hello, and certainly! No one wants to see this resolved more than me. 🙂 I am
   running off of Engine, which is a custom-build premium WP theme, and it appears
   that, as of the most recent WordPress update, when this plugin is active now,
   all items on the section menu on my site disappear.
 * I will link to the theme’s store page, and if you need any other info, I’ll be
   glad to share! [](http://themeforest.net/item/engine-drag-and-drop-news-magazine-w-minisites/9684894)

 * Thank you very much for the suggestion.
 * Thanks to your advice, I was able to find the offending file,
    and have now deleted
   it from my servers without any lasting effects.
 * You have made this overall negative experience with this plugin
    a little bit
   more pleasant!

 * I’m sorry to be rude, but where is this plugin update that was supposed to fix
   this?
    I know it takes awhile to work on plugin updates, but this feels like 
   way too long a time to wait.

 * Yeah, that’s happening to me too,
    which is especially odd, as I am using WordPress
   3.5.2, which is still anything but outdated.
 * What can be done to fix this?

 * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buddypress-compatible-6/#post-4051194)
 * Thanks for replying so quickly.
 * I love Flyzoo’s sleek, responsive interface,
    and the idea of incorporating an
   Achievement system of sorts, to promote chat use among the website’s users, as
   well as inclusion of analytics for administrators. All in all, from looks alone,
   a stunning plugin, which certainly looks many steps ahead of any current competition.
 * That said, I have a few feature suggestions for possible inclusion:
 * *Support for existing WordPress achievement plugins,
    such as BadgeOS, and/or
   Achievements for WordPress, to make it easier for those of us with existing achievement
   systems.
 * *If Flyzoo doesn’t have this already, (my apologies if it does,)
    increased compatibility
   with mobile platforms would be awesome!
 * That’s all, really.
 * Good luck on what looks to be a very promising plugin!
    I will be eagerly anticipating
   future updates of Flyzoo!

 * Thanks for getting back to me, and sorry for my delayed reply.
    Where should 
   I input the code you suggested, specifically? My website’s theme is not natively
   compatible with BuddyPress, but I do have the latest version of BuddyPress.
 * A specific outline of what to do would be very helpful, thanks.
 * I’m still somewhat new to WordPress,
    and still only a novice at programming,
   so apologies for my lack of comprehension.
