Nice plugin and great support

cohemelaqk October 26, 2023

The free plugin covers all my needs, some things were not possible and I had to solve them with jQuery to achieve it. The technical support responds quickly and takes your feedback into account to make the necessary improvements where possible. I appreciate the help. Thank you!

A Good Clean Attractive Layout

jcomanda September 10, 2022 1 reply

This plugin displays a grid of post excerpts that allows end-users to filter on categories. Behind the scenes, it uses sophisticated coding. In terms of putting it on your website, it works with shortcodes that are simple to set and give you the ability to fine-tune the way filtering and pagination work. You can’t change the layout without CSS, but the designer has chosen well. The plugin provides a 3-column desktop layout that is very clean and elegant, as well as responsive. The developer has a particularly good sense for how to design the layout, compared to other plugins I have worked with. By forcing images into the same size format and placing them at the top of each post above the title, the posts all line up well. In addition, I have found the developer to be responsive as well.

Can’t use custom template for posts

tuomio June 3, 2022 1 reply

Taxonomy filters are implemented as li elements, and everything is missing aria-labels. Could be better if you could overwrite templates with your own.

Easy & Simple Plugin
