Frustrating
-
This plugin changed a lot for me. There wasn’t a plugin for year, make, model search that was available unless you put everything in manually. I don’t have the time for that. This plugin does it all for you, including attributes, images, titles, slugs, price, descriptions, etc. Some manufacturers give more information than others, so it is dependent on what the manufacturer has added. Most are pretty good and gives you a good base to build a decent product page. It also makes its own categories, runs your search, and gives you many filters for your customers. However, other than adding a child theme and playing with the CSS there is no way to customize anything. Had multiple issues that eventually made me abandon the WordPress version of this plug-in altogether. Fitment issues with just about every screen size, it looks plain and boring, can’t change category names, which are way too long and overflow into the next column. Speed was also a big issue. Sometimes the developer will answer other times they will not, making it near impossible to fix issues in any sort of a timely manner. SEMA is a great organization with a lot of dedicated people, but this plug-in needs a lot of work. I shouldn’t need to hire a developer to use a plug-in. The front-end is a must use if you use their data. I tried for years to make this work for me because I really wanted it to work but just could never get it there and went to another platform.
