Good but with a major flaw

Cognisant_2000 — Wed, 20 Nov 2024 08:12:20 +0000

It is a very good plug-in and the support is very good too, but one large flaw which needs to be addressed.

We installed the free version to test for a client who wanted a FAQ in 2 languages. After setting up both languages, the client asked for functionality which is only available in Paid version.

So we purchased the paid version, thinking like most plug-ins it will upgrade the existing plug-in, and simply free up the options. How wrong we were.

We had to set up all the FAQs again, in both languages, because the paid (pro) version installs another plug-in which has no way of importing the existing FAQs! So in fact you end up with 2 plug-ins, the free version and pro version, which have to be set up separately.

This is a major issue, as their support team confirmed, there was no way of importing the existing content!

So be careful and do not set things up as a “Try before you buy” because you will be forced to set up everything again.

Buggy, major security concerns

We evaluated the free version of the plugin, and based on the price, decided to go for the full version. Paid the $20 fee… no immediate way to unlock pro features. Had to wait for the tech support team to email overnight (they’re in India, I’m in US) with a link to download a ZIP file – delete the free version, manually install the pro version. Ok, seems a little sketchy to me, but I’ll give it a try.

Pro version installed, but can’t get some features to work, like installing and working with the available pro templates. So I reach out to support to find out what it’s doing and how to fix. Their reply? They want me to give them access to my WordPress admin so they can fix it. I’m sorry, what? No. I don’t know you or your company. I’m not giving you free rein in my admin to do whatever you want. If you can’t make your plugin work, and you can’t tell me what I should do to fix it, then your plugin has major issues. The fact that you even ask for that access is seriously concerning.

At this point, I’ve found an alternative plugin and have deleted this one. Just not worth it, even for $20.

Media Manager – Makes WP unusable for most clients

Chris Eckersley — Fri, 12 Feb 2016 03:06:55 +0000

Core WordPress needs a folder structure media manager that’s easy to use with customizable directories. I have literally tried every 3rd party solution, free and paid, but nothing comes close to a viable solution the is easy enough for clients to use.

Most people, my clients, and my content providers are visual learners and require a folder structure to manage their data and their thoughts. Don’t get me wrong, I think the tagging functionality with metadata is by far more superior than a simple folder structure. Tagging is great for webmasters and developers but for editors and content providers it’s a nightmare! They just don’t think and organize their thoughts in such a way.

I completely understand why the core team went with tagging rather than a folder structure. If I had to choose how I would manage my media I would choose a tagging solution… But I need my editors and content providers to manage the media not me!

The problem is the users. They’re just not ready for tagging. All of their experience with media management is with folder structures on a PC. They can visualize a folder in their filing cabinet with files in side of it. They’re visual and sensory learners and need to manage their content in such a way.

This needs to be core.

PS. Even this entry forum assumes people don’t understand tagging enough. Below this entry box there is a “Tags” box which has to break down and explain how to use a tags “Enter a few words (called tags) separated by commas to help someone find your topic:”

Come on guys… You know this is an issue and we know you can develop awesome software! Hence most of WordPress! Someone needs to just make the decision to get a directory file structure in core.

Extra steps to Set feature image, Media Manager UI Flaws

gnarlyinc — Sat, 22 Dec 2012 19:47:38 +0000

Hey wordpress, media manager has some great new features, but one area where it absolutely sucks! Adding a featured image after creating a gallery. In 3.4 and before I could set the feature image, than insert the gallery. Now I insert the gallery and have to reopen the media manager to set the feature image. This extra step often leads to me forgetting to set the feature image.

Also I don`t want to see my entire media library on every post. Perhaps ad a feature to toggle ”view all media” rather than having this the default or only option.

WP 3.2 destroys swaths of themes and plugins

Thought Police — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 07:55:06 +0000

I have downgraded back to 3.1.4. I doubt I’ll be updating again to 3.2 for a month or two while premium develops catch up and I update several custom solutions. (I’m serious about a month or two, at minimum. Some premium shops are one-man or small team outfits with several dozen plugins and themes that need to be updated to match 3.2. Those changes aren’t coming overnight.)

I *do* appreciate the hard work put into WordPress. I don’t appreciate being swamped by dozens of clients because a .X release breaks dozens of plugins (that I’ve encountered *so far*) and seemingly most JavaScript heavy themes.

A Possible WordPress bug/flaw

Katrina — Tue, 29 Nov 2005 08:42:05 +0000

I go to a site, Jemjabella.co.uk, and I read in her recent post that WordPress may have a vulnerability. Can anyone tell me if this is true? Before you start judging, would you want to first read the article? It’s below:

... I've been to several weblogs today based on WordPress which have been exploited because of dodgy set permissions. Unfortunately at the time I've had several websites open generally and can't pinpoint who is infected.. anyway, people who've been "attacked" are those with certain files with permissions set to 666. A piece of JavaScript is inserted which when loaded, tries to save the file "upload.wmv" / "update.wmv" / "update2.wmv" to your computer. This is a trojan, and must be told in no uncertain terms to piss right off. Anyway, if you're using WordPress or ANY script that involves permissions set to 666, you need to get them changed to 644 now. Erm, I think it's 644 anyway...
