• It’s free … But you pay with non agreed ads in your website footer.
    Quite disappointing and unprofessional to include advertising without any consent.
    Problems with the lazyloading.
    Poor quota.
    Stay away from this adware.

    Hello @blobcl,

    It is unfortunate that you had issues with the lazy loader, but we will be glad to take a look and resolve them. It is possible that this is due to a conflict with another lazy loading solution. If you are running another lazy loading plugin or if your theme provides a lazy loading option, please make sure to disable these and try again. Also feel free to raise a case with our support team, so we can take a closer look.

    As for the badge below the footer – apologies for not communicating this better ??

    We have never been hiding the fact that the free plan comes with a badge. The description in our pricing page states “Places a NitroPack badge in the footer of the website”. Also upon signing up on our website you are required to choose between free and a paid plan where the free option has an image preview of how the badge looks.

    We are working on a new presentation of our pricing plans which will make the badge requirement even more visible ??

    @blobcl I just think that some people hate to read. This was copied from their Free plan descriptions “Good for testing or one very small website with rarely updated pages. Places a NitroPack badge in the footer of the website“. It looks like the badge it’s only in the free plan. Fair price for using services for free if you ask me. As for the quota – I’m on the free plan, and it’s enough for my small blog. After all the FREE plan’s quota is supposed to be low like every free plan. As stated by them it’s good for testing or VERY SMALL website.

    P.S. – by thinking of it, bitching and placing one star review just because you hate to read it’s a **** move …

    SasnycoN,

    What a stupid little thing you are. Me, like other users, carefully read the documentation and more, but the developer for that time (more than three months ago) had not included such information. He himself acknowledges it responsibly and very humbly in this and previous posts.

    I recommend you be responsible in the opinion, and not an ignorant “macho” man since if you are happy with the product, it is thanks to the good work of the developer and especially the opinions of users.

    @blobcl I’m sorry if I have offended you in anyway! I do not plan to argue in a review section of some plugin.

    It is not actually about the badge but a violation of the terms. When the developer created the plugin, he intentionally “hide” the banner so that the WordPress developer team, after manual moderation, would not see that “trick.” Then the developer decided that let’s break the rules “a bit” and add the promotional link without consent to the free plans. But doing that is against the Plugin Guidelines as stated on https://developer.www.ads-software.com/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/#10-plugins-may-not-embed-external-links-or-credits-on-the-public-site-without-explicitly-asking-the-user’s-permission (see section 10):
    “Plugins may not embed external links or credits on the public site without explicitly asking the user’s permission.”

    So we may suspect that the plugin author is fooling the users and violates the WordPress Plugin Guidelines? What do you say, @nitropack?
