    Hi Guys,

    First time ive used this plugin, fairly impressed with it so far, lots of options to configure which is nice, not looked into what the professional one does any different though. Really i could do with it using my custom post type taxonomies but cant have it all i guess.

    Anyway, looks great on desktop, laptop etc. But not looking to good on mobile devices.

    The excerpt and title text is below the thumbnail image, i want it to wrap around the thumb image.

    Anyone got any ideas how to fix this?

    Cheers for your time

    The “wrap aroound the thumbnail” option will be available in future versions of the plugin.

    Hi Luca,

    I appreciate you responding to my question. I understand you are a busy man (like the rest of us), but is there any chance you could give me a rough estimate on when we would be seeing the text wrapped around the thumbnail option for mobile devices?

    Coming in future versions of the plugin is a little concerning for me, it could be six months or maybe a year? Next week, next month? Any clue’s?

    I really like your plugin, very impressed with all the options to configure, just a little disappointing on the mobile phone, i dont think it looks very good with the post title and excerpt text below the thumbnail image.

    Makes the sidebar on mobile much longer than it needs to be and leaves voids of white space.

    I understand there may be issues wrapping the text but its something that cant be overlooked nowadays. You Have all of these great options for configuring the type of information displayed in the sidebar with recent posts etc but it seems little work has gone into styling it for mobiles.

    I hope we see the Text wrapping around the thumbnail image soon as id like to continue to use the plugin. If its not being released anytime soon please let me know as im not sure i can continue using without.

    Thanks Again for your time and your fantastic product. I hope we see these changes soon.

    Just been looking at what the professional version gets you. If you had the text wrapped around the Thumbnail i would most probably purchase.

    I have a tourist information website using multiple custom post types, pages and normal posts. I have around 200 pages at the moment and it will continue to grow.

    Your plugin will be invaluable to me, especially the pro version with added filters, but i can use it without the text wrap. If i have the work done by someone else then i wont be able to update your plugin anymore.

    Is wrapping the text around the thumb image something you are working on at the moment? or have you not given it much thought?

    Cant believe im the first and only person to mention the issue im talking about?

    Thanks again for your time
