• I’d give it 3.5 if I could, but rounding up because it is free after all…

    The good:
    ? It works (not to be taken for granted, some don’t)
    ? Good post selection controls
    ? I managed to make it match the look of my theme nicely with custom CSS

    The bad:
    ? Controls to hide meta did not work on my site, had to hide with CSS display:none
    ? You can’t change the sort order of posts. They display in order of post date. This is a shortcoming in my particular case because I use the carousel to list upcoming events and I’d prefer to sort by event date. Ideally could do this by custom field data, but I can’t even drag and drop to sort.
    ? You can’t specify to display all posts in a custom post type by category. The carousel displays this message: “Carousel contents not found!” I am guessing that the plugin only looks in standard wp post types for the specified category.
    ? You can display user specified posts in a custom post type, but then you have to manually curate the list.

    I did relate the issues I found with the author but they were not too interested. I can’t complain, but can’t give 5 stars either.
