Reviews

Absolutely disaster

January 19, 2020
I just lost 4 days of work so I registered ONLY for giving my thoughts about this piece of crap. Installed it. Activated it. Didn't like it, so deactivated. BIG MISTAKE: "There has been a critical error on your website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions." Dude, are you for real? I mean, what would it take to fix the damn thing or, if you're not able, to ask someone to do it for you? It's obvious that you're not a developer, so make us all a favor and get lost from the realm. LATER EDIT (because I could not refrain myself) Dude, pay attention to the 5 stars reviews you got: they were made by the same damn person, that's SO obvious by reading the comments. As I said above: are you for real?? Oh, and thank you for the hard work that I lost because of you. (and don't even dare to say something about backups!) UPDATE (for the naives who installed this piece of nothing and panicked) Apparently, the error is caused by a class geting corrupted when try to deactivate the tables management plugin. - enter Recovery Mode from the e-mail link you got - go to FTP and delete the tables whatever plugin from this guy - from WP Plugin interface delete the other two plugins (trust me) - exit Recovery Mode, you'll be fine.

Broke my WordPress

November 18, 2019
This crappy plugin installed behind the scenes 3 plugin, one of which (WP Table Manager Light) broke my blog and couldn't even uninstall from Wordpress, had to FTP and delete the folder. Stay away from this effing crappy dodgy plugin. shame on you!

terrible

April 25, 2018
This install other two plugins that you can deactivate and another one that you can't uninstall even is you uninstall these three plugins. Tried deleting the folder but it caused a fatal error in my site. It was just a localhost site, and wasn't a real problem, but I'll just keep away from this. I checked another review and it seems the developer just doesn't want to tell users that the plugins install other things.

Yes… Editing, it truely works very well.

February 2, 2018
I think it is better than any other type of editing. I got multiple benefits on this plugin. It can edit my photos, summarize my elaborate article and make it's own pages. It has it's own front size so that it can edit the Letter as the client want. I think it becomes popular by its abundant activities. I am very helpful by its work, wish its continuity. Thank You very much.
