User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate this WordPress plugin for its simplicity, versatility, and quality, particularly noting its effective configurations, parameterizations, and visual customizations. The plugin’s code quality stands out, offering better W3C validation compared to other well-known plugins. However, users have noted significant drawbacks: it is currently incompatible with PHP 8.1, which causes site crashes, it lacks translation capabilities with tools like Loco Translate, and users miss certain features like customizable delimiters in flat style. Despite these issues, it generally fulfills its promises, although it may become obsolete without further development.

Hi, this has been a great plugin for many years, but when I recently upgraded my site’s PHP version from 7.4 to 8.1, the site stopped working. I have had to deactivate the plugin. Perhaps it will work again in the future if development restarts.

Good. Can be parameterized and colored etc. There is only one problem: it is not possible to translate e.g. With loco translate. This topic was modified 1 year, 11 months ago by kadarlaszlo.

Thanks a lot for this great plugin. Really a pitty, that it looks like it will retire. The only thing I’m missing is to set my own delimiter in flat style.
