Why? Why would you take something that worked so well and turn it into something so bad? Used to be a simple one page config now its all full of bloat, upsells and some weird ass block builder UI that isn’t even Gutenberg. SMH

I used to use this plugin exclusively as a maintenance page/temporarily taking a website offline. Now, the customization options are all but gone. I need to customize the text on the maintenance page on each site that I manage, now I have to replace this plugin on over 20 websites. Like other reviewers have said, this plugin USED to be awesome but if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. Now the backend is just full of upsells and nothing useful. Two weeks ago, this would have been a 5-star review. They pushed out an « update » that downgraded the plugin and broke most of the most useful features. Sad. And now we get to find a different plugin to use on all of my client websites, install and configure. At least a few days of work that didn’t need to happen if they had left a great plugin to remain great but they got too greedy and broke their plugin.

Three days ago there was a new version of the plugin. Completely different backend, basic settings disappeared completely. I can’t access the text on my maintenance page any more. The backend is filled up with upselling stuff. Very annoying. Has to go.

This plugin had one simple job to do for our clients show a custom text that can be switched on and off without us having to mess with htaccess and custom pages. Nothing fancy no need for custom backgrounds just a simple text page.Low and behold now we have to waste minutes setting everything up making sure it does not break with caching optimization. And basically costing us money as in time to use it because how unstable it behaves.Well we have found the perfect solution for this problem.We will begin removing this plugin from hundreds of our client sites and we will not be returning it ever again due to poor management decisions on this company part.When a company approves this kind of mess for production towards there users they clearly lack professional QA, QC management.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. This is one of the few plugins that I have been using with zero problems – until now. Lousy UI, confusing and my content is all mashed up. So disappointed.

Used to be my go to plugin but the latest update is ridiculously bad. Not only are the UI changes horrible (back- and frontend!) but it also simply doesn’t work anymore. Content changes are not saved, previously working content is now messed up, the full view close button is in the middle of the page, the HTML view adds styling elements on its own, while simultaneously somehow minifying everything as soon as you switch back to text mode and is then weirdly formated, making the normal text mode basically unusable as well…
