Perfect plugin and great support!

By scalbox on September 27, 2023

I downloaded the plugin to add changelog support to my products and the plugin here has already been great.
I also needed to have integration with Dokan which the plugin didn't offer.
I wrote to support about this need of mine and in less than 24 hours they updated the plugin and integrated support for dokan!
They were great, that's what you call real tech support!
Highly recommended plugin and excellent support!
Gri I would give more than 5 stars if I could.
Thanks again for the support
