Really liked the plugin. As a developer I can note the competent code and clear structure of the plugin. As a user - everything is done conveniently to create the necessary fields, convenient insertion on the page, support for different post types, and for the introduction of Editor JS separate respect. Also the author provides excellent support for his product, promptly answering questions and implementing additional features if necessary.

Professional and good looking plugin.And very good attention from Aleksan, always willing to help.

For what I needed, this plugin was perfect. Simple and compact. I just needed a plugin that allowed guests to post updates about the surrounding area we live in. After trying multiple plugins (that were either too complicated or required more than what I was budgeted for), I came across this gem. The only drawback is that it currently doesn't implement a captcha system, but the author stated that's going to happen in an upcoming release. So if you are looking for a simple, and easy-to-use, front-end guest posting plugin, this is definitely the one to use. The best feature about this though is that the plugin pages use an integrated chat where the actual author of the plugin responds! Amazing.

Love it. Everything about it, including the personal immediate attention of the plugin creator. The flexibility of controls and the power this gives to wordpress will disruptively revolutionize social media everywhere, if wordpress users use this plugin and run with it.
