- Love it!
Its so great to finally have all my FAQ’s gathered in one place. I asked some of my users for feedback and they all had a good experience navigating between the different topics. Well done CM plugins!
ptichka - Very good!
Bear in mind that you’ll want the premium version to get all the features ($29 with a money back guarantee I think), but I love the idea behind this plugin, and its execution. You could do some cool stuff with this.
Tom Ewer - Friendly user interface
I installed the plugin in my site and it worked really nice. It made my user interface much more friendly and I liked that very much. I would like to make one suggestion – add nice icons to use on the sliding widget to installation.
Thank you guys!
etdagan - Simple but brilliant
The plugin doesn’t do much, but it does what it states. It could have some more customization options thou especially regarding the style of the icon.
Anyway. It’s a nice, clean way to add something not-that necessary to be on each page and slightly more visible than the footer.
