Having a review done by us or having an interview helps the traffic to the developers website, as was bought to our attention recently when we did an interview and reviewed a plugin for a developer who sent us snap shots of their traffic before and after the shows. The traffic stayed, so there are great benefits to being reviewed by WP Plugins A to Z. Submit Your Plugin Here.

Listener Feedback / Audio Clips
I like listener feedback. You can leave feedback via our contact page, Speakpipe or email us directly.
John in your PUGs No More Episode 434 you highlighted MASTER SLIDER. It is the thing I was looking for since those slider options are not available in Elementor.
But you said that you can only enter one image at a time and I have sliders for one of my client with 100 photos or more so I was disappointed to hear.
But I decided to try it and in fact you can multi select multiple images by clicking and drawing the selection over all the image icons.
So it works perfect and I love it. Thank you!!!
Some clarification is that I meant it could only add one at a time to it but, I discovered later you could add a bunch at once.

ClassicPress Options
ClassicPress is a fast growing fork of WordPress that is starting to come into its own. ClassicPress is focused on Business Websites runs fast and is looking pretty good. There are a few plugins specifically for ClassicPress and all plugins for WordPress 4.9.9 work well on it. I do believe it has a future.
One thing I am looking forward to in the ClassicPress World is the expansion of the number of ClassicPress specific plugins and their own repository. Currently there are not a lot of ClassicPress specific plugins but I do know it is going to grow and I’ll have to expand this segment then. Who knows, it could take over the whole show.
This week for ClassicPress I have:
