Misleading product description, allows you to set up pre configured ‘Recipes’ that don’t work in the free version which wastes you a lot of time. Please, please be more clear and stop trying to trick people. Hi @gwd74 I sincerely apologize for the confusion and any frustration caused. It was never our intention to mislead anyone, and we truly appreciate your feedback. We’ve taken this issue seriously, and the latest version of the plugin improves clarity regarding which features are available in the free version and which require add-ons. Recipes are now accessible based on the installed add-ons and the version in use. Thank you for bringing this to our attention—we’re committed to making our plugin as user-friendly as possible. If you have any further concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
