review · 1 starsAfter 10.000 views/month the iframe is still working but below the iframe a small “powered by” notice with a link to the pro version is shown. That is a no go. Uninstalled.
Hi, This is clearly mentioned in the description: LIMITATIONS OF THE FREE VERSION The free version has no functional restrictions and is for personal and non-commercial sites. After 10.000 views/month the iframe is still working but below the iframe a small “powered by” notice with a link to the pro version is shown. If you hit this limit and you qualify for the free license please contact me to get a version with a higher limit. So if you have a personal and non-commercial site simply send me an e-mail. No problem to get a higher limit. I think it is fair if you make money with a website or are a big company to pay a a small one time fee for the developer who needs a lot of time for development and support. I tried it with donations first- Unfortunately this does not work. Most of the 10 donation a year where 1 Cent! Paypal fee is already 30 cent minimum! So there were 3 options for me: Do it like I do it now, reduce the features to a minimum like many others do or stop the project. Reducing features would also punish the many, many private sites who need a very good iframe integration and do not make any money at all. e.g. wpforo has 15 Addones where each of it is more expensive than my plugin. For things like attachments and emoticons! And for an update after one year you need to pay again! This is not the way I wanted to go. Best regards, Michael
