Buen plugin pero…

Marcos Antonio Blanco دجنبر 22, 2022 2 replies
Diseño bonito y útil para mostrar enlace a redes de todos los autores de un artículo. Le faltan un par de características para hacerlo perfecto: No funciona en páginas, sólo en posts. No se puede seleccionar al usuario a mostrar si pones el Widget. Añadir enlaces que no sean las 4 redes sociales que permite: Si quieres poner enlace a Mastodon, GitHub u otras redes, no es posible. EDIT: Actualizada calificación.

Très bon plugin

Vito LENTINI أكتوبر 17, 2020 1 reply
Merci pour ce plugin qui fait bien son rôle. Cependant, j'aurai aimé pouvoir avoir le choix de ne pas l'afficher sur les pages et articles, afin de pouvoir l'intégrer seulement dans un widget. Merci pour ce plugin. Cordialement. Vitoutso

just what I needed

sharon9923 أبريل 24, 2019
I needed a plugin that includes an option to display the author's email, and this one does. Works beautifully and configured in minutes. It includes bio and website of course.

nice plugin

cyberflow أكتوبر 22, 2018
