Reviews

November 22, 2021
Had an SEO idea for Flowers and was stoked to try this, but ultimately this was pretty disappointing. Needs way more features to actually be useful. Some ideas: - A general integration with WooCommerce seems like the best solution - Maybe a way to separate portions of the site into shortcodes for stuff like [product-list] [cart] [checkout] [order-status] - A way to keep the payment gateway on the site. I can't imagine people are going to finish the checkout if it randomly goes to a blank white page with a credit card field... Hopefully you guys can improve the plugin! I will be looking into the API option, but definitely way less likely to pursue the project as I'm more of an SEO guy rather than a developer.
