Amazing work. Haven't looked deep enough yet, is there an option for limiting posted classifieds of any User? Thanks for your work.

Boyka_Dhaliwal September 12, 2020

I love this plugin and its functionality is awesome that what I need.

Imago July 22, 2020

It is a really professional plugin for all those who pay attention to proper location, precise taxonomy and allround description of the property or service listed for sale or for rent. The plugin can be used in many intelligible and trans-intelligible ways for multiple purposes, actually for anything you can think of. As always in the last 3 thousand years, great work coming to us from a great country.

sergioot July 16, 2020

El plugin está muy bien, por ahora no me ha dado ningún problema, incluso lo he probado con el tema Hueman y le dejé activas las opciones de Bootstrap y no tiene ningún conflicto. Lo único es que aún no está en español, yo traduje algo, espero que alguien ayude. Gracias a los creadores y colaboradores de este complemento.
