Reviews

Great Recent Update

Really happy with the version 5.2 and 5.3 changes. Previously having the permissions locked to manage_options was causing issues getting granular access (certain roles should be able to use the embed functionality while others deal with creating / managing the shortcodes) Thanks for the update and continually making the plugin better mate.
