This plug-in works so well it hasn’t needed any updates for 2 years. Nothing out
there matches it. However, because it hasn’t been updated in so long my security
software is now flagging it as “abandoned.” Please “update” the plug-in! (Maybe 
to include not stripping formatting from the excerpt?)

 [sylvsteph](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sylvsteph/) April 28, 2021

This plugin is really excellent. It works for me with Wordpress 5.7. I would be 
nice that the Developer makes a test and declare the plugin compabible (or not) 
for the last version of wordpress.

In the beginning this plugin was great, but several months ago, the developer has
abandoned it. No answers in the support forum, and not updates. Best regards.
