### 󠀁[Paragraph formatting](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/paragraph-formatting-2/)󠁿

I downloaded this because I loved the look of the extra features, and was sure it
would enhance my pages. Unfortunately, the moment I did, any pages where I wasn’t
using the page builder (such as blog posts and the fiction archive – another plugin)
started to look really really odd. Formatting went out the window, there were no
paragraphs (which if reading something over a few lines long can be very painful).
I played around for a bit, put in the < p > codes to highlight paragraphs etc but
nothing worked. In the end I had to deactivate it – which was painful as it had 
made my home page look really good (with the carousel for posts etc on it). If this
paragraphing issue can get sorted I will reactivate, but until that point, as I 
am running an archive for long stories and informative blog posts contributed by
people I don’t wish to have access to the back end of the site, I will have to stick
with using Quest on its own 🙁

### 󠀁[No 2/3 Columns!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/no-23-columns/)󠁿

It is so unfortunate that this plugin doesn’t allow one of the most basic layout
options, a 2/3 column. It is as basic as having a text-block widget. I was looking
for something light-weight and because of this one reason, this plugin fails.

I have still a lot of problems with this new page builder. It looks better but has
a lot of bugs. Don’t use it till the developer makes it work right!

### 󠀁[Wow. This plugin is great!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wow-this-plugin-is-great-2/)󠁿

This plug is a must if you’re using fishpig with magento. You can add structure 
to your posts and it works well without causing conflicts. Local magento theme css
files can even override theme styles so you don’t need to worry about updates on
your wordpress installation. The only thing I’m bummed about is a lack of column
layouts. I need 2/3’s options and I’m hoping that that will be introduced quickly.
Thank you for the great software! You ROCK!
