 * I have been using this plugin for a while now. Somewhere in the first half of
   this year, the owners eliminated functionality. The changes are not mentioned
   in the change log. Pre-generated codes were always perfectly sold. But all of
   a sudden, not anymore. It is mandatory to select a generator with pre-generated
   codes. But for my user case, that’s not an option.
 * After finding out about this issue, I received a message that it would be fixed.
   It’s been a few months now, and I still get the message that it will be fixed.
   However, because of the time that has already passed, I am losing confidence 
   in this. Therefore, 2 stars for taking a very long time to resolve the issue 
   and changing functionality without checking in with users. There are more people
   using this functionality, I expect.
 * **Update 11-10-2023:**
   After the escalation of the issue, the problem was fixed
   very soon. Everything works as described again now. Did some testing, everything
   seems okay now. You can now manually generate codes and sell the codes. Perfectly
   solved. Before this matter, I was pleased about this plugin, so enough reasons
   for me to restore to the original 5 stars. Hope to be using this plugin for a
   long time!!

 * Hello [@boukekoning](https://wordpress.org/support/users/boukekoning/),
 * Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We truly value the input
   of our users, and I’m genuinely sorry to hear about the frustration you’ve experienced
   due to the changes in our plugin.
 * Software development is indeed a dynamic process, with the landscape continuously
   evolving. As we strive to improve and adapt our plugin to meet the diverse needs
   of our user base, sometimes functionalities might change or be adapted. We always
   aim to ensure that these changes result in a more efficient and user-friendly
   experience. However, we understand that, at times, this might not always align
   with the individual use cases of all our users.
 * It’s concerning to hear that the issue you flagged hasn’t been resolved in a 
   timely manner, especially after you’ve been informed that it would be fixed. 
   We take such concerns very seriously and will double down on our efforts to address
   this. Additionally, we’ll review our change log communication process to ensure
   that any changes, especially those affecting key functionalities, are clearly
   documented. Rest assured, a new update has been released that resolves the issue
   you encountered.
 * Please know that your feedback is instrumental in helping us improve. While bugs
   and issues can be an inherent part of software development, it’s the feedback
   from dedicated users like you that helps us identify and rectify them efficiently.
 * Again, I hate you had that experience, and would love the chance to earn back
   your trust.

 * Hi Mehedi,
 * Thank you for your response. I just checked the new version, and everything seems
   to work as expected! Thanks!!
 * I understand your plead in the evolution of code etc. Of course everyone wants
   their product to be better. But in my case, one of the options that is even on
   your option list was drastically changed. Serials generated by the plugin were
   sold perfectly, until a hidden change. And therefore manual generated codes were
   not sold anymore. A function that is even mentioned on the feature list. And 
   changing or even stopping functionality is something dangerous in my opinion,
   customers rely on that.
 * But all this in mind: it’s fixed now and glad it is. My next event is coming 
   up, and now it seems that I don’t have to manually generate codes in a different
   application to be sols, but just use the build in generator, which works perfectly
   now. And the testing in selling is going perfectly too. So I am happy.
 * All the best!!
   Bouke
