Thanks for your comments, we will work on other solutions.
I was reflecting on what was bugging me about this – it’s not that you’re advertising, obviously, it’s that it’s “outside” the plugin.
If you would like suggestions, I would consider:
– Putting a one-liner with a link in the dashboard graph “More plugins from SumoMe”
– If the user has more than one of your plugins installed, then adding a SumoMe category on the left with the links to things they would want to do frequently. I’m guessing that other plugins have more activities associated with them.
(Love your team profile images BTW.)
Also consider that there are quite a few users that mange multiple sites… I can a sure you that after the 3rd site where you have to do useless clicks to get rid of the sumomebar one does not think more positive about the makers of this plugin.
So your positive intentions might lead to negative results 🙂
Just my 2cents..Goodluck with your plugins!
I would also like to raise the concern that many of us are developers who recommend your plugins to our professional clients after consistent positive experiences. Suddenly following an update, an *ad* is displayed in the _administrative area_ of the site. This isn’t the way to build trust and potentially reflects badly on the person who integrated it.
I understand the need to promote yourself and make money, but there are more tasteful ways to do it.
pardon the piggyback – I am updating a client’s website and this plugin, do you know if it has been changed? But for the security vulnerability I would leave it as is.
@ssmeredith – no it has not.
You really should update though because the security vulnerability that’s fixed allows anyone to reset the plugin.
