 * After testing the plugin I decided to deactivate it and delete it, then the Woocommerce
   native checkout page stopped loading in Elementor, it just came with an error
   everytime, I checked the database and this pluging had left hundreds of pieces
   of information behind like tables and strings of code, I contacted the developers
   but they never replied, I had to reinstall the site compleatly to get rid of 
   those errors, a waist of time! use it at your own risk.

 * Thank you for taking the time to comment here, although I think you may have 
   CartFlows confused with perhaps another plugin you use.
 * 1. You said “I contacted the developers but they never replied”. We searched 
   our ticket desk as well as the support forum here and have never been contacted
   by you. You don’t become the most used and most recommended sales funnel builder
   for WordPress without providing top tier support. We respond to all tickets in
   under 24 hours unless it is the weekend. This goes for free users and Pro customers.
 * 2. You said “I checked the database and this pluging had left hundreds of pieces
   of information behind like tables and strings of code”. This is simply not accurate
   of CartFlows and anyone can install and verify this. First, CartFlows doesn’t
   add any tables to your WordPress database. Second, CartFlows, like all WordPress
   plugins, makes a few entries in the wp-options table (every plugin does this).
   It has no effect on your website or database, and as I said, every WordPress 
   plugin does this. That’s what the wp-options table is there for, this is how 
   WordPress works.
 * 3. You said “Woocommerce native checkout page stopped loading in Elementor”. 
   The free version of Elementor does not let you design WooCommerce controlled 
   pages like product page, shop page, cart page, checkout page, etc. These are 
   features that you can have if you purchase Elementor Pro. But all of that has
   no relation to CartFlows.
 * The core version of CartFlows allows you to create a new global checkout page
   using any page builder you choose. This is a side feature where the main feature
   is building sales funnels. To date, we have over 100k users that choose CartFlows
   to power their ecommerce website. We are hyper-focused on performance, simplicity,
   and enabling our users to maximize the sales of their ecommercce stores.
 * If you want one of our engineers to look at your database to see what’s going
   on there, feel free to contact us via our ticket desk. However, it is a technical
   impossibility for CartFlows to have created any tables in your database.

 * Bro, I know what I saw and what you plugin did to our site, I did send a message
   to your email address and they took more than a week to reply with some generic
   answer, I had to waist 3 days because of this, fortuntely it’s fixed now. BTW
   I was using a couple of different plugins to create custom checkout pages which
   worked fine, but after I installed this plugin they simply stopped working. Actually
   it was my fault because I should have known that wordpress developers are not
   the best and I should have taken more precautions.

 * Well sorry for the mixup. Let me be clear here, we don’t have a support email
   address. There are only 2 ways to seek support:
 * 1. Here on WordPress.org where we have responded to everyone’s request
    2. The
   support request form on the CartFlows website which goes to our ticket desk. 
   You would receive an immediate email confirmation and we respond to every request
   in under 24 hours, but many times it’s under 4 – 8 hours. Unless it’s the weekend.
 * As I said, we have no record of a support ticket from you or anything related
   to the WordPress database. If we did have a ticket we would have responded to
   it promptly as we do for all of our users.
 * We are sorry that you didn’t have a pleasant experience here and wish you the
   best.

 * A generalization like “wordpress developers are not the best” is just plain ignorant,
   or more likely it’s projection… a reflection of their own inadequacies managing
   a WordPress site. Clearly cyela is not a developer or else they would have first
   backed up their site/db, and could have avoided the mess they got themselves 
   into. Then again, the blame first types never think they’re at fault.
 * As a WP dev, it’s frustrating to have to read these kinds of comments. If they
   actually wanted to address the issue, they’d have detailed their steps so that
   their particular issue could be replicated. But this just sounds like sour grapes
   because they couldn’t be bothered to mitigate the risks before trying a new plugin.
