    I am testing your plugin and will mention things that come up for me as I look at the UI and how things work… I am doing this since I came across your post at the Advanced WP Facebook group, and found it intriguing.

    Installed plugin screen: Add a settings link to the left of Deactivate link.

    WPR Admin Amplify take a lot of space in the left sidebar (a bit too noisy in regards to other sidebar items). It would be better to keep the title on 1 line. Perhaps as a title here just have WPR Admin. As the user clicks they will also see WPR Admin Amplify.
    Perhaps make the icon a little blurred as well.

    WPR Admin Amplify General (Settings)

    Allow php in widgets? I am sure there was/is a trac ticket for this. I thought that this was already in place in core? Same for allowing shortcodes in widgets? Check into both.

    I clicked the other tabs and noticed a lot of text. Since I am doing a quick run through I also quickly browsed through the text.

    Let me know when you have added a video tutorial into the description section as that should show really how things are done.

    Have a great continued Christmas holiday!

    It is not overtly mentioned, but images can be placed into a private folder. When done, the data is gathered from the image on the backend and therefore the file is not directly available. This can help site owners protect their images. Unchecking the box will return the file to the wp-uploads folder. This can be used in conjuction with the membership functionality.

    Also not readily obvious is when using the membership, the menu options can also be categorized based on membership level. The meta box (on the left hand side) is not active by default and has to be made visible by going to the very top of the page, clicking the screen options tab and enabling the Tax Member Categories.

    Interesting!

    The plugin has a lot of interesting potential!

    A few more things that come up for me in regards to the UI.
    There are a lot of All WPRPages etc.
    Just remove the mention of all and just use WPRPPage, WPRCRPs etc.

    You should also find a way to lessen the words in the various tabs as right now it seems more like a “this plugin does the following….” and then we see somekind of written material explaining what the plugin does. Too many words then it is a concept. Just the right mix of words, images and tooltips then it becomes a tool.

    Haha, never been good at that. Takes a lot of time for presentation. I tried making video tutorials once, that didn’t turn out so well either. I over explain because I want to provide as much detail as possible. Planning out the right words, planning and the actually creating the right images, editing repeatedly,etc. That is a job in and of itself. Will spend time with it though and try to improve the presentation.

    Write down the features and group them into categories.
    Just create an overview. Details can be added later.

    One just wants a short overview of what your plugin does. Not a big lump of words.
    It makes a better readable description.

    Feature 1
    Something……
    Something…..

    Feature 2
    Something….
    Something….

    Feature 3

    Feature 4

    Do not add the details at this stage. The details are for you.

    Btw
    Stage 1 – I just want to know what your plugin can do.
    Use simple bullet pointers and a short intro video showing basics of features.
    You can have one short video and a longer that goes more into detail.

    Stage 2 – I have downloaded your plugin and want to see how things work in a practical way. WIth images, very few words, tooltips and dropdowns/accordions/tabs whichever way you have decided on showing how things are done in a practical way.

    Bottom line. Example: I have a few seconds to read about what your plugin does. And if the words explain well I might even look at the 3-4 minute video to see how things can be done.
