 * All looked very well when I started using the plugin. But when I wanted to expand
   functionality I ran into a brick wall. The source is poorly written, inconsistent
   spaghetti code which makes it very hard to build upon without having to hack 
   into the plugin source itself.

 * Parts of the code do need updating to make it cleaner. It was originally not 
   developed to be expandable, however I have always been open to people asking 
   for actions and filters to be added in to help them accomplish this. So I checked
   back and can’t see where you contacted us to help you out with that. But thank
   you for the review.

 * Have you seen [http://quirm.net/eshop-add-ons/](http://quirm.net/eshop-add-ons/)?
 * All of those add-on plugins were possible because the core eShop plugin provided
   the hooks & filters needed to develop new functionality or extend existing functionality.
   In quite a few cases, people contacted us specifically to ask for new hooks &
   filters to make their add-on development easier and we have always added them
   asap.
 * Did you at least try to contact us about it?
