 * A recent minor update broke the layout on one of my sites. That may be alright
   for a major point update, but certainly not for a .x update, and certainly not
   without a clear warning in the changelog (which I always read before updating
   anything).
 * Makes me scared to use this plugin on bigger sites. Not recommended.

 * Rootside, it sure would be nice if you submit a support request so that we can
   figure out what went wrong.
 * Did you read the FAQ which leads to [https://aihrus.zendesk.com/entries/23722573-Major-Changes-Since-2-10-0](https://aihrus.zendesk.com/entries/23722573-Major-Changes-Since-2-10-0)?
   I suspect, you only need to check the “Use q tags” in your settings and widget
   options panel to get the display fine.

 * No support needed, thanks – you made changes in the plugin that broke the layout
   on a site, and now I have to adjust my CSS.
 * I’m sure those changes are for the better, and I agree that we have a certain
   responsibility to make sure that updates work with our code. I can also understand
   that not everything can be perfect, compliant and water-tight at the first try.
   But an update that changes things at the front end should at least be clearly
   labelled as such – with a warning in the changelog, or as a major update.
 * I know there was a major rewrite last year or so – that was clearly communicated
   and I could adjust everything before upgrading. Now, after a (apparently) minor
   update, things are messed up again. Makes me think I need to inspect every detail
   of this plugin every time there’s an update.

 * I appreciate the feedback. I agree that changes need to be conveyed and they 
   are via the Upgrade Notices and [Changelog](http://aihr.us/testimonials-widget/changelog/).
 * I’m wondering if you recall from what version you made the jump.
 * Also, what kind of CSS changes are you having to make? I might be able to adapt
   something to help prevent your troubles from happening to others.

 * Have you had any further troubles with the Testimonials Widget plugin?
