GoodThinking

I understand your point however I am not sure you understood mine.
I did not ask you to fix anything in exchange for a good rating. I posted an observation I noted while being requested to install and configure your plugin. A client bought your plugin without asking for any suggestions as to what they were trying to accomplish. I put personal time in configuring your plugin (no payment) and, in the end, I noted a strange behavior in relation to wordpress, specifically a deleted user given permission to read restricted content through your plugin would still be able to see it until the session was closed (browser closed or logs off). More, your plugin appears to ignore other user management solutions designed to manage user permissions, for e.g., approve them before they are able to see the content.

I made the recommendation to move to a different solution and I came here to discuss my observation.

To cover all bases, I did not want to leave you with a bad rating if my observations were incorrect. Therefore, I said I would be willing to change my rating if proven incorrect.

Since nobody pays me to fix less than satisfactory paid plugins, I saw no reason to contact the developer directly for a “fix”.

I hope this clarifies my position in respect to your work. If I were you, I would go ahead and address the issue and not get defensive in this medium. As a matter of fact, I provided you with a bug you did not see, and I did this again for free.

In all, I want to make other users aware of the above issues and I believe this qualifies as good netizen behavior anywhere, and including this ww.wp.xz.cn forum.
