Connections Connects with Genealogist

4. mars, 2021
The Connections plugin is simply the best directory plugin for WordPress. None of the other three plugins I tried had both the flexibility and ease-of-use required to build a unique Genealogy website. Using the plugins ability to exclude categories, for example, I have created three very different pages: Ancestors, Connections, and Obituaries. Also, I am over the moon happy with my purchase of the Extension Pro Pack. It is an awesome package of useful additions that help me engage with other family members. Did I say the site is gorgeous? That's the product. Add the outstanding support by Steven and I got a complete solution. Thank you! – John P. Elcik, Ed.D.

Amazing Plugin plus Outstanding, Responsive Support

4. febrúar, 2021
The plugin is well done. However, what really makes it outstanding is the support provided by Steven Zahm. If you are looking for a directory plugin, look no further. It is versatile and flexible and easy to use. I have been in the service business for a long time and understand the value of strong customer support. Steven's support is superb. My only regret is that I can't give the product and Steven a 5 star+++++ rating.

Connections Business Directory has totally met my business directory needs. The whole plugin is very well documented upstream to consider the strategy to adopt. Moreover this one can be supplemented by some additional extensions at prices more than affordable to transform it into a real Swiss Army knife. About Steven's support... What can I say?
