The CPT slug "question" is bad coding style.

The CPT slug "question" is bad coding style.
A unique name had to be created.

Lost my patience with this plugin

By sorenjensen on September 7, 2024

This plugin is dead in the water I recommend find another solution before wasting your time and money trying to make it in to a useful feature for your website.

The look out of the box is as presentable as a forum from 1998. There are no way to make it look good and useful unless you spend a fair amount of development.

No improvements has been made for years. Still not a single Gutenberg widget exist, the few short codes existing are not useful in any way. The forum has plenty of promises for features that has never been made.

This plugin seems to be made and provided for free so that the developer can earn money on developing all the missing features that people need to make a useful Q&A for a site in 2024, "developer friendly" = for the developer who made the plugin .

I would prefer a premium plugin that is useful than a free plugin that is missing simple and vital functionality to implement and design it for your needs.

Easy to use and customize

By davidjosue11 on September 19, 2023

This Q&A plugin is very easy to setup and start using quickly. I like that it has a simple design that's fast and optimized. The developer tools make it really easy to customize the look and feel to match my site. Overall a great plugin!

Schema.org Markup advertised by the plugin does not exist

By zdmdesigns (zmdesignz) on July 20, 2023

I would like to make clear that this is a review, not a support request. The below reason is why I am rating this plugin with 1-star. If something is advertised in a plugin, it needs to actually exist.

Installed this plugin ONLY because it claims “SEO Friendly Questions and answers are search engine optimized, with schema.org markup.”

However, it does not. The schema markup does not exist. I tried validating the QA Pages through Schema.org and nothing appears. Same result in Google Rich Results Test.

Great questions answers plugin

Great plugin. No bloated extras and works seamlessly with Buddypress and activity stream. Integrates into existing theme. Perfect!

Very nice plugins

By Luka2013 on January 14, 2022

Very nice plugins but much work is still needed.

Missing a lot

By mrmaxdomains on January 9, 2022

The plugin makes an Q&A functionality that works. But it has several issues - It is made "DEVELOPER FRIENDLY" not "USER FRIENDLY" - The look is something from 1998 - You cant disble VOTE - You cant disable COMMENT - confusing controle of who can answer a question and who can make a comment

Excellent Plugin

By edifying on December 15, 2021

Support, code, functions, and performance everything is excellent

Can not answers with image Suddenly

By yephannibal on November 5, 2021

This plugin is great and works well and I set it auto-renew at the start. However, one day my users told me that they can not upload the image when answers, I WROTE an email to anspress team, they told me they will help me to solve this problem and charge me $85/hours. I still doubt their plugin detects my user's surge and closes this function for my website.
