No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

    Плагин полезный. Не сложный. Был рабочий. Но зачем-то его кардинально переделали и он перестал работать. То есть просто нет связи с ботом по api и всё. Так что ставьте ту версию 0.11 которая еще называлась Contact Form 7 + Telegram, она работает стабильно на разных сайтах.

    После обновления плагин посыпался. Боты сбрасываются, сначала работают , через минуту настройки ломаются, боты и чаты пропадают из интерфейса. Верните прежнюю версию, плиз!Внимание! Проверено на двух темах – Вудмарт и на самописной теме “чистой”! Проблема именно в плагине! This topic was modified 5 months, 2 weeks ago by deus1725.

    After the plugin update, the shortcode used in CF7 forms was removed. As a result, it is now displayed as plain text inside the form. When releasing such updates, it is important to provide migrations and maintain backward compatibility. If functionality is removed, a fallback or automatic replacement mechanism should be left in place to avoid breaking existing forms. This topic was modified 5 months, 2 weeks ago by KosTeams.
