    – Mr. Lester developed the plugin. Good – Mr. Lester sold the plugin to Lionsher. Not bad, since it was supported by mr. Bhavesh Akhade – Mr. Bhavesh Akhade quit tech support. Bad – None at Lionsher is now capable to support the plugin. One month on tech support with Miss Emma, who could not help to solve issues. She stopped replying to emails. Very very bad Stay away This topic was modified 3 years, 8 months ago by Blutarsky.

    Great plugin, works perfect for my organization and my multisite installation. I tested a few ‘social login’ plugins for WordPress. And I must say that this plugin is the best in allowing a full installation without issues. All my Google App or Google Suite or Google Workplace users can now log into my WordPress Multisite installation. Thanks for this great plugin. Easy to set up. Great documentation available too.

    I purchased both the Google login plugin and the Intranet plugin. I’m not super technical and had problems getting the apps configured correctly. Support was outstanding! They got me up and running in no time. The plugins work perfectly…I’m very happy. Highly recommended!
