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. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Should just do the redirection on login, but has a bunch of hacky layout styling and other features that are both over the top and badly implemented. Breaks the layout of the login page and it seems like you can’t disable them.

    I am developing a big site for a non-profit organisation with many pages, multiple levels of menu and forms. Sky Login Redirect saved the day. It made the crucial difference to a user’s navigation experience as it allowed a user to login and stay on the page. Without it user journey would be a huge problem. Most appreciated and thank you.

    I use this plugin together with events manager to assure that my users stay on the selected page after they logged in to insert new events or manage existing events or bookings. This works now for some years fine. With one of the recent updates I got some errors. I used the forum to contact the plugin developer. He reacted really fast. After having described the effect, he published a new, corrected version only a few days later. Now everything works again as expected. Thanks for this fast and effective support, Matt!
