 [Le chef Isidore](https://profiles.wordpress.org/isidore1964/) Dawout 29, 2022

This is exactly what I was looking for in order to be able to send personalized 
publications to subscribers which other plugins do not do and simple to configure.
Not to mention responsive support Thanks to the Developers

I wanted to allow readers to subscribe to what they were interested in and this 
was the plugin I needed. It’s simple and straightforward and works. The maintainer
is also very helpful and responsive. The one feature I’m waiting for is to be able
to have the author’s name in the email.

### 󠀁[widget does not work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/widget-does-not-work-8/)󠁿

This has wasted me a lot of time. The widget does not work. It does appear on the
sidebar, but attributes simply do not work. I tried many variations and read the
instructions, and was very sure I did the way as instructed. But no, it does not
work. Something does happen based on the attributes entered, but completely unpredictable
and unreliable.

No nonsense plugin without unnecessary marketing features. Simple and with good 
documentation, if you bother to read through it carefully (which I didn’t but that’s
on me). Active and helpful developer with great support. Even got in a call with
me to help, far beyond anything you can demand. Getting a placeholder for the updated
category without “Term:” and “found.” would be great but that’s too small an issue
to complain about.

This plugin does exactly what it should and it comes with amazing support. Some 
other review says: “Do one thing and do it well” I totally agree.
