What's going wrong
Many site owners installed the free version of this portfolio and gallery plugin expecting a working gallery, then found layout options, columns, styling, video and most settings locked behind a paid upgrade. Some said the free tier only let them upload images with a title and link, which was not enough to finish a client portfolio. Several gave one-star ratings and uninstalled within minutes. The gap is a clear opening for a trustworthy comparison that shows exactly what each tier includes before anyone installs, or a small companion that unlocks basic settings for a fee.
