Pratique !](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-pratique/)󠁿 [Fenisa](https://profiles.wordpress.org/fenisa/) December 20, 2017 Work fine Very easy to use. Si comme moi vous avez traduit votre thème, allez changer la phrase exacte dans l’éditeur d’extension. En dessous de la ligne 15. If like me you had translated your theme, go and change the exact text with the plugin editor. Bellow line 15 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/25ff1be9071ce9d3ac72d0382e4bb0e421fa0d980fca4bc8ba3ac5c813b4d56e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works great!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-3698/)󠁿 [AxKa](https://profiles.wordpress.org/axka/) February 11, 2017 The PlugIn is great. If you are having problems, read on the homepage of the author. You may have to change the text in the plugin php file to make it work but that is very simple. It will work for you, BUT READ THE COMMENTS ON THE AUTHORS PLUGIN HOMEPAGE!
