I used the paid pro version of the plugin. Using the plugin delayed the loading times of the website considerably. After an update i could no longer configure the Image Hover Effects Pro plug-in because the configuration page in the Wordpress dashboard was no longer loaded. Only the loading symbol is displayed, I can no longer make any changes. Deactivating other plugins (for example the caching plugin) and also deactivating and reactivating Image Hover Effects Pro did not have any success. The answer to my inquiry came several days later – far too long for a commercial product used on a customer website.

Sadly, the plugin makes the loading of my pages very slow and on the tablet often the pages dont load at all. I have bought the pro version but getting service took so many steps that i take my loss and i will use an other plugin.
