Hi, Without expiration date of coupons show “Expired” coupons in the home page. This issue in new version.
the expiry message display problem solved- it was problem because of the cliper theme update. Now it is working good.
When i Put widgets in Side bar Footer moves to left and visible properly
Hi there, Yes you cannot add the plugin created widget at sidebar because it may break the design. The plugin widgets mainly designed accordingly content html. You can use all other widget which not added by plugin for sidebar.
See Vipul you are not understanding me . i am using only inbuilt side bar widgets. let us example when i use 4 widgets in side bar then there will be no gap between each widgets observed and 3 lines below all the 4 widgets observed in side bar and also my footer moves to right which is making my site worst look, Please look into the matter and revert back soon. Hoping for genuine reply.
Mr. Vipul I am still waiting for your reply.

Hi!
I have a problem with the plugin! The tabs work fine in Chrome but it doesn’t work in firefox and Safari. Who is the problem?
my website http://www.promokody24.ru
Hi very sorry for the delay.
You have included all js in footer and with that “tabs.min.js” also include in bottom that’s why the tabs not working.
Because our plugin create dynamic tabs and it require tabs js at top.
Thanks
Hi,
Can I add any widget to the Home Content Area or just the ones created by you? I would like to add text widget right below the slider and include images and texts, I think your plugin can do that for me. Does this plugin work on Flatter child theme? Because I am using Flatter with side bar layout
Regards,
Bruno.
Hi Bruno,
You can create any widget in the home area but the main thing is the look of new widget area. Because it may not set with the current look of home page. So need some change for that and rest of all ok.
Yes the plugin will work with Flatter .
If you feel and problem we will help you.
Thanks
