One of the Top 3 WordPress plugins
This plugin is absolutely awesome and should be one of the TOP 3 WordPress plugins in any category ! A game changer plugin.

It’s a Doozy – Love this Plugin
I use this plugin with ACF and it saved me the time to handcode templates and snippets to file by way of Elementor, and it served Relationship field types like a champ.
This allowed me to save the money I would have otherwise had to spend in time (manual coding) and money (buying a paid plugin to serve bidirectional Relationships fields that wasn’t available in standard/pro Elementor).
Thank you VERY much for this gem.

Excellent Plugin
Loops & Logic is awesome! Makes it so easy to build out dynamic content and support has been amazing.
-
Words are not enough…!
This is amazing. Saved me hours and hours, and ended up with a much better site in the end.
-
Amazing!
Wow, what can I say but amazing! I agree with others that this should be in the top five plugins!
Yes, this plugin is not for folks who don’t code, but is a great plugin for someone who wants to start. However, for folks like myself who like to code, who do code, and who makes custom sites — this plugin is a game changer.
One plugin to rule them all!

Love this plugin
Makes rapid dev of loop-content pages extremely easy and is likewise lightweight. This should really be part of wordpress core. Fantastic!

The plugin is great and the support is awesome
The best support I’ve ever had! I’m not even kidding!

</ul>- To open a CPT loop, use the Post Type Slug in the type attribute. You can sort the returned posts by a custom field with
orderby_fieldororderby_field_number - To save a bit of time, you can use Switch/When tags for your logic instead of If/Else. This saves you from having to pass your field to each statement. This rating section could also be written as:
<If check="{Field acf_radio=rating}" value=1>★☆☆☆☆<Else if check="{Field acf_radio=rating}" value=2 />★★☆☆☆etc. - Use Set and Get to save pieces of markup for use elsewhere. In this example it’s being used for the inner author content, so that it can be placed into alternate wrappers depending on whether there’s a website link available
- When using alternate wrappers, it’s usually best to approach things this way instead of wrapping the opening and closing tags each in their own if statement
