I took me a bit to make it work the way I wanted with all the subcategories, but after that has been working very well. Don’t need to worry to edit the front-end menu if you change name or delete in back-end, it will automatically do it.

Had been spending a lot of time adding menu items manually from my hierarchical categories. Still not too late to save time from now on. And it works great with Otography theme. Thank you developer!

What a wonderful plugin. I am handicapped and my right arm is not working well, but I own over 50 websites and have built all of them myself. Working with wrong hand (I am right handed and damaged right arm in accident) i.e. left hand takes time. I love everything automatic which makes my life easier. That is why I loooove this plugin. 🙂 Million thanks to the developer(s).
