1. The big blue status messages are terrible and very unprofessional. Why wouldn't you use drupal's messaging system? Even if you needed them to be ajax at least use the same DOM so their style is consistent.

This small detail makes the module feel very sloppy. It says to me that the developer has no drupal experience and is just duct-taping something together. Should I worry about the integrity of my database? etc.

2. Didn't even work: I tried creating a new page draft, and when I went to edit it none of the fields were populated.

At this point, I'm giving up and removing this module from my site. Nice idea, but it needs a lot of attention.

Just because you cannot get the module working does not mean the module is broken. Never point a finger at a person since you generally get three pointing back at yourself.

As for not knowing Drupal i will leave that as your opinion you are entitled too it.

However instead of just going off at the mouth regarding something in the module you could ask why it was done that way rather than the way you suggest?

Anyway if you don't want to use the module don't use it that is the whole part of freedom of choice.
However don't fill up the issue queue with drivel such as this posting.

If you want help ask for it, if you find something not working provide a test case, if you want something changed / altered put in an issue asking for it.

I'm sorry friend! I can see I have offended you :( I tend to be an ass over the internet without realizing it.

I never meant to call this module broken or doubt your development abilities. You're clearly a very talented and dedicated developer to even take on a project like this!

I simply wanted to give you a blunt and honest description of my experience. I thought I was being helpful really :( because maybe some people experience this too but never talk about it so candidly or bring it to your attention.

My apologies again! You do great work here and the drupal community is lucky to have you.

Take Care!
