Has great potential though not ready for prime time

Edit 10/29/24
The new update feels smoother on the computer and seems more optimized. The query builder, which previously took a ton of time to refresh in the editor, has improved significantly. Overall stability appears to have increased, though there is still plenty of room for improvement. I’m revising my rating to 4.

Hello @Hasib_Wpmet
Thanks for getting back. I am still working with the support, they shared with me a fixed version of the plugin, which unfortunately did not work for me. This is on the left alignment of post info fields in the query builder loop. The other issue for the same query block was for the content filtering. I did read another comment here from a user who reported this issue a month or two ago. I hope the team is taking the query builder with priority. For now, I have resorted back to the default query loop block and using Gutenkit Advanced Image utilizing AFC image field, this setup is much more stable for me. Oh and there is one more issue about the unnecessary template changes, I am not sure how to replicate or document it - In short, whenever I edit a post (or any other content) template that is using a custom header made with Guten elements, upon saving the main template it would almost always ask me to save changes for the header pattern too; However there were no changes made to the header. So, for each template edit, there is a new revision created for header. Sometimes the header gets messed up, misaligned blocks, so then I have to go back and revert to a previous working revision. It just stresses me out, the only changes I see in the header revisions is change in id from, example .gkit4622bc to .gkit000684. That is the only change for 99% of times. I wonder why it would keep doing that. I only emailed the team about this issue briefly a few days ago.

I'd wait before I make changes to the ratings. Gutenkit has potential, also potential buyers should know that the product it is not ready yet for production websites. I have been struggling myself. Well, unless you bribe me with the best Tier available for the offering on AppSumo ;) I believe it is Tier3 or 4 , ha ha!

Things I liked, (5 stars)
- Product support
- Support team is responsive, though not available in US hours, they would usually get back in 12 hours to a couple of days
 - Concept
- advanced blocks available within Gutenberg editor
- Would love to see upcoming features. Team is headed in right direction.

What I did not like, (0 stars)
1. Bugs, bugs, bugs
- the issues are making me nervous. I have several hours wasted in a day to get around a defect. Or I am doing a write up for the support team to get it fixed.

Overall, the product is promising, I loved its query builder and ability to quickly attach an ACF field to the advanced image block. Lovely execution. Had the product been free from the basic functionality issues, it certainly deserves 7 stars.
