I’ve written 5 emails to get the service done … they don’t respond.

You are unable to receive leads to your preferred Emailing system Customers cannot
contact you via a call function as there is no option for that. You cannot make 
any adjustments to your page listing using elementor on the free version After requesting
if a few small changes can be done if you purchase the custom page extension for
$49 annually , They replied that it will require development at a charge of $630.
The Changes needed: Hide paragraph display, Add call function button, Add area for
video, remove the State,zip, town search bar and add a paragraph block for a disclaimer.
Most These changes could be done if the Elementor function is available.

La verdad que este plug-in tiene muchas funcionalidades perfectas. Pero al agregar
la lista de carros se desbordan las letras en las versiones, móviles y tablet. Incluso
compré una extensión para integrarlo con elementor llamada ” Custom Page” y fue 
igual, las letras se desbordan y dañan el diseño Si hay una solución indíquemela

brilliantly.

There is no “Auto Listings” under Settings or anywhere else. So I can’t even use
it. Embarrassing and unprofessional.
