I thought he was part of the Oxwall development team.
This is the major problem with purchasing plugins on oxwall. As the softwares core developes independant plugins run the risk of becoming un usable. not good when you invest money in them.
Oxwall should allow other developers to take them on and keep them upto date.
Im actually gutted by this but the plugin is still showing up in my purchased list so i am hoping the developer is just taking a short break.

he hasn't updated his plug ins since 1.7.2 and 1.7.3 he did update smiley in November but it is still buggy and he hasn't fixed it, his other plug ins are still not updated, he seems to of abandoned Oxwall, as he is part of the Oxwall team he should allow them to implement smileys into the core software or let another dev take it on and fix it

i've pretty much given up with oxwall as far as updates go. Any issues i have, i'm paying a dev to fix and any features i want i'm just getting build into the core/platform.
Was going to buy the smileys plug in and get my dev to fix it to work the way i want, but if you're already part way through development with it, i'd be happy to buy it as is and do the rest (and give you the working version)
If you're not interested, that's ok. Just asking :)

Same story for me. I also found another platform. I currently own several oxwall sites for my clients but I have a bad feeling somehow about oxwall's future. The software and its community could be great if some changes are done by the management. With the change (without notification) of the plugins in the store, Oxwall again doesn't seem to understand what the community really needs. I cant except that neither my clients .. so then I should make my decision..

Oxwall team is doing a good job. The biggest problem is some third-party developers, who use the community as an easy "money generator". If the team will delete the non-functional and not updated plugins, it will be OK. At the same time, the 3rd party developers must start to cooperate and work as a team. (top sellers themes with top seller plugins). I think that over time it will be OK. Oxwall is still in development with LTS, (long term support).

Oxwall needs to stop being so closed minded with obvious ideas such as ssl rewrites and actually work with the community instead of against us.
The sooner they stop acting like kids with toys they don't want to share and act more like an innovative community platform working to grow through its communities help and ideas, the sooner EVERYONE will have a better time.
I'm a big fan of oxwall but constantly feel like I'm working against the grain just for them to fix things that are expected to work normal in the first place.
