Everywhere you see “that’s WordPress, our plugin isn’t responsible for that”. That’d be like buying a car and your brakes don’t work. Take it back to the dealer and they say “That’s a Brembo problem not ours”. Maybe you’re reading that and thinking “well that’s dumb”… exactly. It’s stupid right? Sure maybe it’s a manufacturing…

Unicorn company, founder exits with $100 million dollars, startup comes from nowhere and dominates the market. No doubt you’ve heard all the stories and read all the articles and maybe you’re sitting there thinking “Well why can’t I create an overnight success?”.
