The plugin works great, some things to note though: If you disable the welcome message in your dashboard, the created dashboard disappears (which makes sense, since it replaces the default welcome message from wordpress) but still important to keep in mind. Using global colors/custom set colors and global fonts/custom set fonts will not work, you have to use hex colors and set the typography manually for the styles to work. When the dashboards loads, images and text appear distorted at first. We "fixed" that in our case using a fade-in animation from animista.net All in all pretty good plugin after adding some tweaks to the animation and styling of the dashboard.

I used this plugin well in previous versions of WordPress, but in version 5.9 of WordPress this plugin does not work

I've used this plugin for a long time, and it never did really work properly, but the few problems weren't an issue. Now, however, I've added the plugin to my latest client site and the styling is all over the place. While I realise this is a free plugin, but if the styles don't work in the actual dashboard, then it's not really worth having. On the up side, if you're only providing text/images and no buttons, it's ok. Honestly, I'd pay a proper license for this if it worked, but as it stands I'm afraid I will have to delete it from the sites.

I've used this plugin for a couple of years and found it to be reliable and flawless. Perhaps the recent negative reviews are indicative of people with too-high expectations or a desire to take this plugin beyond its capabilities. If you don't want to have to customize the dashboard menus, then this plugin will provide all of the necessary functionality to create and embed an Elementor template page that will do most anything that such a page can do.

You spend some time and create a beautiful dashboard in Elementor, then you go to your WordPress dashboard set the new template as Dashboard only to find out that all the styling work you had done was for nothing, the plugin simply doesn't load the Elemntor styling for the template. Some have addressed this issue in the support forum 9 months ago and ZERO response from the developer nor has the issue been fixed.
