| Pros | Free and paid ads with fee plans and credits; Moderation, flagging, Akismet and reCAPTCHA spam checks; CSV import of listings | Free, with unlimited ad blocks; Placement in content, widgets, shortcodes and the block editor; Device and country targeting, resolved from a bundled database; No visitor IP sent to external services, per the readme |
| Cons | Extra fields, regions, featured ads and most gateways are paid modules; Many legacy custom tables alongside the post type; Shortcode-based pages rather than blocks | Ad code is inserted as supplied, so the site owner must check it; Country targeting uses a bundled IP database that needs upkeep; Ad networks must be configured separately; the plugin only inserts code |
