Hey everyone, Its been few weeks since we pushed a big update and there are reasons for it. I have so man points to cover this week!
If you are looking for Call To Action in AMP then please see this post.
So, here is what we are up to!
Our lead developer, Mohammed, is still recovering from a health problem which is one of the reasons why we became slow in pushing major updates. We were still pushing important updates constantly every week but nothing in terms of advancements. He has still not recovered fully but has started to work just a few hours a day based on his comfortability. Please Pray for his recovery so that he can come back in full action!
Also, We hit 30,000 active users just a few days ago!!! Which is a huge deal for us! We started with a humble thought of helping users with their AMP related problem which quickly grew into a big community. I would like to personally thank each and every person who has downloaded and installed this plugin.
Coming over to me, Two weeks ago, I got involved in an accident which resulted in me not working for more than a week. I can’t use my left hand for typing for next two weeks. and Yes! I am literally typing with one hand.
A huge thumbs up to our team who took care of the action behind the scenes in these tough times. We couldn’t have done without them.
Coming to the point, this update is our usual one, with fixes, improvements, and advancements.

Hi Ahmed,
Thank you for such a great plugin. Was looking for my site.
I pray for speedy recovery for both of you.
Thank you! And best wishes to Mohammed
Great Plugin, thank you guys so much.
Thank you boys! this i a very very good plugin!!
Hi guys – you’re doing an awesome job with this plugin! WELL DONE! I hope the various health issues within your team get better and that you are all okay.
I had one question – you’ve added a “Call now” button to Design 3 in this release. Is there any specific reason for this? The thing I suggest (most desirable) would be a custom, sticky call-to-action within Design 3. This way the action always stays there as someone browses the article and it can be whatever we like – not just calling.
Would you consider adding a STRONG and loud single CTA button as an option for Design 3 – since the CTA is the biggest thing lacking in design 3 imo.
Your help is truly appreciated! We’re very happy with your plugin at https://tallyfy.com 🙂
I am dumb and didn’t find the option to turn off AMP on all pages. Where is it?
I cant waiting for final version of this plugin. 🙂
I love the latest version of this plugin. And even it’s great on its free version. It’s now independent not requiring Automattic AMP for WP plugin anymore.
Keep up on a good job guys. Thanks
