No. This plugin is as simple as pagination is disabled (plugin activated) or pagination
is enabled (plugin is deactivated).

My client has a complex online store and has over 100 product categories, sub-categories,
etc. As long as I had 50 or less, the hierarchy of the cats/sub-cats displayed just
fine when I'd create a menu from the Product Categories option; more than 50 and
the menu tree would break and show all of those cats/sub-cats as individual, un-
nested items. This plugin fixes that issue. Can't thank the developer enough!
