Reflection Catcher Cycles Easy way

Support Compositing and Post Processing

Hi guys,

I looked through multiple solutions regarding reflection catcher in Cycles, but none of them are working or it takes 30 min to setup.

I only want to render an object on a plane with reflections and shadows on a plane but plane being transparent .

So I can use any background later, Is there an easy way to do it?

Thank you

I’m also interested - found a tut, but certainly not easy. https://www.google.com/search?q=blender+2.8+reflection+catcher&rlz=1C1FMRB_enZA691ZA691&oq=blender+2.8+reflection+catcher&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i64.12427j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#kpvalbx=_3w-gXqDiEeee1fAP4s6ikAM24

Please post if you find a simpler way. Surely rendering out a reflection pass would do it, but I can’t the settings.
