Hi there,

Welcome to the 37th issue of The Pier. This week the Elementor team announced Elementor Copilot, your new AI design companion in Early Access. Think of it as your smart personal assistant for building WordPress sites, offering layout suggestions that combine your personal expertise with industry best practices. It’s constantly learning from your experience and feedback to give you even better recommendations.

We would also like to welcome Maileroo to The Port.

Here is a selection of the latest and greatest blog posts we published this week on Ahoi.dev. You will also find some interesting industry news, the latest directory listings on The Port, job openings, and deals. Enjoy!

🤙 New WP All Import Add-ons

Joe and Louis from WP All Import have just announced the long-awaited release of new import and export add-ons for Meta Box and JetEngine, currently in beta. They are included in the Import + Export Pro package which costs $399 for a lifetime license. They will soon be switching to an annual pricing model.

For a limited time, existing customers can upgrade to this package by simply paying the difference between what they’ve already paid and the retail price.
