Pier #47 – ZoloBlocks Pro, Butter, Uxcel, HeySummit, Pressable & ShortPixel
Hi there,
Welcome to the 47th issue of The Pier. This week Greenshift has added Visibility by User Meta and Visibility by Purchased Product to its Query add-on, which is useful for membership sites, for example. With the Repeater Builder, you can now also create custom templates based on User Query, Taxonomy Query, Comment Query, Transients and Site Options.
Around the time of the first public beta release of version 2.0, Breakdance will increase prices for new customers. However, existing customers will be grandfathered into their current plans indefinitely.
Also, ZoloBlocks Pro has been launched with a nice early bird discount, which will be automatically applied to your cart.
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!
🤙 YITH Ajax Product Filter 5.0
YITH Ajax Product Filter 5.0 for WooCommerce has added lazy load filters to improve initial page loading, an option to paginate terms and conditions, and variation filtering to display variable products that have at least one variation that matches the filters. If only one variant matches the selection, that specific variant is displayed with its own image, link, price and add to cart button.
