    Heads up, the devs just told me that the AppSumo lifetime deal is about to end... (in about a day).

    Now we need to upvote this "roadmap suggestion" that I submitted to ZionBuilder. This morning the dev team moved the suggestion from Under Consideration to the "Backlog" list... so that is good news that they are going to do it at some point. But if more people "vote" this suggestion, it has a better chance of getting included quicker.

    Gutenberg has a LONG way to go before it can replace most page builders. Things that would have to be completed in Gutenberg before any page builder should be fearful are:

    1. Much easier templating system
    2. Better control over element/module attributes
    3. Layouts and grids need massive work on Gutenberg
    4. A COMPLETE REWRITE OF HOW GUTENBERG SAVES CONTENT IN THE DATABASE... saving "layout" comments in the WordPress database post table is just plain stupid and until that is changed, Gutenberg will never replace page builders.

    YUP... I love it after spending time over the weekend. Love it so much that I've adjusted Tuesday's webinar to look specifically at Zion Builder. Wait till you all see the speed of Zion Builder.

    I'll look into Zion Builder and see if we can add it to the list.

    You can use the following types of PHP instructions in GutenLogic:

    • Use regular WordPress Conditional Tags
      • You can use the ! exclamation point to "reverse" the logic statement. !is_front_page() returns true when the visitor is NOT on the frontpage.
      • You can combine conditions using the || (pipes) for an OR statement that returns true if EITHER statement #1 or Statement #2 is true.
      • You can combine with more specific condition using the && (double ampersand) to return true if BOTH statement #1 and statement #2 are true.
      • And all the traditional WordPress conditional tags work like is_home(), is_page(array(3,6,7)), is_user_logged_in()
    • You can also evaluate a statement to check a server-level condition like checking to see if a visitor is coming from duckduckgo.com using the code strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'], "duckduckgo.com")!=false
    • You could even go as far as returning true if a page is a "child" of a certain post ID using code global $post; return (in_array(234,get_post_ancestors($post)));

    So, as you can see, the capabilities of the GutenLogic is extensive if you are willing to think through the power it opens.

    Who is this plugin for?

    If you rely on straight WordPress Conditional Tags (Conditional Tags Codex) and were missing the option of using this method of "control" in the Gutenberg/Block Editor.

    I'm pretty sure this is simply an "upsell" attempt. The term "FULL" over within Cloudflare's SSL modes doesn't mean 'beyond capacity', but an identifying method of the different modes (Flexible / Full / Strict / Off). And each of those dictates how Cloudflare treats incoming URL requests (ie turning HTTP into HTTPS or rejecting anything not HTTPS or a variation.

    The push to go "Strict" is a way for them to sell you a standalone SSL certificate.

    Now... its also possible (small chance) that your previous SSL certificate has expired and the "Full" SSL Mode actually doesn't verify if the used certificate is valid or expired.

    Sounds like it will be a good idea to move forward with the series I talked about here. https://wpstudio.com/forums/topic/im-curious-if-the-following-series-is-of-interest-to-members/

    Invited you to the repo... Its a "new" / transferred repo. You can see the notes on the issue ticket on why these are currently "clean" repos that got restarted.

    Yes, I'll need to see the Pages/URLs to see if I can figure out what is going on. You can also send those directly to me if your site isn't fully live yet at benjamin@wpstudio.com. I have an idea why this is happening, but without seeing the page I can't say if the media query is drawing the right markup or not.

    Fixed, not sure what happened during the server upgrade... but its been fixed after I resaved the post type.

    I've got a mini-update coming out for Approval Studio that adds in some optimization for the approval process and also adds a documentation section in the Settings area. I did this because it turns out if you do not have an SMTP system setup for your WordPress sites, any emails can be severely delayed or even never sent. So, by including a video and documentation on how to set up an SMTP connection for a WordPress site, it should solve most of the deliverability issues that some experience with Approval Studio.

    If you want to "test" the beta-release of Approval Studio v1.1 prior to the official release on Monday, you can download the plugin directly here.

    Part of the reason why I'm not releasing the plugin this evening is that I want to finish up some of the documentation for the plugin and push out the release at the same time the documentation is ready.
