Family News
Phew, what a crazy month this has been for us! Some of you are aware of the server outage and related issues we faced. It was the worst experience I ever had as a business owner. We think it was caused by a plugin error which took down our site, and then the status checks on customer plugins kept trying to find the server and crashed it. That won’t happen again due to the fixes we released.
And that was just part of the craziness. We have seen the weather go from 72 degrees to snowing and white the next day, multiple times. I don’t ever remember such a drastic change in weather like we had this month. And we’re all fighting colds, hoping to be over it by the time the baby arrives any day now!
Along with a lot of other things happening here in our personal lives, helping people, teaching, getting ready for the baby, recording podcasts. Tiring, but all good and worthwhile.

Product News
We released two major plugin updates this month. We are also working on other existing plugins and several new modules. In April, we hope to release another “helper” plugin that is super awesome and does something no one else has achieved. I fully expect it to release soon.
Divi Events Calendar
We released a big feature update to version 2.3 on March 9th with the usual long list of features. This update includes a long list of helpful features and improvements for selecting which events show in the Events Feed and Events Calendar modules, support and features for the new canceled and postponed event status, dynamic support and links for venues and organizes (TEC Pro only), new filter options, a new Event Subscribe module, and much more! Be sure to watch the video and read the whole post to get familiar with everything new. We are always actively working on this plugin full time and excited for what is coming in every big update.
Divi Contact Form Helper
We released a huge feature update to version 1.1 on March 26. Check out the release post/video to see all the new features! New field label, placeholder, and description settings, support for merge tags in the subject line, CC and BCC email addresses, new referrer URL merge tag, checkbox and radio button column layout options, textarea validation, new allowed file types, and more! We already have so many settings, and our future development list is just as long! Version 1.2 is already well under way with some super helpful features.
