Release
Notes

December 12, 2018

  • 2.4.7

  • 6.4.6

  • 3.4.6

Did you know that when you inspect a Button element in advanced mode there are 130 individual data points that can be modified? The Headline has 90 and a few of the more feature rich elements have over 200. We spread these out over many different controls and group them into sections to make the elements as approachable as possible for the level of customization possible. I'm sure you've noticed there is a bit of delay when you want to inspect a different element or switch the group of controls you're working with.

We've taken some time between major update cycles to do a maintenance release to address this key performance issue and a handful of other bug fixes. The Inspector you use in the builders has been entirely rewritten in React and is now much faster. There is a noticible speed improvement when you switch control groups or inspect new elements. And just wait until you try the new icon pickerit now opens instantaneously.

Another thing we tackled with this update is rounding out a few issues after the WordPress 5.0 release. You will now be able to edit the post title and access post attributes without needing to click the Edit with WordPress button.

We wish we had some shiny new features to share with you now, but we are very exicted about the next major release that is already underway. We expect it to blow your socks off (Hint: V2 Grid and dynamic content)!
