Happy October, everyone! The baseball regular season has ended and hopefully your favorite team is in the playoffs. Mine is.
It’s been a busy week around the ExpressionEngine world, for various reasons. One thing that hasn’t changed is what the community is doing day in and day out. We post about all sorts of stuff throughout the week but let’s catch up on some other things that happened this week.
Lots of add-on updates available, so let’s roll with those and other news.

Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favourite justification appeared to be on the internet the easiest thing to
remember of. I say to you, I certainly get irked while people
consider issues that they just don’t recognise about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and outlined out the entire thing with no need side-effects , folks could take a signal. Will probably be again to get more. Thanks
