🎄 Last update for 2024
As our team takes a well-deserved break, we’ll be back with our next update in late February 2025. While support via email will remain operational, please expect a more relaxed pace during this time. We wish you all a happy festive season and a fantastic new year!
🚨 Important notice: Cloud library upgrade
We’ve upgraded our cloud library service to a more powerful self-hosted machine. To benefit from these improvements, please update your plugin to V2.0.6.
The old cloud library server will remain active until 5 January 2024. After this date, you’ll need MaxiBlocks V2.0.6 or later to insert patterns. All other features remain unchanged—the cloud library downloads and browsing will simply come from our new, faster server. If you need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team.
🚀 Development progress: Starter sites
Starter sites have reached a working implementation, with 12 custom-designed starter sites ready to go. See the design teaser in the featured image above. Development will kick off after the holidays.
We’re still refining the starter site interface and streamlining the overall user flow. Our goal is to gather early feedback from testers in March 2025, barring any delays. Stay tuned for more updates on this upcoming feature.
