The Lowdown:
From time to time you will need to change the post type of a post and this plugins help solve that issue. It works great going from custom post types to regular post or pages. The useful thing I found on this one was during a project where there was allot of custom post types from the theme and we are switching themes and you will usually loose that information. This works great and you may loose some custom fields but you get most if not all of it to use in your new build.

The Lowdown:
This is a great extension for adding additional functionality to Elementor. If you use the sticky header in elementor then you know that is has limitations. This plugin expands on that and allows things such as clear header that fills with colour as it scrolls and the shrinking header and more check this one out to help with your next build.

ClassicPress Options

ClassicPress is a fast growing fork of WordPress that is starting to come into its own. ClassicPress is focused on Business Websites runs fast and is looking pretty good. There are a few plugins specifically for ClassicPress and all plugins for WordPress 4.9.9 work well on it. I do believe it has a future.

One thing I am looking forward to in the ClassicPress World is the expansion of the number of ClassicPress specific plugins and their own repository. Currently there are not a lot of ClassicPress specific plugins but I do know it is going to grow and I'll have to expand this segment then. Who knows, it could take over the whole show.

This week for ClassicPress I have:
