    Hey everyone! We’ve been hard at work for the past month on our latest release, and finally have a finished product to share with you all: as of today, the 3.6 updates for our entire plugin suite have been deployed. While not as major an update as March’s 3.5 build, there is still a lot changed here — enough that you should definitely read our blog post covering things to be aware of before you hit “Update.”

    There are 3.6 updates for all of the following plugins:

    • The Events Calendar
    • Events Calendar PRO
    • Community Events
    • Facebook Events
    • Eventbrite Tickets
    • WooCommerce Tickets
    • EDD Tickets
    • WPEC Tickets
    • Shopp Tickets
    • Filter Bar

    A detailed changelog for each plugin is below.
