 * Hi Jordy,
 * Thanks for the AMAZING plugins that you create and DOUBLE THANKS for offering
   a free version 😉 I find it mind boggling how someone can spend so much time 
   creating such amazing plugins and then give it away for free… but anyway- I use
   DIVI on my main site and I want to install 2 of your plugins (PRO versions) but
   I know DIVI can be a bit “funny” when it comes to using third party stuff so 
   before I go ahead and purchase, I just want to make sure itll be ok (or rather,
   hear if there are any known issues).
 * Thanks again

 * Hi 🙂
 * That’s very nice of you! Thank you 🙂 I worked on free plugins for years, because
   I have time and because I am also a geek and a user of my own plugins (I use 
   all of them – which is one of the reasons why I am working hard on those). And
   for 3 years, I have been added wanted features (so the ones I develop for users,
   not for me) in the Pro versions, and it’s a win-win as it helps me maintain the
   Free versions as well.
 * About DIVI, I am using it on one of my websites, and the plugin is tested with
   it. However, it can be used in so many ways that I think there could be potential
   issues. If you encounter any, please contact me 🙂
 * … and thanks a lot for the review!

 * Wow thanks for the quick response, I was actually expecting to wait at least 
   a day or 2 so big thumbs up for that 😉
    Im a bit of a newbie (pretty fluint 
   in my movements around wordpress and DIVI but NOTHING when it comes to backend
   coding stuff) so I have done a full backup using Updraft and I will install your
   plugin after your next reply… My question: Will me doing a full backup keep me
   safe from tragedy? hehe. What I mean is, lets say that by some chance (im sure
   itll be smooth as it has been on other themes that I have used) it breaks the
   site- im safe because I have a full backup…right? Apologies for the simple question
   but Im terribly nervous as I am finally (after 4 years of self taught everything)
   happy with my site and I would be devastated if it “broke” 🙂 I know you cant
   guarantee anything and I would never hold you accountable but just wanted to 
   ask, before I install 😉

 * To be honest, the safest way to do this is to have a production environment and
   a staging environment. When you install new plugins or start a big cleaning process,
   it’s better to copy the production environment to a staging environment, apply
   everything on the staging, and when everything is perfectly fine, switch that
   environment to production. This is the way to do it 🙂
 * You can use a backup plugin, but you need to make sure that it actually works.
 * You can also do the cleaning slowly, start the scan, analyze the results, delete
   the files by little batch and test your website.
