Is a small maintenance oriented release solely to update integrated plugins:

• Update Rev Sliderto Ver 6.4.2
• Update Element Pack to Ver 5.7.4.
• Update Champion Responsive Menu Plugin to Ver 3.1.33
• Update Super Elements Plugin to Ver 2.2.3

Both Element Pack and Super Elements have turned out many new widgets in their updates.

A reminder that with Element Pack, after updating you should visit the plugin settings and make certain you have toggled to ON all widgets as the default is only to have a basic set active. Also go to the "Other Settings" tab in Element Pack and enable the setting "Template Library (in editor)".

Given the simplicity of this update there is no discussion page. The changelog is solely the above.
