Today we released Playa 4.3 which introduces a powerful new concept: co-parents. With it, we can do some pretty cool things, like show a list of similar entries, without a direct relationship.

We’re happy to announce that Matrix and Playa have just been updated to support Low Variables!

These were the last two stragglers, so as of today, we can say that Pixel & Tonic offers Low Variables compatibility across the board!

This has been, by far, the most popular feature request for Matrix, so this should be great news for many of you.

Many of you have requested that we offer some sort of discount on large purchases. We’ve always liked the idea, and today, we’re happy to announce that if you buy 10 or more licenses of a product at once, we’re going to knock 10% off the price!

In related news, you can now buy Assets, Matrix, and Playa from EngineHosting while you’re signing up for a new hosting account. They’ll even install them for you!

Each December, Devot:ee hosts their AcademEE Awards, where people can vote on their favorite new ExpressionEngine add-ons from the past year.

Well, the results are in, and we’re happy to announce that our very own Assets has been voted 2011’s Module of the Year!

We’ve decided it’s time to grow our two-man team a bit! For starters, we’re looking for a PHP developer to help out with add-on development and support.

It’s no secret that over the past several months, we’ve been working on a file management add-on for ExpressionEngine. And today, we’re finally ready to show it to you!

Earlier today we released Wygwam 2.2, which packs a few long-requested features, namely Pages and Structure module integration. But the best part about this update is what it represents.

Today, we’re thrilled to announce the immediate release of Playa 4, the next major version of our premiere relationship machine for ExpressionEngine.

The update packs some new UI goodness (as always), plus a ton of big under-the-hood changes that make Playa more powerful than ever!

Thanks to all of you, yesterday was our strongest sales day yet! To show our gratitude for your continued support, we’re picking up the tab at a couple upcoming ExpressionEngine get-togethers:

Ever since we opened our doors – exactly 5 months ago today! – the site has been missing a key ingredient: a place to release lightweight add-ons. Add-ons that are simple enough that I couldn’t write a whole Overview page for if I tried, and have no need for public changelogs, documentation, or support links.

So today, we take the wraps off of a new section here on P&T.com: the Dive Bar.

We’ve got four new add-ons on tap for you downloading pleasure, and more on the way. They’re all free, so check them out!
