Hey everyone, How are you? I spent my evenings this week trying to figure out a bug which was affecting Diversify Tech. I was so frustrated that I considered re-writing the whole application 😂. I’m glad I didn’t go that route. Even though it took me a while to figure it out, the fix was simple. I had to change the column name of one of my tables. One of the plugins I was using doesn’t like it anymore; no idea why. I’m now woefully behind on other tasks I needed to get done. I asked for advice on prioritization and I’ve got same great tips so far. If you have any tips, please do share! Cheers, -Veni
