So I thought it&#8217;s a good idea to sit down at the end <meta charset=\"utf-8\"\/>of each month, pause for a tiny bit  and reflect on all the things we have accomplished and done in the previous weeks. Otherwise it feels as if we didn&#8217;t accomplish much, which is probably not true. We just forget to halt for a moment and reflect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"pt__9 wp-block-heading\">Our ElmaStudio Redesign<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of June, we decided to finally redesign our ElmaStudio website and of course we want to use our <a href=\"https:\/\/ainoblocks.io\/\">Aino theme<\/a> for our new design. So we decided have the redesign ready by the end of the month. It ended up to be July 5th but still, we reached our goal. There are still many details to improve and we have a new list of enhancements and bug fixes for our Aino theme and block plugin, but it was worth it to make the switch. It&#8217;s always so difficult to get your own website improved, if you are already working on so many things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"pt__9 wp-block-heading\">WooCommerce support for Aino<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest hurdle that prevented our move to the Aino theme was the missing WooCommerce support. We planned to use <meta charset=\"utf-8\"\/><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/woo-gutenberg-products-block\/\">WooCommerce Blocks<\/a> and prepare the blocks for Aino. It was a bit more complicated than expected but we are happy to report that Aino will have the first version of WooCommerce support within this week. I&#8217;m preparing a theme update right now. Unfortunately, not all WooCommerce shop elements are block-based yet and some options in the plugin are still limited. But it&#8217;s working and we are generally pretty happy with the result.<br \/>I will write a new post on the <a href=\"https:\/\/ainoblocks.io\/blog\/\">Aino blog<\/a> as soon as our update is released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the next weeks, we plan to dig deeper into eCommerce support for Aino and I will also write a post about all the things we learned from our website redesign. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"pt__9 wp-block-heading\">Zoom Meetup Stuttgart<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>At the beginning of the month, we joined the WordPress meetup Stuttgart (our old home town) for a Full Site Editing Q&amp;A session. It was 5am here in New Zealand and we were still a bit sleepy. I hope no one noticed. The Zoom session is available on WordPress.tv and I will include it here even though it&#8217;s in German language. I also include the slides we prepared for the talk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-wordpress-tv wp-block-embed-wordpress-tv wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"VideoPress Video Player\" aria-label='VideoPress Video Player' width='500' height='281' src='https:\/\/video.wordpress.com\/embed\/CWkdCDit?hd=1&amp;cover=1' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen allow='clipboard-write'><\/iframe><script src='https:\/\/v0.wordpress.com\/js\/next\/videopress-iframe.js?m=1739540970'><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\"\/>Our Full Site Editing introduction slides (in German language):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-speaker-deck wp-block-embed-speaker-deck\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"WordPress Full Site Editing (FSE) Einf\u00fchrung\" id=\"talk_frame_749074\" class=\"speakerdeck-iframe\" src=\"\/\/speakerdeck.com\/player\/492569559b71414b87fc6b4c1017cdcd\" width=\"500\" height=\"312\" style=\"aspect-ratio:500\/312; border:0; padding:0; margin:0; background:transparent;\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"pt__9 wp-block-heading\">What else happened?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>All in all, June was a pretty quiet month with lots of work. Since it&#8217;s winter here right now, it&#8217;s good weather to get some work done. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We had an appointment in Auckland so we went down for a little day trip, enjoyed some yummy vegan treats from our favourite Tart Bakery and got some bubble tea, a must-have for Ellen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1018\" height=\"677\" src=\"https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland.jpg\" alt=\"Ellen am Hafen in Auckland\" class=\"wp-image-284246\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland.jpg 1018w, https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland-720x479.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.elmastudio.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ellen-in-auckland-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1018px) 100vw, 1018px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ellen and a big ship at the Auckland harbour.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>One more highlight for our home office was a standing desk we ordered from a small New Zealand company.
