# Events Calendar Pro 5.1.2

Hey friends! Events Calendar Pro 5.1.2 features a change that allows custom fields from the Additional Fields feature that are added with the Block Editor to be properly saved and displayed as expected. This is a minor release that should be smooth sailing when updating. That said, it’s always a good idea to [backup](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-site-backups/) your site and test changes in a [development environment](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-staging-site/) before installing this on your live site, as you would with any other WordPress update. Here are the detailed changes included in this release:

- **Fix** – [Additional Fields](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/custom-fields/) are now properly saving and displayed as expected when added with the block editor.
- **Language** – 0 new strings added, 1 updated, 0 fuzzied, and 0 obsoleted
