Following on from our last '5 Must-Have e107 Plugins', we have compiled another list of the top five e107 plugins that you shouldn't be without. As before we have made the choice from non-core, free plugins only and this is by no means a definitive list, just our opinion. Please feel free to post your own comments and suggest your top plugins.

After a long wait, the eagerly anticipated arrival of digital downloads to the popular Easyshop plugin means we have installed it as our Premium Theme Shop!

Easyshop v1.4 has now been installed on Xen Themes and has replaced our previous shop which had a few problems as some of you will know. One of the main differences is back-end. Easyshop is just what it says.... easy! Compared to our previous store Easyshop has a far superior admin area and the options are boundless.

So a big thumbs up to NLStart in making Easyshop the best e-commerce solution for e107 and whats more.... it's free!

Please report any problems using the shop, it's still early days so there may be a few teething problems.

Use CSS and div tags to perfectly position text to create an image text wrap effect.

Getting text to fit the contours of an image is not a simple one-element action.

A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an image that follows you from site to site appearing beside your name when you do things. Avatars help identify your posts on blogs and web forums, so why not on any site?

We have implemented a hack to support gravatars on Xen Themes. The original hack was posted by aSeptik on e107.org and was slightly modified by Reshadat, so a big thanks to them! It works great and is in use in our comments areas without a problem.

This hack changes 3 core files, so make sure you make the appropriate backups before you start! This has only been tested on e107 v0.7.15 as far as I know.
