With three years of service now under their collective belts, I take a look at the Easy Digital Downloads plugin on the Pagely blog to see how it can help you sell digital products from your WordPress website.

Also on the Pagely blog, I take a look at Give, a free plugin which allows you to accept donations on your WordPress website, and keep all of the proceeds. This WordPress donations plugin features a great design to suit the most creative of websites.

Over on the Colorlib blog, I review the WPJobBoard plugin. This tool includes everything you need to set up your own job board, or list vacancies on an existing WordPress website. WPJobBoard even includes a suitable theme to help you get up and running as quickly as possible.

WPMU DEV recently released a new front end page builder tool for WordPress. You can check out my Upfront review over on the PremiumWP blog. Its early days for Upfront, but could it be the future of WordPress?

From elsewhere in the world of WordPress, the distributed team of Automatticians share their work spaces. While, the CodeinWP team share their latest revenue report.

And on a slightly less related note: employ the holy trinity of productivity tips to get more done.

If you are looking for a way to promote your most popular posts more effectively, the WordPress Popular Posts Widget plugin that I reviewed on the Pagely blog, might be something you want to check out. Over at Pagely, I also took the Code Snippets plugin for a test-drive. Its a great way to safely add code to your theme’s functions.php file, without editing the file directly yourself.

As part of the series for new WordPress users I’m writing on the Theme-Fusion blog, I added a post on creating the essential pages that all WordPress websites should probably have.
