What is the Envato Product Storefront?

Simply put, it’s a premium WordPress plugin that gives you an easy way to build and display a great looking Envato marketplace showcases. Using the Envato API , it imports, caches and displays detailed product information on your site. The plugin also captures impressions and clicks on each of the products, displaying them in fancy jQuery charts so you can quickly keep track of what’s popular and what’s not.

Email to SMS is an object-oriented PHP library for sending text messages using the email-to-SMS gateways that carriers provide.

It’s important to understand that Email to SMS is a library, not an application, which means that it doesn’t do anything on its own. Instead, it works as a third-party component for your existing application or website, allowing you to send text messages from your code.

Sending messages with Email to SMS is free, but be aware of a few drawbacks compared to paid services like Clickatell, Tropo, and Twilio. Messages you send will come from your email address, not your phone number. You may also be limited to less than 160 characters, depending on the carrier.

Although Email to SMS was created for PHP 5 .3+ since it makes use of namespaces, a special version of the library for older versions of PHP is also included that works exactly the same; the only real difference is the class names and the lack of namespace use in the latter version. Documentation is included for both versions.

Important: I obviously don’t have a phone on every carrier to test with, so if you experience any problems, please send me an email via my profile page (or leave a comment here, if you would prefer) to explain exactly what isn’t working, rather than just leaving a bad rating or an angry comment. I will make every effort to help you and provide a fix if there’s a problem with the library.

Special Features

• Send images (and potentially other files) as attachments to MMS messages
• Send text messages to multiple recipients at once
