Marketplace API Round-up
What’s an “API”? A Pink Igloo? A Pig Itching? Not quite.
The Marketplace’s target="_blank" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_programming_interface">Application Programming Interface (API) allows the development of applications with access to a range of data from all the marketplaces such as the most popular and latest files. More sensitive data such as your account balance, recent sales, and monthly statements can also be accessed securely using your individual API key!
So what? I’m a designer – why should I be interested in geeky code interface stuff? Well, using the API you can develop apps/sites for your mobile, your desktop, or even your blog. Did I mention you can even design and style your applications however you want? Now that’s pretty cool, right?!
Working with the New “Envato Marketplace Items” WordPress Plugin
Just a few days ago, Envato’s very own WordPress ninja, Derek Herman, released a new “Envato Marketplace Items” plugin for WordPress. Now, with only a few minutes worth of work, you can display your recent files, popular files, and even files according to a specific category on your site. Not only that, but you can additionally attach your referral id to each item and earn 30% of your referred user’s first deposit!
In only a few steps, I’ll show you exactly how to implement this plugin into your own project.
