Today along with Grav 0.9.13 being released, we have made several updates to five of our plugins that could cause your site to break. If you use Breadcrumbs, GitHub, Pagination, SnipCart or TaxonomyList plugins on your Grav site, you need to read this!

If you have been following us on Twitter you will know that along with the general development and improvement of Grav, we have been hard at work on an GUI Admin plugin. We have tweeted several screenshots from our initial design phase and also screenshots of the initial development. Things have been moving along really well and although we are not quite ready to release the plugin into the wild we are about 90% complete.

In this blog post we have provided a veritable slew of screenshots so you can see how things are progressing:

Along with our new 0.9.0 release, we have also released three new plugins. The Archives plugin is used for displaying a list of months that can filter pages based on taxonomy. The GitHub plugin provides an easy way to access the GitHub API from Grav, either directly in plugins or in Twig templates. TwigCache is a plugin for advanced users that are trying to include slow requests or processing in their Twig template output.

When we planned to create a simple shop skeleton to provide a demonstration of Grav being used to display products in categories, we came across a really interesting hosted shopping cart solution called SnipCart that integrates into your site with a few lines of JavaScript, CSS and some buy buttons.

In order to showcase what can be done with Grav and how easy it all is, we created a simple, yet rather elegant Grav plugin that wraps SnipCart and integrates easily with Grav.
