nopCommerce 4.90.7 Plugin Compatibility Explained
This is the part store owners care about the most, so let's keep it simple.
nopCommerce's small updates follow a straight line, one version after another: 4.90.0 → 4.90.1 → 4.90.2 → and so on, all the way to 4.90.7.

nopCommerce 4.90.7
nopCommerce has confirmed that 4.90.7 works fine with everything from 4.90.0 to 4.90.6. In plain words: any plugin or theme made for nopCommerce 4.90 will still work on 4.90.7.
What this means for you as a store owner:
You don't have to rebuild or replace your existing plugins.
You won't need to chase down plugin updates every time a small version comes out.
This kind of small upgrade is far easier and safer than a big version jump (like going from 4.80 to 4.90), which usually does break things.
One honest note: "compatible" here means nopCommerce's own platform plays nicely across these versions. It doesn't mean every single plugin from every developer is guaranteed to work perfectly, especially older or heavily customized ones. So test your plugins before you upgrade your live store — better a few minutes of checking than an unexpected surprise.
Are nopCommerce 4.90 Themes Compatible with 4.90.7?
Yes. Your theme will keep working, the same way your plugins do. Whatever storefront design you're currently using for nopCommerce 4.90 doesn't need to be touched or rebuilt.
That said, it's smart to click through your site after updating, just to be sure everything looks right. Check:
Homepage
Category pages
Product pages
Cart
Checkout
Customer account pages
Search
Custom widgets
Any theme-specific functionality (custom sliders, mega menu styling, RTL layouts, and similar customizations)
A small update like this shouldn't break your theme. But it takes only a few minutes to check these pages, and it saves you from customers noticing a problem before you do.
Should You Upgrade to nopCommerce 4.90.7?
If your store already runs on any 4.90 version, upgrading is a safe, sensible move. You get the latest bug fixes, and nothing about your plugins or theme needs to change.
Before you upgrade, do this:
Take a backup of your database and your files, always. No skipping this step.
Skim the official release notes to see what exactly got fixed.
Check your custom code, especially anything you've built or modified yourself.
Test your plugins and theme on a test site first, not directly on your live store.
Test payment and shipping, since problems here directly hit your sales.
Walk through checkout yourself, start to finish.
Double-check the database after running the upgrade.
Use a staging site if you have one. Never experiment on your live store.

How to Download nopCommerce 4.90.7
You can download it from two official places:
nopCommerce website the main download page.
GitHub releases page where developers usually go.
On GitHub, you'll see a few different packages depending on what you need:
Source code package for developers who want to customize nopCommerce (needs Visual Studio).
Windows x64 / x86 packages ready-to-deploy builds, no coding needed.
Linux x64 package same idea, for Linux servers.
The upgrade scripts package is the one you need if you're upgrading an existing store rather than installing fresh.

Custom controllers
Event consumers
Widget zones
Theme rendering
API integrations

Shipping integrations
Scheduled tasks
Admin functionality
Logs
