With CustomContent and DirectPHP, I really think there's nothing I can't do with a Joomla! site. I can't even imagine a Joomla! without it!! Thanks for this extension!

Indeed, this extends the custom html module in a simple and *very* useful way. Makes it a breeze to extend the layout of a page by using modules and the article manager.

Yes, this functionality should standard with joomla. Definitely needs to be part of the core in some form.

Squash a few bugs, bring it out of beta and you've got a 5-star module for sure.

I wish people would refrain from posting reviews until they understood the nuances of an add-on. This module makes up for the fact that Joomla decided to stop plugins running on modules. It also allows you to centralise custom HTML which makes it easier for users (esp non-tech ones) to manage their sites. Well done and bravo...

One nuance:
helper.php Line 36
$results = $dispatcher->trigger('onPrepareContent', array (& $item, & $params, NULL ));

Added the NULL to prevent warnings about missing 3rd parameter...

By the way if you want plugins to run on Section an category descriptions check out this post: http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=469&t=250173

Unlike the custom HTML module, this module is actually assigned articles. This is great for me cause it allows the ability to include content plugins (i.e. pagebreaks, etc) and keep all my stuff organized in Articles as opposed to switching to the module config.

This module is absolutely brilliant. USed in conjunction with DirectPHP it means that you can include custom PHP code in your Joomla modules, giving unrivaled flexibility to your CMS.

Every Joomla 1.5 has a Custom HTML module already installed. Go to MODULES, click on NEW and choose CUSTOM HTML. ;) I guess there is no need to install this one.

Owner's reply:
The module was developed to fill a specific need by a user who wanted to use plugins on their custom HTML modules. The core does not do this, this module does.

Isn't this just already a feature in Joomla itself. You can just make a new module and choose Custom HTML.

This extension is wonderful and easy to use.
You can even select your article from a list, so no need for entering the article ID. Excellent!!

One disadvantage is that it strips the "read more" link
Is this a bug? If not, please add the possibility to have "read more" links.

thanks God somebody thought to a small but intriguing 1.5 limitation ! It works perfectly !
Thanks

Thanks Ian,
you made my day and this will be a must for 1.0.x users switching to 1.5.x

Note: for people not aware, the HTML module (was Custom module in 1.0.x) does not fire content plugins as it used to do in 1.0.x.
By using this Custom Content module, one can load an Article containing calls to content plugins, thus overpassing this 1.5 limitation.

:)

Tested it in various module positions and it works like a charm!
That's exactly what i've been looking for.
