RSGallery2 Gallery List Module v0.7.5

Serving 4259 extensions to the community

This extension was developed out of a need on one of my sites for a quick, text-only (no thumbnails) list of RSGallery2 galleries. As it is my first attempt at writing a module, it is very basic. This version includes the following module parameters, which are set in the module settings in the back-end:

* Number of galleries to display in the list * Length of gallery description to display
* Sort order - users can select to show galleries in date order (ascending or descending), by popularity (based on hits), or by the order set in the gallery list in the component back-end
* Show a link to all galleries? User can define whether or not to show a link below the gallery list to view the entire gallery (component view)
* User can define the text to show for the above-mentioned link

Please note that right now this module will only show the names of parent galleries, not child galleries. If a user selects the parent gallery from the list, they will be taken to the page showing each child gallery under that parent. This module has been tested with RSGallery2 version 1.14.x Although registration is not required to download the module, doing so will ensure you can be contacted as new versions are published. Your information will NEVER be distributed, nor will it be used to sell additional products or services from Momentis Technology or any other entity.

Works great!

Module is great! It was just what I was looking for and it made a menu out of my galleries so easily for me! I was new to joomla and rsgallery when I started, so I had needed support. The support was awesome! Very quick to respond and unbelievably helpful!!!!

Simple and to the Point
