I have used several forum components/bridges and stand alones next to my joomla site for better than a year now. We have about 1000 members in our online gaming community. After jumping ship from JB/FB to SMF (thanks to a converter) we have a nice forum, but it requires members login twice... so our forums don't get the traffic they used to.

Now, Agora has come along at just the right time... although the Dev "team" is rather small... things are getting done at blazing speed over at JoomlaMe and the Agora forum component is about ready to rock!

This one doesn't require a bridge, the groups work, the user ban works, the templates are a plenty and the Dev team is there day in and day out to answer questions and work on bug reports.

One of the biggest advantages to Agora is it's blazing fast speed... it's not a resource hog and doesn't require a dedicated server to run it in a joomla install.

I look forward to making the switch to Agora and will report back in a few months on how this one's coming along.

Congrats on the job well done so far Agora Forums, and looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with in the very near future!

This thing rocks!!! I used the standard information in the backend and added the mosmap tag to an article and it's done! Awesome work on this Plugin that Rocks like a Component!!!

I love the versatility of the Sobi2 Component, and the download plugin was just what I needed to get my files in order!

Awesome work to add to the fine sobi collection.

Best of all... ITS FREE as in Beer!!!

But it's definitely a worthy project for my donation!

Support on the forum is second to none as well with a great user community willing to share their experience.

Great work on this! I have been a huge fan of the FCK Editor for over a year now, and have several Joomla sites running it.

Just glad someone has stepped up to release an excellent working version.

I tested this on a subfolder site that made the 'other' FCK editor none too happy. I had to search the joomla forums to refresh my memory of what file needed tweaking to get the old one to work...

But not with Joomla FCK 2!!! GREAT JOB!

Also the added parameters in the plugin admin area are excellent and much needed!

Again AWESOME JOB! And thanks!

Now off to install this on 12 more sites!

My customers will be pleased!

This bot does NOT use CSS to resize in your browser, it actually creates a new thumbnail to size you manually set when creating the article and saves it with the watermark on it to view the larger file in a popup lightbox.

Install it, publish it and forget it. It's automatic and perfect for adding single thumbs that have a cool lightbox effect to your content.

Great Job and THANKS!
