Great component, Don't use the posted version, August 20, 2006 |
There is a version in the forums that works, there are many patches posted in the forums as well.
The only major feature that is missing is bounce management.
there is an active group of users that will help you but Schmalls does not seem to be interested in keeping Anjel updated,
I have never maintained a popular project, but it seems in need of a new maintainer, (at least temporarily.)
Thanks Schmalls for the great extention, but 6.2 is in the forums just waiting for you to post.

LxMenu - DHTML menu
Good browser compatibility., May 2, 2006 |

LxMenu is not as nice as some of the propietary offerings.
Placement on the page is a little quirky. and every thing is pixil based so it can be hard to get the menu to match your template.
Browser compatability is better than any other GPL dropdown menu I have tried.
It works, which is more than you can say about a lot of drop down menu modules.

CiviCRM

CiviCRM is great for putting up a quick way of getting donations and volunteers from a website.
It does not however, integrate with the fish.
It has many oddities about how it lays things out that will give your graphic designer nightmares.
The user interface on the backend is probably an excellent candidate for an AJAX type interface similar to vtiger.
performance also seems to be a bit suspect. Your RAM usage will noticibly increase.
Any usage that is non-trivial will require a lot of thought about adding fields.
You should set up a test server with representative sample data before deploying it (unless you are sure that you have not hit a performance bottle neck when you organized your data.
I have not tested the max records, but it seems that it will hold millions, but may have issues at about 32 million.
The schedule a meeting functionality is still very primative, and probably will be a few generations before it is a challenge to outlook.
Email blasts are still a work in progress, you probably want to use anjel for email blasts at this point.
Over all, an excellent project with a bright future, Well thought out schema, the fields seem to match the real world. I'm torn between giving it two stars and five stars. it has elements that deserve each of the rankings.
joomla 1.1 has a lot of promise, as it should be possible to integrate civicrm and community builder seamlessly using that.
