Editor's Note
- This extension requires registration to download.
*** Answering to user requests I've just add support for Twitter (3 different images), facebook and Wordpress.
*** Photoshop (PSD) image file is now available for download ***
*** NOW FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH J!1.5 - NO need for legacy mode plugin ***
*** New parameter! Now you can choose whether you want to open the link in a new window or not. ***
* Light weight * Loads fast *
The module is fully customizable (image, text and link). This way you not only can translate the text for each campaign but you can promote your own campaign!
You can have one of the corner images pre-defined or make your own... corner image that comes in the module:
* Joomla! - Suport Joomla!
* MakePovertyHistory
* Hope Unlimited for Children - Transforming the lives of street kids.
* StopGlobalWarming.org
* NineMillion.org - There are over 9 Million refuge children
* UNICEF.org - For every child: Health, Education, Equality, Protaction,...
* Komen.org - Race for the Breast Cancer Cure
* American Red Cross
* I'm Ready - American Red Cross
* The Hunger Site - Clique to give FREE Food!
* Spread FireFox
* GreenPeace
* 3 Twitter images;
* Wordpress;
* Facebook.
If you want to make your own image, I've added the Adobe Photoshop (PSD) file. I hope it will help you...

- StopGlobalWarming.org is a non-profit movement to demand our leaders freeze and reduce carbon dioxide emissions now. We are all contributors to global warming and we all need to be part of the solution.
- NineMillion.org is committed to giving refugee youth the chance to learn and play, recognizing that education and sport can improve their lives.
- UNICEF.org, is committed to child protection, survival, basic education, gender equality and development.
- Komen.org is dedicated to curing breast cancer at every stage - from the causes to the cures, to the pain and anxiety of every moment in between.
December 14 2007:
With the community Input I've added two American Red Cross Images... The "I'm Ready" is very nice for people who use Live Messenger because a percentage of the revenue with Ads goes to the Red Cross.
If you know a social cause/campaign and you want to publish it on your site, do not hesitate to send the logo to me and I will update this module for you...

Hi! :-)
Firstly, thanks for creating this ext. and thanks for supporting so many worthy causes.
This is quite a good product. The only thing that stops me from giving it a full five stars is the lack of configuration options.
Feature Requests:
1. Have corner banner change/rotate on page load.
-- 1a. select which banners from the list you wish to add to the rotation queue.
-- 1b. have URL details set statically for both facebook and twitter, so that should these have been selected/enabled for rotation (1a) the appropriate URL will be generated on banner-load.
2. Option to manually Edit/Add/Remove causes to/from the list.
-- edit: image / name / url
-- add: allow for multiple additions
-- remove: allow for removal of causes you do not support (or have manually added incorrectly etc)
Outside of these feature requests, the current product is excellent. Well done!!

Works and looks great. Real easy to setup. thanks.
Another great module from Ideal...even though I am not a php programmer by any stretch, the changes to the index.php file to add the Campaign module position was a snap! Now we can support several campaigns! Thanks Doug!
This is excellent, with clear instructions, easy to follow. I find this corner banner simpler than others, but what is even better is the fact that it just works.
I had a different corner banner, it looked really pretty but only worked in the front page.
Get INvolved works great on all of my pages. Thanks!

I stumbled across this extension and, being new to Joomla, had no idea really what I was doing in respect to uploading extensions and so on.
I had a small glitch once uploaded, contacted the developer, and within 10 minutes I had a reply to my email and my problem was fixed.
I absolutely love this extension and that I am able to "make a difference" in a small way.
My deep thanks to the developer for making available such a worthy extension.

If I could give this 6 stars, I would! I have installed this on several websites that use Joomla 1.0.x and 1.5.x. It worked first time, every time for me. I wanted to put up a different logo - for a charity supporting young people in difficult circumstances. I emailed the developer; he replied in a few minutes and agreed to help. I emailed him the logo that I wanted on the websites, and he returned the graphic a few minutes later. The idea of this extension is brilliant! And it works! Use it to help others.
... and excellent support from the author.
Had a few issues when installing primarily because I was using an old copy of the module but didn't notice and then the mod_beInvolved.xml file corrupted on upload!
A little help from Douglas and all is working perfectly now.
Top marks!
