This is great extension, but it has a serious code flaw in the plugins/system/yoo_effects.php file. After you activate this plugin, check to see if you're getting an error with your rss feeds. If you, this will likely fix it.

1. open plugins/system/yoo_effects.php

2. Locate this code at the bottom of the file:
$document =& JFactory::getDocument();
if ($javascript) $document->addCustomTag($javascript);
if ($lightbox) $document->addStyleSheet($plugin_base . 'lightbox/shadowbox.css');
}

3. Replace with this code:

// add javascript and css
$format = $_GET['format'];
if ( !$format=='feed' ) {
$document =& JFactory::getDocument();
if ($javascript) $document->addCustomTag($javascript);
if ($lightbox) $document->addStyleSheet($plugin_base . 'lightbox/shadowbox.css');
}
}

All I wanted to do was to be able to simply make images popup like I see on other modern web 2.0 sites. This plugin does it without installing other javascript libraries of fussing around writing complex html code.

It's a great extension. However, there's a conflict between addcustomtag() function and the pdf core generation.

To fix it, just open the yoo_effect.php file and, at the end, put a conditional so replace:
if ($javascript) $document->addCustomTag($javascript);
if ($lightbox) $document->addStyleSheet($plugin_base . 'lightbox/shadowbox.css');

by

if ($_GET['format'] !=pdf ){
if ($javascript) $document->addCustomTag($javascript);
if ($lightbox) $document->addStyleSheet($plugin_base . 'lightbox/shadowbox.css');
}

That's all.

Great tool. Brilliant in all aspects I thought, until...

Fatal error: Call to undefined method JDocumentRAW::addCustomTag() in plugins\system\yoo_effects.php on line 56

Seems to not play nice with other Extentions / Components. Google'd the error and was astounded by the extent of this occurence. The "pretty" usefulness of this plugin is outweighed by the need to have functioning components on a website.

Will have to remove it and try again when this is fixed.

all i can say is that it brings fancyness to your content, i like it a lot!

I really like this plugin, the fact it includes 3 different features all rolled into one. It's easy to install and the script is compressed makes load time really quick.

I have to admit the spotlight feature I don't really like but the lightbox and reflection I use thought my site.

The lightbox in particular creates a really stylish affect, great for displaying youtube videos or content from other sites without letting the user leave your site.

Downside?
You do need to join a membership site to get this. But with membership you to get access to lots of other modules and templates.
