PS: I find it astonishing that after more than one year with J!2.5 there's still no fully working and easy-to-use free events-component. I've never had any problems to find one for former Joomla-versions. What has happened?
Hello!
Just award you that some features you say that are missing, are already in iCagenda !!! (duplicate event, dates format, multiple-day-events, possibilities of customising...)
Maybe you didn't have a look at the joomlic forum, with topics about the new features coming in version 1.3 (coming very very soon, in RC released first)
If you have trouble using iCagenda, please, post a new topic on joomlic help forum! Thanks!
iCagenda is young (3 months), FREE!, and in the weeks, and months to come, a lot of new features!
Regards, Lyr!C
Thanks for your review. As you have mentioned, tutorial videos by Gisuebos are really well done!

Thanks for that !!!

Thank you for your review, and as you mentionned, i'm enjoy to do all this work ! ;-)
Thank you so much for the review, it is really appreciated.
Seamless integration... The only missing part would be the front-end creation of event, but apparently this is for next release... I can't wait!
Yes, submit an event in front-end is planned for release 1.3 (with registration, newsletter, and other features : http://www.joomlic.com/en/forum/icagenda-announcements/127-next-major-release-in-developpement-1-3
Thanks for your patience ! :-)
think this product is not yet stable enough for the mass. there could be potential but a lot of work has to be done... but for the moment i would rather go on other products.
You site is really down ?
I'm not sure about that... maybe an other problem. Why you don't have contact me before posting a review ?
(link contact in the bottom of the joomic website)
Thanks ! ;-)
Finally a real management component of events!
Thank you for your review !
Thanks so much
You're welcome! Thank you very much for your review.
Event registration would be fine but it's already under construction.
I would also love to have the component translated to german. For this task I contacted the team to support them in this task.
Thanks for your help!
The German package is on process, translation allready done.
New language pachages in a few days : Portugues-Brasil, Spanish, German, Dutch
;-)
First, it's solid. Good code and no flaws. Second, it's highly customizable. With only a few lines of CSS the look-and-feel can be altered to your liking. And third, it's maintainable.
The only remarkable thing (in my opinion) is the storage of serialized vars in the database event table. I don't see why the developer has that built in, because it holds a date, which also is present in a date field of the same record.
Other than that, it's a splendid calendar solution, that will stick with me for many years to come!
Thank you very much for your review, and for your contribution to this project ! ;-)
This component is very promising, capable of competing with many extensions paying, still young in its development, but quite functional.
The support is very responsive.
Thanks to the developers.
Thanks for your review!
And a new release coming soon, with bugs fixed, and new features ;-)
Thank you too for joining the translation team!
4 new languages packages on progress ;-)
