Sourcerer enables you to place PHP and any kind of HTML style code (including CSS and JavaScript) right in to your content! Not only in your articles, but also in sections, categories, modules, components, META tags, etc.
You can now just place your original codes right into your WYSIWYG editor. The only thing you have to do is surround the code with the Sourcerer tags. Easy peasy!
So now you can also use PHP scripts in your content. That opens up a great deal of possibilities.
Most Joomla! Text Editors will strip parts of your HTML code, like JavaScripts (think of statistics scripts) and movie embed tags. With Sourcerer you won't have these limitations.
Easy to use editor button
Sourcerer comes with a very easy to use editor button. This will help you paste your code in a clean format that will not cause any problems. Also it comes with syntax coloring (php, js, css, html).

Every now and then you need to customise something specific on a particular page only. This is where this extension comes handy...no need to add extra files to the core - just run any code on any page you want.
This product has made me want to give a review. I understood the directions but the code looked strange and I thought I was doomed after transitioning all my domains to CMS. I am so pleased to know I don't need to know everything, like what the code looks like and panic, because the developer explained how it works. I had already made the leap to lifetime subscription a few weeks ago. Today a review seemed in order because my transition has been easier with the group of modules offered at the website. I don't know Joomla's core, PHP and it has been here only 6 months but I have 7 domains up and running smoothly. Thank you and much success to you too!
I looked for lihe this for ages. i wanted to insert inside my articles an widjet / an html javascript code.
It works perfectly , and it givse you a butten too , so you need to deals with it.
In the and i just used the {source} ...plgin - and iworks great.
just a small advise - copy first your code to notepad to clean it up brfore insert it to your article.

The easy of use of this extension belies it's power. This extension is a must for any Joomla site that wants to step up to the next level!
This extension just allowed me to add the coolest 3rd party charting components into one of my projects. I had owner driver troubles making this work, but the quick and rapid response from Peter the developer in the support forums is miles ahead of any paid component I've experienced to date.
Easy to install and use, with powerful debug options for trouble-shooting your 3rd party integrations and intuitive interface make this one to add as a standard on any Joomla powered site! Other developers could well learn a thing or three from Peter and his wonderful work.
I have been using Joomla since day one (actually back to the days of Mambo beta) and I have to say that this plugin saved me days of hacking code, as it did the heavy lifting in terms of integrating third party java framework into Joomla.
Although this component is free to use and FULLY functional "freeware", I'm personally going to purchase a license from Peter to support his ongoing efforts to provide outstanding support and extensions to our community! I suggest that if you see the same power that this component can add to your site or a client's, you should also support Peter by buying a support license.

Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you!
I just can't say it enough. After weeks of scouring the net, and trying to figure out why Joomla 1.7 wasn't honouring my settings in the Article Text Filters, I was ready to give up.
Then I found Sourcerer, and all of my headaches went away! Thank you so much :)
I will definitely be donating!

I'm a web developer with a few years under my belt. I can do php scripts all day long. But when I started using joomla many of my scripts didn't really fit in anywhere. And I was dreading the idea of learning 'yet another PHP based API' just to add some of my ideas to the sites. Before diving in I looked into php code embedding extensions and found a few. Tried a few. Sourcerer saved me a huge headache. Now I'm doing some crazy things with my sites now and all without knowing even a lick about joomla extension development.
I'm using joomla 1.7.3+ All I have to do is copy my script to the clipboard, start a new element (article,etc), click 'insert code', paste my code between the {source} tags, click 'toggle tag style', then insert & save the element. Its, honest to god, that easy. I recommend all php coders to try this once before diving into extension development.

I have used Jumi for some time, but the documentation is just non-existent...still a great extension, but I couldn't get it working the way I wanted as was looking for something easier to use. This installed with no problems, inserted my code into a Custom HTML module and BAM! It just works, was super easy and it was FREE...just like free beer! Thanks for contributing to the community!
I was having so much trouble with WYSIWYG editors stripping out custom html code from the content I was editing. I installed this plugin and it works like a charm. Any code between the source tags renders perfectly. I tried it with CKEditor and the JCKEditor, and they both work with this plugin. AWESOME job!
Never wrote a review before, but after 3 days of pulling my hair out to get javascript in an article with joomla 1.7.3.
I downloadd this, installed it and hey presto it did exactly as it said within the {source} code, brilliant many thanks for this great, no excellent application

There should be a rating higher than EXCELLENT for this extention! I have tried for the past month to find help so that my html code was not stripped out of my image mapping. No one seemed to have the answer and then I stumbled across Sourcerer!
My image mapping now works! FANTASTIC! I will recommend this extention to everyone and will be looking for more extentions for my future projects!
