This is an excellent extension. Does what it was advertised to do. Has made my design goals a lot more possible. I do have one small issue but it is from my own ignorance and not the extension itself... and I will be contacting the developer to see if I might get some assistance/enlightenment.

This is Perfect!!!
Easily configured, does what it says.
I've noticed that some plugins use this script: {thisplugin}code{end-thisvalue}morecode{end-thisplugin}
Maybe consider it for a future release.
Thank you

I've installed this module and It was working like a charm. But then, I had a problem:
I'm using jumi plugin to insert some of my code. I have it in 2 places. But when I use this module with the jumi plugin (I want to put my code as a module) the articles where I use jumi too, they don't work anymore.
I didn't see a forum about this product, so I ask here. Does it works with several instances of a plugin?

Very useful module and works perfectly. Just one small suggestion - the text parameter fields are a bit small. In the xml file, just replace with - nothing else needs to change and it's a lot easier to use.

This works perfectly and solved a major need for me; I am now able to embed YouTube videos in a Module, allowing for much more design flexibility.

The only issue is a slight lack of easily accessible documentation; here's a hint - You don't access this from the Plugin menu. It took me a moment to find it, but if you create a new module you'll see "Plugin Module" available. Just carefully follow the instructions above. Works great!

Works great except for one thing, when I choose "{plugin}CODE{/plugin}" option and insert Google Map, I get the map, but also the trailing text "{/mosmap}" below the map. Anybody else getting this error?

this module is very usefull !
The only thing that could be better is a text editor for the command to insert. For ex, I've a text to work with a typo plugin and the little field isn't easy to write into.
But this is only a way to improve...
thanks for sharing

I was just looking for some extension like this.

Now when you want to process some content plugin into a module you can simply use this extension!

Thanks!

This module is great ! It does exactly what it says. Thus you can put in modules components that usually only run in article.

However I'm struggling on one point. My component is aligned in the center of my module, while I want it left aligned. All my styles (component and module CSS) are aligned left. Can I fix this somewhere in the "Plugin In Module" ?

Thanks

This one cracked a big plus for me. I was having a really hard time finding a module/extension or bit of code that would allow me to display a Youtube channel nice and cleanly in a module position (as opposed to in an article). I used the plugin for Youtube videos but it only works in articles.

Boyahh! This extension is awesome. I installed it and dropped in the {youtube} syntax an voila. The only thing I had to do was correct a small typo on line 11 of modules/mod_plugin_module/helper.php. There is a a space (aka. nbsp) that messes up the syntax the way I have it setup. No biggie. Awesome module. I'll write a blog post about it shortly.

Looks like exactly what I need, but I can't for the life of me get it to work. Sent an e-mail to the creator over a month ago, no reply. Guess I'll have to find another solution.

Works as you can expect, brilliant.

However, version 1.7 and below is not compatible with PHP 5.3.

I really needed this functionality. In my instance I am using this with sexy bookmarks to make my bookmarks in the content-bottom module position. So I chose the {plugin CODE} type. In the box below I have "sexybookmark" (without quotes, and without {s as indicated). However when I tried to load the module all that was displayed was {sexybookmark }. Notice the space before the trailing curly bracket. If I put {sexybookmark} in the "plugin to execute" field it works but then {} are displayed above the module.

I knew it must be a coding error, so with my limited knowledge of php I started to look for extra spaces. I got to helper.php and found the culprit.

if your having the same problem

look around line 17 in helper.php for:

[code]

$miscinfo->text = $params->get('advancedbefore').'{'.$params->get('plugin').' '.$params->get('command').'}'.$params->get('advancedafter');

[/code]

and then delete the exrta space between the '' like so:

[code]

$miscinfo->text = $params->get('advancedbefore').'{'.$params->get('plugin').''.$params->get('command').'}'.$params->get('advancedafter');

[/code]

Everything was cake after that.

Sorry I was full of work in the last time, I've now solved the little bug!
Thanks!
