This is what I am looking for. But a documentation is missing, I wish you can post a tutorial so I can install it since im not a coder!
thank you!
thank you!
Thus far the extension is workable with a little digging in to customize. What is lacking I feel is a community of support for those who have been using this longer as the support is very limited on the developers site. This is an exceptional tool like none other if you have the need. But customization takes knowing where code lives in the files and if you are not a code person there will be difficulty. Support from code users to help newbies would be great.
The old version on 1.5 worked very well, we've received over 30k request without a problem. Where redeveloping our site in 1.7 and it fails on install and all menu links open in a page with a PHP "Encoding_Error_".
I've emailed the arthur countless times and have never received a response. I would give this 5 stars, but I can't get it to work or correctly install, and support is non-existent.
I hate to look for other alternatives.

Love this component. easy to install and setup, if you need help the forum and staff are great.
Any chance on creating a android/iphone app where once submitted from the app it would still send the confirmation to the admin and get stored in the DB and allow us to publish as if they sent it directly from the site?

This was very easy to install, modify and use. The documentation is straight forward, easy to follow even for novice like myself.
Guys, you have done a very good job and May all the prayer requests that are made with this module carry a silent but surely answerable prayer for you! I highly recommend it for anyone seeking to add prayer feature to their website.

The product was easy to install and has all of the features we were looking for. Setup and use are intuitive and it will make a great addition to our website. On the con side, support and documentation have room for improvement. One feature, not working as stated, is the email to a distribution list. Overall, it's a great product.
I love Prayer Center for Joomla 1.5 and use it on several sites. Would highly recommend it.
What I was wondering and would LOVE To see is a 1.6 version. I have several ministry sites that I currently develop and maintain and they have the desire to go to Joomla 1.6 but until we can either find a suitable alternative or Prayer Center comes out with a compatible version, we are kind of in waiting. Obviously for ministries the Prayer Center component is vital and appreciated! :)

PrayerCenter is a wonderful component for our church website, but it has an issue with inserting backslashes right before all apostrophes in the prayer requests. Other than that... it's great!
I love how easy it is to use. The only part I don't get is how to edit your sample text at the start of the page.
This: "Prayer is the practice of the presence of God. It is the place where pride is abandoned, hope is lifted, and supplication is made. Prayer is the place of admitting our need, of adopting humility, and claiming dependence upon God. Prayer is the needful practice of the Christian. Prayer is the exercise of faith and hope. Prayer is the privilege of touching the heart of the Father through His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. James 4:8
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phil. 4:6-7
Father, in Your mercy, hear our prayers."
I haven't figured out where to edit this at. Make that a little easier to locate and I think you'll have a pretty amazing product there!

I like the thought of this extension, but I am having issues with installing. It states that the .xml file is missing. But I do like the placing of this component.

You will need to unzip the download file first. Within that zip file you will find the installation package as well as some instructional documentation. God bless!
I saw this when I was looking for extensions for my church's youth band. I downloaded it, installed it, tested it and it worked great. Great extension. Thank you and God Bless!
i love this component how easy it is to submit prayers.
This is such a wonderful component! Worked perfectly for me as well as the other modules thats available. Im using everything and got wonderful response when I requested captcha for the Guestbook. I had a new version with captcha encluded within a few days. Cant ask for more than that. I recommend anyone that needs this type of product for this site to give it a try. You will love it, and make a donation to this man. He deserves it!!!

It was a pleasure working with you Vicki. God bless!
I would love to give this component an Excellent rating but I can't. The component is wonderful component but if you have a problem with it you will have problems getting support. Yes, I know this is a freebie. I have sent an email and posted on the website forum and have not heard from anyone. The problem that I have with this component is when I publish the prayer request and the emails are suppose to go out to my users, I get an error message. This issue really limits the usefulness of this component.
