NEW: 2.5 compatible!
NEW: 1.6/1.7 compatible now!
NEW: when user clicks on notification to close it, this is now (optionnally) remembered in a cookie, so the she doesn't see it on next pages.
Based on the excellent Notimoo script, shotimoo has a very cool look and feel, and can be used to let users know about special offers, new blog post, upcoming maintenance tasks/site outages or any other information you want to convey to your users.
As a module, shotimoo is very agile and you can place multiple instances of it on different menu items with different notices. You can even specify the start and end time for easy "set it and forget it" functionality.

HTML support doesn't works (Joomla 2.5), no possibility to insert a link and no UTF-8 support. What a pity ! I'am wondering the added value of this module.
It's a module made by english spoken people for english spoken people (futhermore who don't need any advanced features).

Sorry it didn't suit your needs. This is why it is a free add-on.
Just like i said.
Love the Shotimoo Module.
Works great so far no bugs like most of the extensions that i install end up not working with other extensions.
this one is working great so far i only wish it had the option to center the message box into the middle of the page. Its really worth downloading and installing it into all of your pages and disabling it until needed.
very nice, cleanly done and easy to use.

I'm glad its working for you. Hopefully we'll find some time this summer to update it and add some features.
Easy to install and configure. Very useful, exactly what I needed. Thank you.

Glad you like it! :)
Installed, and up on the site in no time at all, no messing around required. All I need now is a 1.7 version of this fantastic little module.

Hi
Thanks for the first review :)
I wrote this for our own usage, so I'm glad someone else like it. Indeed, we do need to package it up for 1.6+ Joomla!
