Very easy to use, delivers content as advertised. Developer is quite responsive and provides great service, I had one minor issue for which got response on very same day.
Highly recommended, this extension is well worth the money.

I'm pretty sure I've tried ever tool out there that pulls feeds in - and this tool, by far, does everything I need it to do. Easy to use right out of the box. No problems at all! This is the first Joomla extension I can say that about.

Now - if you could keep all this functionality and be able to create articles/excertps from the feeds that would be fantastic! Only because it would give you greater control - being able to handle the feed pulls as articles.....and it would speed up your site as you wouldn't have to rely on the feeds being pulled down each time a page was refreshed. But, that is not the problem of this tool - just the way it is when pulling feeds.

Highly Recommend!!!

I installed the extension without any problems. It works great "out of the box". I entered 2 RSS URLs and played around with the parameters to get the "look and feel" that I wanted. At this point I was impressed with the extension.

As background - I run 2 other sites that have a different RSS Reader installed (which is available from this Joolma repository). This RSS Reader manages 30 URLs without any problem. The system generates 10 pages of text, i.e. 100 links/articles from the feeds.


When I loaded the same 30 URLs into "Ultimate Feed Display", I got the following:

CRASH !!! Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted...

I reduced the number of URLs, and it seems that around the 24 mark the system just falls over every time.

My recommendation:

- Fix this memory issue.
- All the administrator to place the page selectors at the top and/or bottom of the page.
- Manage the URLs seperately and allow each one to be switched on/off.
- Have a "progress bar" to indicate the loading of the articles.

Until then - your product is just not made for "heavy duty" processing. At least change your marketing information and tell people that your product is only for a limited number of RSS feeds.

Hello,
first of all the review is welcomed but I think it's unfair.Many links means more connections and this requires a good hosting. All links are fetched together because items must sorted by date.

If you test other same softwares, have the same behavior. By the way, I don't see any support ticket with this issue if you wish you can contact for suggestions

Upon researching and installing numerous modules (free), we have exhausted our patience and gave this module a try after paying 8 euros (for a full year of support and 7 euros to renew).

The feed displays are customized. Multiple feeds on one page - no problem! And the best part - it WORKS "out the box." Support is outstanding (fast replies). We highly recommend this module.

Thank You for developing this module and continuing your support into j2.5!

So many different options give me the ability to show a feed however I want. Nowhere else could I find this. It's great for showing a youtube video library from an RSS feed but didn't have lightbox support for vimeo. I wrote to the developer and within that same day, he provided the updated program with the vimeo compatibility. Couldn't ask for better support!

This is a fantastic module. Does exactly what I need and looks nice just on the initial upload. IT saved me a lot of work. My thanks to the developer!

This is a very good module.

But unfortunately some RSS feeds will take a long time to load and causing entire site to load much longer.

Solution would be to this module to use AJAX, as some of the other feed readers here. Then site loads in normal speed and not depends on the feeds reading time.

I would pay extra 8€ again for this feature.

Here is one of the kind that make you stop looking elsewhere, what a deep relief!!
The developer was ready to offer a new feature ("keyword filter") and followups in a few hours during a weekend.
You will never regret paying for this excellent piece of work, I couldn't be happier.

I can't speak highly enough of this extension.

I have been installing and trying all sorts of feed extensions and I had quite serious issues with most, mainly concerning lack of versatility and options as well as performance impact (very important)

I really liked the demo of this extension and gave it a try and I am happy to report I have found the main solution to not only one but more of my needs.

First of all, its performance is amazing...I couldn't believe it could fill a whole page with article feeds without negatively impacting page load times. I believe other feed-extension developers can learn from Ultimate feed display.

Secondly, the default styling is great, it fit great in my site.

Thirdly, this is something that sets it apart, it is great in getting youtube feeds and displaying them like articles. The fact that on click the videos are loaded in a jquery popup (also loads amazingly fast) without the visitor leaving your site is a very nice touch.

It has actually saved me the trouble and money of getting a youtube channel extension, and pasting video id or link after video id/link. With this extension, I get the similar functionality but better, more article-like appearance.

Great Work!

Nothing bad to say.

What I would propose for future releases is
a) adding support for other video streaming sites (actually I haven't tested to see if this works yet)
b) Incorporating a pagination functionality, to be able to load many items, while still controlling the length of the webpage.
The developer said it can be done and will be implementing this feature in versions to come, so I am very optimistic.

I don't buy joomla extensions in general, there are so many great free ones that a person is made to doubt whether such investment is worth it.
I can happily say it was definitely worth buying this extension. Finding software that exceeds expectations is not an every day thing...

In addition to everything else, support is prompt and effective and the module is actively developed and improved. I have witnessed two new versions while being a few days customer and there was nothing wrong with the previous versions on my site.

Keep it up Mr Zgouletas!

Thanks for this great review. The truth is that I have worked hard. Pagination is supported also from 1.3.17+ ...so upgrade to have all latest fixes and features!

I had tried to avoid paying for extensions but this one is so worth it. My site was good before but lacked "wow factor" This gives it the touch I was looking for and the lightbox popup keeps visitors on my site. 5 Stars!

Support is top-notch as well.

I am very happy with this module and I would like you to consider something for the next version:
Could you please add a choice of a random 5 images when you have no images in the rss feed? That way, we don't have the same logo 10 times on display. That would be great if you could do that and that will make this module even more perfect. :-)

I'll give it 5 stars because 10 note is not available!

I looked hard for a feed reader, and I lost a lot of time testing modules! A module that you can configure it without always fiddling with the code! Not being a programmer, it is always a headache and a huge waste of time!

I saw the demo and after trying on my site, I was even more surprised!
Certainly worth the purchase! It is a big deal, and the high level of support, far outweighs the investment!

Before and after I buy the module, I sent many emails with questions that I myself started to feel bad for the excess of questions and doubts!
But not only were answered promptly and were settled and adjusted to my needs!

I'm developing a site for the dissemination of events and if not this module, would spend hours, weeks and months of work. This avoids filling the site with this info! Now it's automatic!
Congratulations and thank you for this module!

The Ultimate RSS Feed extension is just what I was looking for. Easily configured , with a clean & appealing look & feel. Had a small issue with the lightbox viewer when having 2 feeds in different modules on the same page, but the support was excellent and had it fixed within a few hours of submitting a ticket. Thank you so much!

I was looking for a module to display RSS without having the user leave my site - this modules is exactly what I needed.
Once I had small problem with configuration the developer patiently helped me through to get it to work the way I wanted to.

Great module - great support - well worth a small price you have to pay to get it.

Looking for a perfect feed reader...look no further! I had one small problem with the youtube videos not opening up in the lightbox window. Within a couple days support responded and fixed it with an update so now there is a youtube lightbox option! Some of the best support I've seen yet. Excellent! Excellent! - Gary

I've tried and samples many, and many have failed ... or have work but with extreme effort and required plenty of css coding.

This module is perfect. It's plug and play at its finest.

Another feature that I don't think isn't credited enough is the fact that the feeds open up in a new browser within your webpage, so users don't actually leave your site. Brilliant.

5/5 and a must must by for the price.
