The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

well i have used this extension on my website. This fulfills all the requirements that I needed. Clicking on an image, leads you to the article details and also the image pop out way is very good. Thanks mavik.

A must have plugin!
Works every time and saves me tons of work and time!

Easy to setup and use.

There are no documentation on how to use this plugin. The demo site is in Russian - what is the syntax of this plugin? I wonder why the developers do not mention anything on the description

This plugin has worked on EVERY install of Joomla i have. I would HIGHLY recommend this plugin!

I am faced with one problem however. I have not been able to get this plugin to work on images in the category description. Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

I installed it on my new J1.6 association website. Got an error at first, sent an email, and Mavik uploaded a fixed version within hours !
Now working just fine, very easy to use.

One little remark : we could use some english documentation and an example, the link to a russion website is a bit rough. 2 Pages would be enough.

Thumbs up !

After testing a few other extensions to enlarge all the small pictures of my website (about 160x 200 pix) to 800x600, I choosed Mavik thumbnails, and it is almost perfect.
It would be completely perfect if it didn't make conflict with my mootools slider in the header.

This is a must if you want Joomla to have any chance of working like a blogging platform.

After trying many solutions for automatic generation of miniatures, this is definitely my favorite. It has the big advantage of not requiring any tags (it just checks if the image has been resized). This means that if you uninstall it, all pages will stay just as they are : no ugly code left behind, simply the images won't be clickable anymore.
The opening effects are clean and work out of the box (highslide used to bug on chromium but this has been fixed in the last version).
Such a nice plugin would have deserved a page on the developer's site. (Apologies if there is one : I do not read ukrainian, and Google translate did not help me find it neither). Something like a changelog or a roadmap would be informative.
In the end, I've been using this extension for more than one year on several sites and it has always proven simple and reliable. Thank you very much !

I've registered in the community for the first time for this review.

This plugin really works perfectly. I've encountered some problems when trying to integrate the windows live writer application
RPC-XML plugin and Highslide plugin.

The aim was to use comfortable interface of WinLiveWriter to publish content easily with Highslide effects automatically attached to images of the article.

JoomSlide and other plugins, unfortunately, didn't work and onclick method was removed when publish by XML-RPC.

So, adding class="mavik" (or whatever name u want) attribute to the image is the solution because this beautiful plugin does not only creates highslide effect but also converts images on category and frontpage view to links to articles and this option is also very, very, very useful.

thanks.

an excellent plugin without great options configured to behave and appreciate excellent option especially for links to articles

I use this plugin for several years. Working great, even as a simple photo-gallery within an article. The upgrade came after long time. It works good with few new features, unfortunately it corrupts my Rocketheme News Pager module in EI8. Kind of automated thumbnail creation of the module issue. Never mind, I went back to the older mavik plugin, happy again. I wish to find a fix for my problem. Otherwise I recommend this plugin.

Very usefull thanks

Can I change the language in highslide-popup?

One of the extensions that i'm setting up on each site. Works every time.

Would even be better if it was possible to set up an watermark in the pictures.

Very easy to use, just install activate... it works Great!!! Thank you! :)

This is one of the best extensions for Joomla! Thank U.

I tried this plugin 1 month ago. I didn`t gave atention on loading site at first. But after I checked website few times, it was strange that it load so long. I disabled mavik Thumb plugin and it work as it should. So in next update you could do a fix for that :)

So easy to use. No tagging, it just automatically sizes the images to what you define when you add the image to an article. Brilliant. Joomla should do this automatically.

I did run into one issue, when using slim box as the popup method, the popup appears behind my upper menu system. (rocket theme template) There was one post here describing that issue and what they did in the CSS to solve it, but I didn't understand the code they were describing. (I'm not a coder).

But on most templates, it works great, and even in my case the other "modes" of the popup, work fine. Also, there is an option that the thumbnail will take you to the article when in 'blog mode' instead of doing the popup. (once you are in the article, the thumbnails then popup to a larger size)

Absolutely brilliant.

The other other change I would suggest, is a simple button in the plugin setup that will purge the no longer used thumbnails from the system, they do accumulate in there. If you experiment when placing an image, and try 3 or 4 different sizes, then decide on 1... the old thumbnails that were generated during testing still exist in the server. This doesn't hurt anything, but does take up space.

Great job!

Thank you for such a wonderful plugin! I am in love with it.

This is a very good extension. Very easy to use thanks to the fantastic automation. However, I had to mark it one star down because it does not downscale images in the RSS-feed.
