The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

After initial problems obviously due to JS conflict, the guys from ARI Soft helped my out until the problem was solved - even for the non-commercial version. Thank you and I recommend this lightbox really ! Different from module versions, this one allows you to have several modal window links on one page, exactly what I was looking for.

Great component where one can see that the authors put a big deal of work into it.
I give just 4 stars because for a normal user with a simple web page this component is surely an overkill.

Just one comment / this thing is awesome !
A must have for file management.
The only small drawback is the htaccess error that I get when I try to use it through a firewall ... even by following the instructions from the support I cannot get a server connection using Endian Firewall, but thats a quite special problem.
Anyhow thanks a lot for this very nice and useful extension !

Nice idea but personally I think one can easily live without this extension. For me it becomes confusing to work with the articles in flexicontent but with the "old" menus in Joomla at the same time / apart from the warnings "wrong foreach parameter" that show up all the time.
Dont want to discourage anybody but I think the authors should make suggestions to the Joomla Core Team for improvements - not to put another application on the existing one.
Anyhow thanks for the try, personally I removed the extension from my website.

This is the best extensions I've found yet to manage multilingual content ! Works also with Virtuemart if you can find the xml files needed...
But JoomFish has 2 drawbacks in my opinion:
(1) you must disable the missing translation plugin or you will get the message "no translation" on each page
(2) more serious: the translation process is extremely confusing !
My default language is spanish, I wanted an english translation:
In the Translation Tab you have to go to ENGLISH (even there is no english language yet...) not to the original language. And THERE you have to make the translation (not the other way, what would be logical to me).
Confusing also is the conflict between menus and articles (content). You can create articles in the second language independent from the original one and let the menu translation point to this new article. To "translate" an article with the JoomFish options seems unnecessary and confusing to me, since we can always create articles in any language without Joomfish anyhow.

Anyhow a big thanks to the authors of this extension, this really saved my web site ! After some hours of struggling I got it run at least. Hope there will be improvements in the future, keep the good work up !

Can just say: this is PERFECT !
It should be in the core of Joomla, thanks a lot for this work !

Very nice layout of the RSS Links with tooltip popup... unfortunately it does not allow to use utf8 characters, these will be transformed into a kind of japanese/chinese mix :-( The manual use of iconv in the source code does help, nevertheless I could not get the popup window to look reasonable. My solution: go back to version 1.4 where these problem did not appear.
Anyhow thanks a lot for the very useful extension ! Keep it up !

Thanks for this great plugin ! Its very useful for me to add an upload area in my article.

I just like to suggest 2 more features for the future, if possible:
(1) Add separate rights for the "special user" as well (not only for public and registered)
(2) allow several upload areas in one article (maybe allow several [repository] tags inside the pluging or allow several {jsmallfib} tags in one article

If that will be the case, this is unbeatable for me !
Thanks again and keep it up ! Chris

I like this editor a lot, it is lightweight and has all the features of the "big" online editors...
BUT:
(1) I cannot get image editing to work, I just get a new small window that does nothing :-(
(2) The articles on the frontpage have no edit button, only on the other pages
(3) by opening the editor I get a javascript alert error that the editor_url path is not set... anyhow if i click OK, then everything's back to normal

Hoping that this will improve and thanks a lot for the great work !

I like this email module because it is very simple and effective. Different from the claiming there is only one form of spam protection by answering a simple question - that is ok but I agree with another user that a captcha would make the whole thing perfect, therefore only 4 of 5 point. Anyhow thanks a lot for this work !

This component excellent with a nice frontend - BUT: when the component page is called, then the whole css of the page is gone ! In other words... not usable :-(

well.... first nobody said that you need the core design plugin scriptegrator to make this plugin run... then after installing that, the message "404 component not found" keeps coming up. Probably its not working with SEF turned on :-(( that would be a very weak point. I had to switch back to the old plugin "load component in module position"

Thats what many were surely waiting for for a long time ! This component might be able to replace the category view of Joomla as well as the many "news-list" modules and components swirling around !
Install this component first and then think if you need any other extension !
One small flaw that I couldnt figure out - after posting a comment the message "Page reloading..." appears but nothing happens. Hope that could be solved as well to make this component the no.1 in content news display. Thanks for your work !
