The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

Come over here for a BIG KISS!

Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you,Thank you!

I just can't say it enough. After weeks of scouring the net, and trying to figure out why Joomla 1.7 wasn't honouring my settings in the Article Text Filters, I was ready to give up.

Then I found Sourcerer, and all of my headaches went away! Thank you so much :)

I will definitely be donating!

I hate to leave a bad review - but this is necessary.

I wasn't having a terrible time with robot registrations. After looking at the reviews here, I decided to pay and give this a try - seemed like a great extension, and everyone had good things to say.

Well, I was running Joomla 1.7, and it only shows support for up to Joomla 1.6. It caused my site to break - understandable. Not their fault. So, I restored, and then posted in their forum, asking when the extension would be 1.7 ready.

No answer.

Others posted behind me...no answer.

Then I noticed that support had been completely lacking for the last year. People ask questions, and no one answers.

I decided to email him directly from his website. No answer...a month later, I try again...no answer.

I call his phone number, in the UK...no answer.

So, I finally gave up on this extension. I realize that my money is lost, and I won't see it again. I'm writing this review so that no one else will get suckered into paying him any more money.

If Joomla reviews this review, then I ask you to please remove him from the JED, or investigate the problem at the very least.

I've been running Joomla websites for about 5 years. I've dealt with all sorts of extensions, and support. Most are ok, some are bad, but very few are amazing. EasyBlog is one of the amazing extensions. It is a rare gem.

I had never blogged before, but new it was necessary to build my website/business. So, I looked over a few extensions, and finally settled on EasyBlog. With a 30 day money back guarantee, what could I lose?

I could rave and rave about the product...but I would eat up too much space. There is so much going on with the software - it does EVERYTHING! Every time I go back to their website I discover a new feature that I didn't know about. I am constantly learning about new tricks and settings in the admin area. It you want it, it will do it! And, if it doesn't yet, then they will probably work their butts off to make it happen.

That leads me to the next point: Support.

I am always happy to pay for extensions, because it usually means that they will have good support to back up their product. Sadly, that is not always the case. Some support is slow, rude, or non-existent. That IS NOT the case with EasyBlog. Their support is one of the best I have ever come across. They are fast, knowledgeable, super friendly, and ALWAYS ready to bend over backwards to solve a problem. I can't even count the number of times they have gone above and beyond to help me out.

Sure, there have been some conflicts. I've had some issues with JomSocial, sh404sef, etc. But, they have come to the rescue each and every time, and solved the issues. They really stand behind their product, and are constantly working to make it better.

You will never regret this purchase. Get it, love it, and forget about all other blogging extensions. EasyBlog has the market covered!

I used to use Ninjamonials, which was a nice component...but, when the time came to upgrade my site to J1.7, they weren't ready to go. So, I made the switch to JE Testimonials. I've been very happy. Easy to use, lots of options, nice to look at.

NOTE: The only reason I'm not giving it full stars, is because they desperately need to improve upon the avatar feature. It feels so clunky that people need to find and upload an avatar...it is inconvenient, and offers lots of room for crappy images to go along with your testimonials.

I would LOVE LOVE LOVE it if they could make it work with CB, Jomsocial, etc, so that it simply populated the field with whatever avatar people are using on the website. It would be awesome!

Please develop that feature :) Thanks!

This is perhaps the most important extension in Joomla. It has saved my website so many times! This should come standard with all new versions of Joomla. Trying to build a website without it is SUICIDE! And, best of all, it is FREE!

Thank you for this excellent plugin. I am running Joomla 1.7 and JomSocial. I was baffled why the JomSocial registration process was working sometimes, and not at other times. JomSocial recommended I try this plugin, and I'm very happy I did.

Note: I see where ddt4ever might have had his problem. The first time I installed, I somehow downloaded an older version of the plugin. CRASHED my site completely. Luckily, I always backup before installs. Of course, this was not the plugin's fault...just my own silly error. So, I restored, found the correct version for 1.7 and installed with no problems.

Now it works perfectly :)

I can't say thank you enough for JFBConnect. It is a great product!

I'm rebuilding my company website for Joomla 1.7, and it included Jom_Social. I heard from everyone that their Facebook integration was buggy...and that I should try JFBConnect.

Install was easy, and when I ran into weird quirky errors(not their fault at all), JFBConnect was their to hold my hand. They were very patient as I requested constant assistance.

even as I post this, one of their guys is going above and beyond to help me do 'just one more thing' to my site.

Pay the money - get the extension - it is worth it. And the benefit received by letting people connect so easily through Facebook is priceless!!!

Easy table pro, is an awesome extension. My company website now completely depends on it, and we find ourselves in a bit of a bind...we're upgrading to Joomla 1.7...and the extension doesn't support it yet.

If I could find another table extension that worked even half as good as this one, I might justify jumping ship...but, that is not the case. These guys have worked hard to build the best table extension out there.

I guess I'll just have to wait patiently until they get around to it...if a donation would speed it up, let me know!

I looked for a long time for a FAQ extension for my website. All seemed to be lacking something. Then I came across JEFAQ pro, and couldn't be happier. Nice layout, easy to use, and lots of options to customize!

Some people don't like commercial extensions, 'cause they hate to pay. I used to have that opinion - then I realized the error of my way. Paid is the only way to go. You know they take their work seriously...they will be there for support...they will be making updates/fixes...and MOST importantly, they will work hard to build a new version that is ready for the latest Joomla version (now 1.7). Nothing sucks more that upgrading to the new Joomla, and realizing that the "FREE" extension that you desperately need, isn't working.

Anyway, quite a rant...the point is JEFAQ Pro is great - worth the money - I've had awesome support - GET IT! You won't regret it :D

What an awesome little component. I installed it as a word blocker for my forum. There were other options out there, but this is by far the best one I've seen. And the beautiful thing is that it is fully customizable. I needed something that could replace words, not just mark ****. I needed to block some company names from appearing, and this is just the component!

Of course, I'm selling it short...I've only mentioned one feature...there are so many things you can use this ingenious component for. Look at some of the other reviews for ideas.

The support is awesome. I emailed the company with a quick question, and they wrote asap with advice. Truly awesome.

And I can't believe it is free! A+++
