This is one of the extensions my sites can not live without. It works out of the box. Well done. One suggestion for future releases: the option to select all categories/section and than exclude particular sections/categories. This would be nice, but is not essential.
Thanks to the developers.

We were looking for an admin module that allows short cuts and icons to be linked to standard admin functions. You can of course place links to functions in the custom html module, but we were looking for short cuts to functions (for example to open a component or the article manager without the need to go through the menu structure). In particular, we wanted to use Ctrl+w as a short cut to open the editor for a new article.
This module makes it very easy to define the short cuts. It not only give you a drop list of components and menu items you can link to. Especially useful is also the opportunity to link to any url.
Two thumbs up for the developers.

This plugin is very useful if you want to set up your own file sharing system on a Joomla website. It is especially useful if you want to share documents that are too large to attach to an email message and/or when you do not want to use other file sharing services or an FTP site. Since it is a plugin, you can insert repositories directly in an article with a simple tag.
The graphic presentation is great and the plugin works out of the box. Really fantastic.
One of the best plugins we have seen!!! If we could give it 6 stars, we would.

It is an excellent module, but do have the problem that the text appears for 3 seconds and then it disappears and an empty note is shown. I tried the module in two different templates and the same problem occurs. I nevertheless give it five stars because I really like the concept.
Wish list: I hope this problem can be solved and it would also be good to add more color pins. The current one is green and may not work well with the color scheme of sites - a choice of a few primary colors would be excellent.

Templater is one those extensions that fill in a gap in the Joomla core functionality. Highly recommended for sites that need to standardize content.
Wish list: To be able to set a default template that is loaded in the article automatically for articles in a certain category - in the current version, users need to select a template from a drop down under the editor first.
This extension is excellent.

Thanks for your review.
Content Templater is an editor button. |This basically means that it is activated once you click on it. It would be pretty tough to make it automatically place text end such as soon as the page is opened. It is probably posible, but I'm not sure I'm going to do it, because it has some drawbacks too.

I have used Xtypo for a while and it is a fantastic plug in for those who need beautiful CSS in articles. Installation is simple. Using the code is even easier.
The developers provide a very useful list of style examples in the plug in. You just copy and paste the syntax into your article and voila, it works.
After some trial and error, and checking the forums, I found out that IE7 renders the code differently than FF. Some styles work in both browsers (quotes), while other styles seem to generate problems with IE7(rounded boxes) - or perhaps it is better to say that IE7 is creating the problems, because it works with FF.
The solution is incredibly simple: When you copy and paste the code from the examples in the plug in, the typo coding syntax is in bold characters. This seems to be a problem for IE7. Just make sure the code you place in your article is not in bold and the styles work in FF and IE7!!!
