At first I thought the cost of this component was an issue, but then after experiencing the support and the features this component has I can say that it's worth every penny.

Keep up the good work Daniel......

Geommunity
Amazing that's it!

The map shows jomsocial members in either icon or avatar form, the plugin allows members to update their location as they move. It also shows event locations too, this is amazing.

The amount of configurable options in the back end is huge.

And all for €25 half the price on other map modules on here that do half as much.

Keep up the good work guys! Joomla needs you :-)
JS Yahoo!Weather
So far so good but still in testing phase, but clean and simple, took me a couple of minutes to fing the WOEID thing but it's the number in the URL bar after you enter you location, plus Yahoo only shows today and tomorrow on the forecast rather than a google 4 day....

Major plus is that you can have different locations rather than just having one, so if you have a travel site this is excellent :-) Easy to configure the background colour too

Thank you for your review.
I recomand you to use our forum from our site.
There will be a new release soon, with a custom script for finding the desired WOEID

I like this but it has one massive flaw for me which is in integration with Joomla login or jomsocial login, meaning your users have to create a disqus account to leave comments which is a bit counter intuitive to me.
Apart from that looks nice and seems to work well but I will be hunting for other options with more integration before I go live.

ARI Ext Menu
amazing!!!!!

Just upload it and select the menu you want to relace (mine was the main menu, so you then turn main menu off), then select the modules position 0-whatever, 0 for me as I wanted it at the top and bam-a-lam, all done. Just going to buzz them about changing the background colour but from the questions on the support forum looks like I'll be getting a quick response.

Excellent module so far.

GoogleMap
I downloaded this, uploaded it to my site and had it working in a few minutes and I am fairly new to joomla.

The great things about google map lite (free version) is its free obviously, but you can have custom icons on it through the server which is great for me. Now all my info from my site can go on one map and users can instantly see where articles are from, have locations to go to and see where local shops and services relevant to that content. Oh and did I say it was free.

Excellent!!

My site is basically a video site hosted on my own server and before fidmap was installed I couldn't find myself in a google search for scuba diving videos. A week after installing it I am now ranked 40th in the world by Google, now to me that is a module that adds value to my site.

I didn't install it myself though was only charged for 3 hours for this and some other stuff by my developer and he didn't raise any issues on it, so I assume it was easy to install too.

Cheers Guys

This is fantastic!
