JooDatabase
Hello, I'm still waiting for a alternative to the only extension open source able to manage external databases; this is another of those extensions to deal with the Joomla database but external DBs.

Hello,


very promising extension but the advanced search and some other features like table joining and prefilter (left join atc.) works only if the last update due to the continuing development is ok.

So still instable for now.

I hope that in a stable release all the advanced features will work. It would be the only advanced database Joomla extension to be open source!!


Bye.

hi the latest release 2.0rc3 has fully working support for joins and prefilters.
We've been working on improvements to the nightly builds to enhance the filter code, which has meant the SVN has had some issues, but I feel its really unfair to rate us as 1 star for work that hasn't had an official release :(

Compared to commercial products this is tough about looks and feel and learning time.

It would be great if there were video tutorials about the use of the features of the component.

Last thing is about the time (very long) it takes from the set of a feature (menu item creation and so on) in the MosQ administrative panel and the time it affect the frontend.

The best point of all is that this component is free.


Thank you.

When the menu item created it should show immediately unless your host has some kind of caching going on.
This product is open source and the whole documentation is come as a working sample so I welcome everyone to help to improve the documentation in the sample just edit what you think that could improve the product and send me the enhance and will be include in the future release with credit to your contribution.
Thanks

Ninja RSS Syndicator (aka BCA RSS)
Hello,


I have installed your component and setted all the features as in your FAQ.

I have tried to pubblish an article and open its feed in a reader. The results are: it works in firefox only and does not go in: www.netvibes.com, Bloglines, Google reader and so on.

I expected an http://www.mysite.com/RSS(/OPML...) adress.

I would like an address in the form of: www. mysite.com/RSS; the only way it will work in readers and in others websites.

Let me know if that is possible.
