Great component. It does add value to the existing Joomla core with Social Bookmarking (share this) and allowing user friendly views for any specific Section of your site.

It works perfect with Joomla 1.5.x. This component will make you so happy that you will really feel guilty not donating money to the developer... I did so but I wish the Euro was so strong against the US$.

My only wish list would be to do a straight integration to ShareThis.com (include a user account #), this would allow any webmaster to really track how many users are social-book-marking their website.

I am migrating a website with over 5,000 users. This Component made the migration process SUPER easy.

I like the fact that it gives you the option to import the passwords or you can assign them. I just save all the records into a comma delimited text file and copy and pasted the file into the component... over 5000 records imported fast. It then fives you warning of duplicate entries or other errors that you can track down easily.

Two thumps UP!

This module is just fantastic. It provides an elegant display for your RSS. I needed a module that allows me to change the rss feeds links to internal and this one did the trick for me.

Also, to display the dates on the module you may have to hack the module files, but in the forum there are VERY clear instructions on how to accomplish this... quite simple and easy to customize (even for non php users).

Slick RSS won my vote!

I also was looking for a social media button and I believe this is an excellent plug-in (the best one in my opinion).

You can select which social media function you would like to offer in your articles and yet is all managed in one good looking button, it also allows you to change the default colors and/or change the css.

The new version runs well on Joomla 1.5 (native)

This is a perfect fit for non-profit organizations that would like to extend the capabilities of Joomla CMS to a CRM. CiviCRM is not a simple component, is a whole CRM system so you need to be patient with the installation process.

I was able to import over 9,400 contacts from over 3,000 organizations. The learning curve is not so bad (it may take you a couple of weeks) and the support is superb.

Event Registration will allow you to customize registration fields and the user can keep a record of all the events that he/she attended. There is also an option to synchronize your events with an iCalendar, so you get the flexibility of displaying the events in different formats.

From the administrator point of view you can collect information for many different internal lists. The records can be exported or imported from CSV. This CRM is just great but be aware that is not for beginners.

This plugin is very easy to configure and works very well on Joomla 1.5

Just be aware that if you are loading a Flickr album with lots of images, your page may take a little longer to upload. However, this little inconvenience is compensated by the fact that you can access and customize any image from your Flick account, including the captions.

I have tried many slideshows and I REALLY like RokSlideshow. It has many configuration parameters which allow you to personalize your slideshow, at the same time is extremely easy to set up and create new galleries. GREAT JOB!

This tool is just fantastic.

Make sure to read the instructions.

Also for extending the plugin to component and modules you need to make a little modification to the index.php on the Joomla root directory... be aware on your upgrades that you might need to make changes to the file.

In the setup for the plugin you may need to input your coordinates (LAT and LOG)... I found a great site to do www.flashearth.com


Hands down the most amazing google map tool out there, great job!

It's easy to install and it works great. I do agree that it would be FANTASTIC to have the categories and subcategories option.
