Security Images
SecurityImages is a good component, the author must had put much more efforts in the development. But it requires hacks to the Joomla! core files and other 3rd party extensions which want to use this CAPTCHA engine. I think these hacks will creat difficulties for later updates. This is just like cut foot to fit the boot.

Maybe a better solution is to add CAPTCHA engine to the Joomla! core. I mean, let Joomla! has its own CAPTCHA component and plugin and API. Then any 3rd party extension can call and show security code if it was coded to use this API.

Thanks for your efforts, hope Joomla! team will add this feature soon.

This is a great plugin, as a former commenter said, it should be included in the C.B. core.

I think this plugin can help to make a video Personal Introduction or something like this.

However, I would like to make a suggestion. Could you please add more other video sharing providers besides Youtube and Google? If you feel difficult, maybe you can consider to call Allvideos Plugin to do this job. Because Allvideos Plugin support more than 40 providers around the world. I hope some Chinese providers will be supported by this plugin, because Chinese Joomla! users seldom use Youtube, they like Chinese video sharing websites more and those sites are more faster.

Thanks.

Mass Content
This is a good component. But when I try to paste some text copied from other webpages, the result will show up without line break.

I think the author can add a new feature: use wysiwyg editor in this component, then it can keep those line breaks.

Thank you very much.

Remository
I have been using Remository component for a long time. This is the best downloading management component for Joomla! now. I recommend it to everayone.

The latest news is there is also a new native version for Joomla! 1.5 to run without legacy mode.

AllVideos Reloaded
This plugin solved the video quoting request on Joomla! 1.5.

We had been waiting for a long time to see such a plugin. Thanks to the author.

Attachments for content articles
This is the only one component that can let us attach files to article in Joomla! 1.5 contents.

The author is also very talented and active. Thanks to him!

BookLibrary Basic
This is an amphibian like component to display your books. I mean, at one side, it can accept the book infomation entered by you manually; at the other side, it can retrieve the book information automatically from amazon.com, you ONLY need specify the ISBN numer of that book.

The most important thing is, it can implement your Amazon Associate Tag and let you got rewarded if someone click your book link and buy a book from amazon. So you can built a small bookstore in minutes to make money from amazon online bookstore as an affiliate.

We really need a module to list all cagegories inside a section and show the number of how many articles it contains at the same time.

This simple module did it.

Thanks to the author.

Joomler SyntaxHighlighter
I have waited for a long long time to see these features in this plugin: custom line number and copy to clipboard. Now the dream come true.

Thanks to Joomler!.net for offering us such an amazing plugin at no cost.

Joo!BB - Joomla! Bulletin Board
I view JooBB on Joomla! 1.5 as a FireBoard on Joomla! 1.0.x.

JooBB has more features waiting us to explore. I highly recommend Joo!BB to those who won't use a bridge to build forum on Joomla! 1.5.

yvComment
Someone applaud for this commenting component maybe because it is the first one, or the only one at present, commenting component for Joomla! 1.5. But it is not so good. The file and folders structures are similar in component and plugin, which make me very confused when trying to translate it.

The backend parameters are also weird, it ask me to add a Guest User account! I haven't seen such a requirement on any other commenting system.

Second, it is not easy for those who want to allow comments for All his sections. This component has no option for All Section, you must enter the section IDs manually.

I am not satisfied. Hope the author will improve it later.

This review shows, that yvComment is not so simple already, as it was 6 months ago :-)
It may be disappointed for somebody, but one have to read instructions on the Homepage to know how and why something is done...

I call this component the Plug&Play phpMyAdmin. This is very good extension that help us manage the database. This one had ended the painful days of accessing phpMyAdmin by complicated installation or extra links and accounts.

Ok, don't forget to secure the installation folder.

LinkBack
I rated this module 5 stars. It deserves that. This module can help us to know which website/page bring visitors to our website, as a reward, this module will show their link and let people visit them. Great! I think those referer admins also like this.

Community Builder
C.B. is very good. I think it should be the core component of Joomla.

Time Zone Clock
This module can display current time for different time zones.

If you allow to translate the weekday name that will be better.

If display time with Analog clock this will be perfect.

Thanks.
Owner's reply

I'll work on a version to allow translation.

Analog clocks are problematic because they have to be calculated and are much slower.

Vinaora World Time Clock
This module can display a clock as it claimed. But it only shows one clock for one region. I thought it can display several clocks for different time zones just as we saw on the wall in big hotels.

This module also loads very slow since it will try to read some data from another remote server.

Seyret Video
This component make video sharing on our own website possible.

I like this component so much that I had made a Chinese translation for it.

If the author can add more video sharing providers as well as more format to be allowed for uploading, such as .avi, .wmv, .rm, .rmvb, .mov and .mpg, this will be perfect.

eXtplorer
Very great component !

I can't love it more. Yes, I had also made Chinese translation for it.

Now I think you can add a link of Back to Joomla for this new version.

Thank you.

Jobline
This component can publish some job posts. But it is too weak to build a job hunting website. It is only suitable for a small company to post its recruitment ads. It is a pity that it has no CAPTCHA to fight spams.

Even for such a small function, it should has the feature of category. I think it can be improved further to be able to build a job publishing and searching website, whick need detailed categories and advanced search feature.

Random Flash Module
Finally we have this module to show Flash files on the Joomla webpage. I love this one.

But I noticed that this module will resize my flash banner to about 190px wide when the original width was 768.

Maybe it need some reparation.

Anyway, thanks to the author. This is a great one.
Owner's reply

baijianpeng: Are you sure that this is because of the module. Could this be an issue with your template?
