Anyone looking to manage and offer any kind of documents, with complete control, should look at Docman

Hi. The coding for JoomD is strictly written in pure MVC structure and using Joomla functions. No custom PHP coding has been used. You should have given a good look at it before you wrote the review.
The dedicated support for JoomD is now available again. Apologies for all the inconveniences and pain you have had to go through.
We are also releasing the new version of JoomD next month with more advanced features and bug fixes.
We were going through some staffing shortage. We now have acquired sufficient staffing to take care of customer queries.
Apologies again and thanks for choosing to continue with us.

Otherwise, it looks in a class of its own.

Sorry, the 5 days of traveling for JandBeyond with strikes of air controls in Portigal screwed up our timings but we are catching all up already. Probably you already were answered.

Plus, it doesn't have much bloat or links back to the author. It just flat out works. yay

Take a peek at the open-source forum (1700+ posts) about this product and j1.5. You will see it has given a few people headaches.
Personally, nothing worked right off the bat, but digging around for awhile got me to get it in working order. In my opinion, the whole extension is overthought and doesn't need to be that complicated. The developer responds well and it is good to see a lively extension such as this, but don't expect to extract and publish a couple of plugins and expect it to work.

The short explanation of why yvComment is not "plug and play" from Your point of view is this:
yvComment is tightly coupled with Joomla core hence it depends on many setting of Joomla core, e.g. related to User permissions/access levels, Category for Comments etc. This is why you have to read documentation, understand Joomla AND set that necessary Joomla core settings to have yvComment work properly at your site.
BTW, I always have feelings similar to yours when I'm installing CB - one of the most popular Joomla extensions...

Plus, the forum is very active. If you care about taking care of your duplicate content issues, you have to try this extension.
It is a great premise, and it does work without sh404, (granted some hidden tricks you must know if using cPanel - and a release version found inline in a post, not on the download pages).
Part of the premise of Open Source is plug and play, but if it doesn't play nice, it turns open source to open sores.

In our feature list is not declared, that VD will work with all other extensions. We have developed VD for our own needs. We do not ask for money. We share our code with others. We are happy if others are willing to develop further our work. This is the principle of free software (which means more than just open source).

Also, it is super powerful. My site is really going to stand out because of this component.
An appropriate representation of the requested resource....
You can't delete sitemaps, the menu titles generated aren't from the menu manager, If you try to make a different sitemap default it spits out another white-screen error. No help on the forums. Disappointed. I hope to see a working version in 1.7 soon as the ones in 1.5 worked fine for me.

That being said, the only drawback I can tell have to do with the new version and 1.7. There is no auto-template creator for the new version (email template for mailback) and also the radio / checkboxes don't show vertically by default. But it is easy to go in and edit the code.

Plus, I've noticed some bugs in 2.4 in Joomla1.7.
I'd say go ahead and use it, only if you don't want to modify it too much

a.) redirected to some post that is irrelevant
b.) Asked to provide more details of your setup which in some cases is irrelevant
c.) Get a snotty response that will belittle you
d.) Stump everyone and have your post sit there for 3 months
I don't write many reviews, but I'd honestly recommend looking at other options if I were you. Plus, you'd probably be stuck at J1.5 ( I don't dare try the new version, for obvious reasons)

I noticed that the articles show in the form of it's own SEF URL, and the big no-no is that it doesn't even append the current page's Itemid, hence when clicking on an article it shows it on a page set to no menu id, making it very difficult to style on certain templates.
To try and solve this issue I went to the support forum. It was all Spanish, but I had a translating app, so no biggy. But I couldn't even make an account with Facebook, or log-in, and the page stalled out twice on me.
I recommend it, but as long as you are aware that the articles that show when clicked in the module will display in a way that you can not attach modules to it (no Itemid)
Owner's reply
The module uses the default method of Joomla to get the article URL:
JRoute::_(ContentHelperRoute::getArticleRoute(id, catid))
And Joomla gives the url (with SEF).
Maybe the problem is that you use a 3rd party component for make the SEF URLs.
You can look how it works in the demo page.
