The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

After spending money on one blog component, that didn't work or meet my needs, and trying out several more, I decided to try out EasyBlog. Boy am I happy with my decision. I integrated beautifully with my site, and community component, editors and more, has the same look and feel, that will keep my users engaged, and is easy to use. Had a small issue after installing, and support responded quickly with the solution that I could apply now with a fix for the next release. Th

Ok, so after using Joomla and Wordpress separately, I was glad to see that there was a application that allowed me to integrate the 2 easily. Unfortunately, I don't believe that 3.0 is ready for Joomla 1.6. Keep in mind, that I have installed Wordpress Multiuser (MU) multiple times successfully, and have been working with Joomla and Wordpress for years. The Wordpress MU in this integration just didn't work the way I expected to. After spending several weeks trying to troubleshoot why MU wasn't installing correctly, I got support involved. The support level is slow, so don't open a ticket and expect an immediate response, because you will be disappointed. Support took a week in a half to troubleshoot my issue, asking for bits of information every day, information that was provided when initially opening the ticket. They finally concluded that the problem was my server configurations. Keep in mind, this server has multiple installs of Joomla as well as Wordpress in standalone environments, running without a hitch. The install that was provided to support was a clean install of Joomla 1.6, with Wordpress installed and waiting for MU to be activated.
There is a no refund policy on the $69.99 you will spend for this component, so be sure that it is what you want. I’m looking at this as a lesson learned.
The good news is, if you are using this for a single blog on your site, you shouldn’t have any problems.

Finally a commenting system that's free, doesn;t look amateurist and works. Good Job!
