Wow, this author really went the long green mile for Joomla fans.

I tried 3 others and kept getting disappointed when things I'd try did not work (I have implemented about 35 Joomla sites over the last 5 years, so yes, I know how to clear cache) or did NOT really do what what the author programmed, or did not "really" work with J1.7.

This is a great module: Plethora of Options! And great CSS control!

Blog Calendar Reload
I like this so far... it definitely fills a void, that WordPress does well: Blog Posts and a link to them by month.

I used jSeblod CCK to create a blog content type + Jcomments (or other).

My only complaint so far is the CSS built by the component, but I don't think it's the author's fault.

e.g. I want to edit the date displayed in the H3 tag within td.contentheading -- as I don't want the date above each article in the component area.

Additionally, it seems redundant as the module has a parameter for 'Show Created Date'.

Q Gallery
Installs easy enough... but when I went to test the simplest item: Importing photos to an album I had just created (NEW), the New album was not listed in the drop-down choice. Interface then offers for me to create an album, so I named it TEST, and tried. I got:

Error: You must select an album to import.
ARrgh!

So then I click the link named '0 Pictures' next to the NEW album I first created. It import the picture, but it is not associated with the NEW album.

Seems like a good component that was designed for the casual user, but the two task above were NOT successful. I have tried well over 150 Joomla components, mod, plugins, so it ain't me. Test with Mac OS/X and FF3.
Owner's reply

You need create new album before import one album from facebook, Qgallery is just support to import from one album to one.

DTRegFieldStats for DT Register
The module is a simple at a glance tally of your event registrants.

Author if very responsive developer. So far so good.

Be great if it allowed you to pre-select the event in the module parameters.

YOOtooltip
Overall it's a clean polished plugin. It only works in articles -- not modules. Unless you set it an article first, then copy the page source and place in a module with your Joomla WYSIWYG Editor turned OFF.

It would be nice to add a direction parameter so, that tooltips appear below a link... then you could use this at the top of your template -- otherwise it goes off-screen. Otherwise, these guys do great work.

Standalone Accordion Menu
The author went to the wall for you here. He put in everything you'd need to make this work, states active, hover, sub-menu CSS. Worked more easily than F2 Accordion which does not provide active state CSS. thx

Core Design Glossary plugin
What can you say works out of the box. Ok if you're a newbie you define your terms inside the Mambot itself -- not on your page. I'd give this an excellent rating if there were a wee bit more documentation and an easy for my client to add their terms themselves. And wouldn't it be nice... (don't mean to sound like Beach Boys here) ... if there were admin interface for the term records, but did the author say, FREE! ~cubefree
