This solved a problem with Joomlas PDF not rendering tables. Now I just create my document in MS Word and convert to PDF and upload it. One short line of code is inserted into my editor with the proper path and "voila".

Thank you so much for this plugin it is wonderful!

I would say that this is a must for anyone having issues with Tables not rendering properly in Joomla PDF.

Better Preview
Very simple to install and use and a big time saver too.

This makes working with Juga soooooo much easier and I absolutely love the full page preview!!

This is a must have for any site.

Advanced Administrator Menu
I was actually searching for something just like this, this weekend.

It installs very easily and works just as advertised!

Thank You so much for this! I have so many components installed and was getting tired of scrolling all the time.

CB user list / CB last users
I am only giving this 4 stars because the avatars did not work for me right after install. I had to contact the developer to get it to work.
But because of the response time and the willingness to help I am changing that to 5 stars.

The developer was great and helped me to get this going within 24 hours. He actually made a new release and sent me an email letting me know with some special instructions which I am passing on to everyone.

4. Add the following line just under the -tag in your template (that’s needed for compatability with ie6&7 and for the avatar-display):

I'll have to admit that I was skeptical when I saw this. Everything I tried to get video to work in CB failed except for using All Videos Reloaded and linking from Youtube.

I just happen to have the Seyret Pro on my site and decided to give it a try.
I installed it through CB Plugin manager and Published the tab and "viola" it works just like it said!

Side Note. I also have CB 1.2 Stable installed and Proma 2.0... No problems at all and best of all it is a FREE plugin.

THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR CB !!!!

CB Profilemanager 3.1
I purchased this during the upgrade from CB RC4 and CB 1.2 Stable and had to wait awhile before the new Stable Release of Proma 2.0 came out that I could use.
It was well worth the wait. This plugin for CB 1.2 is incredible. And I'll have to say that the support is pretty unbelievable too.

I had an post installation issue and posted it in their forums and within 5 minutes had a reply. I ended up having to send my admin. login info. to them and they logged in and got it fixed for me.

As I said in the title, this is a must have plugin for CB. Once you get it you will be wondering how you ever got along without it.

Even if you don't use multiple profiles, just the ability for users to change CB template styles and arrange their own profiles is well worth it.

Kunena
I have a new site and only had a few posts and was running Fireboard 1.0.4
I read the upgrade and the migration posts on the Wiki and just decided to uninstall Fireboard and install Kuenena.

I wasn't real concerened about loosing any posts so I just went for it.

I didn't loose anything. The settings stayed and i kept all my posts.

I very highly recommend this component!! *****

CB Power Search
I purchased this about a month ago and the search portion works for me although I have one issue that the developer ignores. Once the search has finished and the results show, all of the avatars are of a static pic that points offsite. I modified it to where it stays onsite but after several non-responses from the developer via the website and personal email I have decided to write this review.

I am very angry that my emails are not being answered!

I would not recommend this product or any of this developers products to anyone. In fact I highly recommend that you don't! There are no support forums and the developer will not answer emails.

Sorry to hear about the search not even working for the posts below. Send me a IM and I'll see if I can send you my copy where atleast the search works.

Everybody else...
Save your 15 dollars for something else!

Nothing could be easier!

Wimpy MP3 Player For Joomla
I was going to use the module but found that they have a free 15 day trial on the that is not a module. I put it in an I frame and linked it so that it acts like a popup when the link is pressed. I would totally recommend paying the 30 bucks for the full version. You have the option of encrypting the html, buffering, Prevent caching. Playlist can be automatically detected or xml. They also offer a sql version where users can create their own playlist. Couldn't get that one to work becasue of the sql naming convention from my hosting provider.

Joomla Popin Window
It works as advertised! No install problems at all, just install, enable, and place your html in the editor.

don't forget the {popin} tag in your article.

I would have to say that of all the tools that I have downloaded and installed that this one is at the top of my list for timesavers and ease of use!

I have a test site in a sub-domain and need to keep the configuration as close as possible. Well now I can have them exactly the same!

I downloaded the tool yesterday and installed it and performed a backup (really simple). This morning from work I deleted all files in the subdomain and moved the backup file into the subdomain and unzipped it. All that was left to do was access the site from a browser and change permissions on a few directories. Just a few basic screens with basic information to supply and... VIOLA!!!

An exact clone of my main site. This is awesome!!!!!!!

BlastChat
Don't be fooled by what the other guy said about banners and ads and stuff like that. You can turn that stuff off with the click of 2 or 3 radio buttons and put your own stuff there if you want to.

It installs very easily as advertised although I couldn't find any instructions on how to do the setup. Very easy to figure out. I was half asleep when I did it!
I wanted a chat localized to my website and didn't want to be hooked into a global chat and only wanted my registered users to have access to. It accomplished exactly what I wanted.

I finally figured out that you have to create a new menu item for it to be displayed. Couldn't find a plugin or module after the install!

Anyway, It has been working very nicely without a problem. Finally, a chat component for 1.5

ChronoForms
I really, really like this app. I have been using Jommla for about a month now and before that did everything the hard way, by trial and error.

No more having to get and configure a cgi application to handle the form for email. yeah!!!

Anyway, it installed beautifully. I went to the website and watched the video once. Then opened up Frontpage and created my form and then copied and pasted and it works.

There are a lot of advanced options that I am sure I will never need and have no desire to learn but for basic functionality I give it 6 stars.

Ulti Counter
It's not anything fancy but it gets the job done. No issues with it installing or anything. Configuration is all done from the Module properties.

Nice Job!!

JoomlaWatch
Iknow, I know, I did read all about it first and saw that there were issues with the program for 1.5 before I installed it. As usual, I figured I would be one of the lucky ones that it worked for.

Unfortunatly, I wasn't!!

It installed fine with on problems and I did make sure that Legacy was enabled before the install. As I said, it installed fine and then I went to configure the module and BOOM... "big blank white screen". Loaded the frontpage of the website BOOM.. "Big blank white screen"

Disabled the module and the website came back up then I uninstalled it!

I'll keep checking back for a stable version. Looks like a great product in the Demo.
Owner's reply

Hi, I'm really sorry, what happened. Many registered users downloaded 1.2.4 and no-one complained about anything, so I announced it here. One user unfortunatelly asked me to change the retrieving of the live site with &cmsInstance('CMSCore') which worked for him, but not the rest of the users.

Seyret Video
Even though this says that it's only for Joomla 1.0 if you go to the website they have a beta version for 1.5 for download. I installed it last night and this is totally awesome!!!

I will be upgrading to the pro version very soon!!

Awesome job:-)

JoomlaFCK Editor (Security Release)
I have been using Joomla for approx. 1 week and installed the JoomlaFCK editor after reading these reviews. I is so much better than the one that came with the program. I really like the fact that when you insert a picture you can see it rather than having to remember the path.

There only a couple of things I have found that I don't like is that the "Read More" button does not function in IE7. I does however work in Firefox so, problem solved. The other is that the editor background takes on the color of the Template background.
