Rapid Contact
Straightforward to install and set up, within 5 minutes of download I'd tested and received the email.

Tried the recaptcha version afterwards but couldn't get it to work so ditched it in favour of the official release. As this is an independent creation it would be nice if the two developers could work together and make it official for us (please).

Great extension - thanks!

Golf Course Guide
Read the other review and thought it might have been fixed by now... if anyone has got it up and running I'd be interested to know how?

Back end looks great but a complete waste of 2 hours trying to figure out why nothing saves and appears on the front end (apart from initial category)

Support forum is full of error reports with the Admin reply "I'll check" - that's it!!

Av PHPBB3 Last Topics
Did what it says it could do and very easy to implement however I couldn't find any way to limit the display or change text size.

It therefore broke my layout and was quickly removed. Would probably look at it again when more developed.

BIGSHOT Google Analytics
Quick and easy to install and thanks to other reviewers the google code was not difficult to add = UA******* is all that's needed.

Checked the pages and it appears exactly as described - excellent start !!

The "instructions" could be clearer on the installation page and after some searching around I finally found them at:

JoomlaWatch
Left it installed for over 2 weeks and the information it was giving was total nonsense. Every day it reports differently to my server stats.

I then try it real time - I know visitors are there because I IRC them to test it. No sign of them - even tomorrow, yet they are in my server logs following day.

Will try something a bit easier to understand.

Hi, this might be because you didn't have the correct timezone of your joomla system or user. If you didn't see any visitors, also in Live Stats module, you probably didn't have the essential joomlawatch agent installed and published in frontend. There is an installation video how to do that. Even though many people use this extension without issues like this one, I will try to make things even more clear and user-friendly in upcoming version.
