I downloaded the RSQuote but have not been able to get it work with the database as it should.

Here are my observations:
1) The db quotes does not load.

2) Apart from the db not loading the quote in the frontend module is unpublishing itself which means when you add a quote in the component for the category, it is unpublishing itself even if you select publish and save.

3) In addition, the quote title does not display even when the txt quote which works unlike the db quote, is selected.

Based on the various submissions on the developer's forum, one would have thought that the latest version fixed all the known bugs, but that does not appear to be so.

This extension is definitely very promising if all known bug can be addressed and fixed.

I will advise the developer to check the latest version and fix known bugs.

I honestly will have given this component 5 stars! The only problem is that it doesn't have a module or plugin to accompany the component. It will be hard to convince site visitors to look for and click a menu link before they can recommend your site to their friends. The site owner is the one that needs the favor of their site visitors, so the Recommend component should make it easy for visitors to recommend their friends.

So please come up with an accompanying plugin and module that will make this wonderful component a 5 star joomla extension.

I installed this extension, but did not find it to work. I am thinking this is because I have sh404SEF enabled.

Honestly speaking, no matter how fantastic this product is, how can first-time users get value out of it, if they don't have a clue how to use the extension. Yes, agreed, great features, but of what use if there are no idea on using it???

The developers are charging for documentation and tutorial but the product is "free" to download. Well, great way to attract people to download the extension and then get stuck with using it unless they subscribe and pay the $45/yr membership fee.
