The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

There are so many positive reviews here that I wasn't going to bother writing anything. I just came back (after a few months) to vote it a five and leave.

Anything I could say was very well summed up by the post below labeled 'Not bad at all'. It's bang on the money. ccboard is not magic, it has a few rough edges, but it's reliable, simple to use and configure and looks decent. What more could you want? I believe their devs will grow it into a serious contender against anything you might currently want a bridge for. It's native, it's sef-seo, likes joomsocial, cb et alia. Don't hesitate to give it a spin.

The reason I write this is only to counter the lone 1 star reviewer complaining that it didn't support his unusual light on dark font schema out of the box. ccboard has a very convenient tab for editing its css built right into it! I didn't need to use it, but it's there and easily accessible on first glance.

I've been using chronoforms for a few weeks now and just had to come back here to add yet another positive review to the list. All the good things people have written in the reviews below are true. Solid 5 stars.

You *can* use it to make validated forms, emails and data storage with just a few clicks, but it *also* allows you to easily add gobs of your own php and js.

I originally installed it simply because I wanted to have a back-end integrated with joomla for the user -- and didn't want to try and write my own component. I got far more than I expected.

If I had to choose something to nit-pick about, it would be that the size of the edit boxes in the back-end are a bit small if you are writing a lot of code. To get around that I mirror the form code in my regular text editor where I'm happier anyway. I don't think this would be even a concern for most people though, so do not let this minor niggle stop you from installing it.

I think the fact that I had to really stretch there to find something to complain about should say something to you as a prospective user.

Finally, their forum is quite a busy place (another good sign), but Bob and Max are still very quick to respond.

Some of the comments here don't see to be fair to this component at all. The v2.2.2 stable version works perfectly under J1.5 with legacy support turned on.

Perhaps some of the more negative reviewers were playing with the *release candidates*? Those do have problems with j1.5, but that's why they are labeled rc1, rc2 etc. I imagine. They're just not ready yet.

I'm very happy with v2.2.2 as it suits our little ski club perfectly. I'd give it a 5 if it was j1.5 native, but it certainly deserves a solid 4 stars. Thanks for the nice addon Thomas.

I first tried to use the v1.0 module on an old joomla site that I never got around to updating and denvideo worked, but generated errors on refreshing the page. Like I said, old site and the denvideo version for joomla1.x is old too.

However, the plugin/mambot for joomla1.x is fully up-to-date, so I gave that a spin instead. Works perfectly.

1) upload an flv into /images/stories
2) module --> New
3) ensure include mambots is turned on
4) custom content is just one centered line of two words!
{denvideo somename.flv}
That's it!

You can set default width, ht and autoplay or not in the mambot itself,so you don't have to keep typing it.

I love simple things that 'just work'. Great job, thank-you.

Not much to review when the thing simply works! :-)
Thanks very much for this. Oh - and yes, nice touch in the backend with the note in parameters on usage.
