There are a few extensions out there like this one, but this one is free! There is no way to turn off the title rewriting, but I handle that by making sure my plugin order leaves this one before my preferred plugin for titles.

Google Maps Multipage
This seems to be a nice component, but I can't figure out how to get my users automatically mapped. I've configured everything so that it makes sense to me that it should work, complete with coordinates in the profile, but it's not putting users on any map that I can find. With a lack of documentation and any other sort of support, I have to give a relatively low rating.

JUGA
This is very good for controlling back-end access, even with the free trial version. I recommend noix to add access levels to control access on the front end.

noixACL
This seems really good for adding access levels for front-end access control. For back-end access control, I suggest JUGA.

Warning: This can be very complicated if you do more than add more access levels

Vivociti Social Bookmark
The download link goes to the module.

The plugin has no icons, and shows the text name of the service. So the list of names scrolls way of to the right.

There is no configuration to allow removal of services. In fact, there is no configuration at all.

ccQuery
It's very nice for querying, but won't update (as advertised), and won't produce errors when it fails to update, to tell me what's wrong. I've checked and rechecked my syntax, and the query is correct; just nothing happens.

I've googled and searched the publisher's site, receiving no answers to the issue.

Also doesn't discriminate who uses it; anyone on the backend can use this component out of the box. When installing it I entered a block of code to kick out anyone who isn't a Super Administrator to keep people from doing major damage to the DB.

JEvents
Links to add and edit content are in a strange place... it would be better placed in a menu using standard menu classes used from the main style sheet.

Lots of customization options, including its own CSS! That's impressive. A disappointing selection of attribute values though... odd non-neutral colors and a calendar that doesn't stretch to width.

Category management is sort of confusing, since it uses its own categories a user can get confused with jooma categories.

This would be a great component if it allowed frontend content manipulation.

Overall this calendar extension is better than all the others I've seen.

JCK Editor
This one seems decent, and I like source mode, and how it doesn't mess with my code as much as TinyMCE. But it still messes with my code. When I try to use a hack, or sometimes even something mainstream (I can normally find a workaround for this though) it deletes it. Twerp said this is the only one that doesn't mess with code... IT'S NOT TRUE! Can I just get an editor that records what I type?
