Simplest Forum
Your forum is true to its name. Simple to install and use. With some template tweeks it fits right into my site.

Unfortunately the language files were not synchronized with the latest version, and is translation file for JoomFish missing (at least I didn''t see it).

Still I like the simplicity. Thanks for your work.

p8 Twitter
After being dissatisfied with the standard Twitter widgets, I was very happy to find this extension. It allows me to integrate my tweets in a very easy and straigtforward way with my Joomla site. It worked almost* immediately out of the box and offers many features (like search) which I haven't tried yet.

Because it being a true Joomla 1.5 extension, I was able to modify the template easily to meet my personal taste and desires for showing / not showing specific information.

Suggestion is to make the template(s) (I only use one) more easy to configure. For example, the component fetches the URL from Twitter which happens to be - in my case - the URL to my Joomla site. I had expected the standard URL to be used behind the thumbnails to be the URL to Twitter page.



*I say almost, because the following message appeared.
Warning: curl_setopt() [function.curl-setopt]: CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION cannot be activated when in safe_mode or an open_basedir is set in /usr/home/deb18940/domains/naastniels.nl/public_html/components/com_p8twitter/libs/class.twitter.php on line 457

I had to remove one line of code to solve that problem.
