This module worked perfect for me. I wanted to display a random video out of a group that I wanted to control. Using the AllVideoReloaded Plug-In and the RandomAnything Module, I got exactly what I wanted.

Installed like a breeze, did exactly what it was suppose to do. Right off the top let me know that J!1.5.9 was out, which I hadn't noticed yet. It linked me right to the download page so I didn't have to surf around looking for the update. The 3rd party component checking device doesn't list what the most current version is, but it does link what version I have and provide a link to the developers home page, making updating much easier. The checks of the file system and joomla core system pointed out permission errors and security enhancements I could make (and did). This is probably the best COM I've downloaded in 6 months.

This is a great start.

First, everything in this component works as it says it will. I like that.. installed and working in under 5 minutes.

For a personal blog, this is fantastic.. I set up a "myblog@myurl.com" email address on the server.. and from my phone I can send a text message/email to my email address and get my blog items ready on the fly.

BUT I have a wish list..

1.) There needs to be some kind of cron job or automatic routine so that articles which are emailed in can be posted automatically.

2.) There needs to be a way to delete the email/article from the "viewed content" screen. Once I import the email and it gets posted, it needs to disappear from the view content screen.

3.) An option should be available to delete email from email server upon import.

4.) There needs to be a way for different articles to be submitted to different sections/categories. Towards this I'd recommend a way to set different mailboxes to different section/categories. That was, if I send an email to news@myurl.com - it goes into the news category.. but if I send an email to sports@myurl.com - it goes into the sports category. I would think that would be an easy fix/upgrade to the next release.

I can't believe that this isn't a more popular module.

If you have vBulletin, you gotta have this module to drive traffic into your forums.

Joo!BB - Joomla! Bulletin Board
This forum looks like it has some real potential.

A fully integrated forum for Joomla.. no bridges, no wraps, just install and run.

It needs to be dressed up and made pretty.. but it seems to work fantastic.

The set up is easy, the roll out is easy. There is no method to edit the layout, my template needs a way to set the module suffix code and the module doesn't even offer this parameter variable.
