The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

This is a really nice little module, quick and simple to install and configure. I like the fact you can assign each map an id (allows you to add more than one to a page and apply different css easily). I also like the fact you don't need to mess around with API Keys. Thanks for this!

Took me a little while to get the hang of this, but now that I have done I feel I should write and give the author a pair of thumbs up. This is just what I was looking for and it's working perfectly.

One gotcha which had me digging around in the code when I didn't need to was that I'd forgotten to publish the user plugin. D'oh! The component flags config errors with the associated modules, but not the plugin, so watch for that one.

Good work!

This is an excellent extension. For small sites you can quickly and easily set up a simple contact form with various Captcha options. Larger sites can have multiple contact forms for different contacts, all highly customisable on an individual basis.

Logs the contacts too, which is a nice feature. There are free extensions for this which I've used but for the money you should just buy this and be done with it. Pages of 5* reviews say it all really.

I had such a horrendous time with a Virtuemart installation that I moved away from Joomla based e-commerce components altogether. However I use Joomla a lot and really wanted the ability to have an integrated shop that was beefier than the JS cart solutions.

Well done to Tienda, as far as I'm concerned they've filled a gaping hole in the market here.

The backend reminds me of Magento in lots of ways, as does Dioscouri's whole business model. The extension is excellent. Perfect for a medium sized shop when you need to get things up and running quite quickly and inexpensively.

Why only 4 stars? Well I'd like to see more payment gateways supported, and also alternative shipping modules. There were some bugs (ie rounding errors etc), and some functionality which should really have been there but wasn't (ie you can display product prices inclusive of VAT in the shop but not in the cart - that requires custom work).

It is still in development though and the issues are being actively worked on. As far as I'm concerned it's ready to be used commercially and I hope the team that wrote it do very well out of it - they deserve to.

I'm actually amazed and a bit disappointed that there are not more positive reviews here for this component - the support forums for it are littered with people saying how good they think it is.

I am one of them, this is an excellent Joomla! component and if you need to implement recruitment functions on your site then you should be seriously considering it.

The component itself offers complex functionality, and there are numerous extra modules that can be downloaded for nothing which integrate with the main component. You can pick and choose which functions you want to use - for example, my client isn't planning to use the Partners or Client functions yet, but might do further down the line.

The site I've just completed operated slightly differently from the RAM demo site - however the code was well structured, well commented and the variables sensibly named etc. I'm no PHP wondergod by any stretch of the imagination, but I managed to convert it to match my own spec. fairly easily. Partly this was because there are already so many things it can do, so with a bit of imagination you can juggle them around to achieve what you want.

Support seems very good, there are no unanswered threads in the forums and the developer jumps on top of any bugs which crop up (which, to be fair, are normally oddball little things as it's a fairly mature component). Documentation is there for it, I'd suggest you read it.

All in all a great bit of work and I'm very glad I bought it. Well done.
