This worked in 5 seconds. Installed it. Enabled the plugin.
Choose a "Get" word and then the site is hidden to everyone except those who know the "Get" word. Can have multiple Get words for different people. Or can use a static ip as access to the development site. These are just a few of the features. You can have a custom HTML page -- but I chose the default page.
Bravo!
Encouraged by the reviews I installed this one. Worked real nicely. You upload your images to the module's image directory and then, within the module choose which images you want and what order, as well as an overall transition.
Thanks for this well thought through module.

I installed SP Upgrade on my development server. Did the easy configuration to import the data and database from the old site. And pushed the button and within minutes my site was migrated to my development server.
What would have taken days took minutes!
Highly recommended by Rowby!!
I scrambled to the Joomla Extensions site, hoping to find a true find and replace that would make changes in the mysql database.
And I found this GEM! Works really nice with a preview of what you are replacing.
I easily replaced one YouTube video ID with the new one. In seconds!
Of course you should backup your database first because we all know what surprises can happen when we do a find and replace. I use good old Akeeba Backup to to the backup first and then I ran DB Replacer.
This gem is an example of the great open source extensions that us end users need to thank talented developers, such as NoNumber -- the author of this valuable Joomla component.

This one is perfect. Very easy to use. All kinds of useful configurations.
I was especially impressed with the extension's built-in, easy to follow documentation. No need to have to find the website to get the essential documentation.
In my case I got it working in about 4 minutes.
Looks great!

It would have taken my hours to make the changes.
With this component I put the HTML that I wanted to change in the "top box" and the replacement HTML in the bottom box. I hit the button and in seconds my mysql database was updated.
I've looked for a component like this for years, for Joomla. It arrived here in the extensions library just when I needed it!
Highly recommended!

The module itself has built in documentation right within the module. There is a link right in the module to the website for further help.
And the module is elegantly designed for both a newbie who may not understand xml, and for the advanced user who is comfortable in xml.
Bravo.

Also great is you can set your image as a background image if you want. That is really cool!
And, keep in mind, you don't have to use this only for headers. You can use it for any image where you would like the flexibility (such as easily making your image a background image) that Flexheader3 provides.
Bravo to Andre.

I needed to add a nofollow tag to some individual articles (I didn't want to have a global nofollow tag). With this plugin activated I put the following in my certain individual articles:
{tag}{/tag} -- and, PRESTO!, after saving the article in the source code was

Installed this module, pasted in the javascript -- it didn't mess up the code -- worked perfectly.
You need this simple but perfect module in your Joomla bag of tricks.
Thanks, Developer!

Jaja Rowby when you need it, you love it!
Thanks
I considered doing a seach and replace via the exported mysql file. But I didn't want to take that drastic step. I remembered seeing this plugin and downloaded it. Installed it in 2 minutes and 5 minutes later the global change was finished.
Now I can goof off the rest of the day!
Thanks, ReReplacer and all of the incredible Joomla Open Source developers for giving us great tools like this gem!

I'm using it for one site, and have another site where my client needs to put in some specific content on many pages. Now the client can just select the generic snippet from the menu and paste it in -- no mistakes, no spelling errors, etc.
I am using the Joomla Modal setting in the plugin because the Slimbox had a small conflict.
Important: If all you see is a link instead of a thumbnail, just use JoomlaXplorer or similar component to change the thumbnail component to writable.

Even more terrific is the incredible support. Submit a ticket and the response is quick.
And they listen to users suggestions. I made a suggestion and two days later it was incorporated into their latest update. It was not a simple suggestion and I am sure it required some serious programming.
I rated this component Excellent. I would rate it even higher if it was possible. Excellemente!

Then do yourself a favor and get this component. It is soooo much easier to use. You just create your form in Dreamweaver or similar web program and copy and paste the html into the admin panel. (Design it any way you want, using tables, or whatever you like.)
Being used to creating my forms in Dreamweaver, ChronoForms is SOOOOO much ESASIER than all of the other components I've used here in the Joomla extension library. And it's free.
One thing to keep in mind. When linking to the ChronoForm in the Joomla menu system, use the URL link (not the component link). Use this example link index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=myformname (replace "myformname" with the name of the form you have given it in the ChronoForm admin panel.)
As they say on the net, CHEERS and LOL!
