The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

Thank you for taking the time to review this extension on the JED, we do appreciate all comments we receive.

Firstly, there are many settings and features which we have removed or adapted from the previous version of this extension because they were no longer required in Joomla! 1.7 which is very different to the system that Bookmarks was originally written for (originally 1.0.x and then migrated to 1.5.x).

We have also completely re-written the configuration screens to make it a much easier process for the end user, as previously many settings were unclear, cumbersome, and difficult to understand what they actually did.

Several features are now only available in the Pro version.

Secondly, if you had problems with installing the extension or any issues with features not being present, the appropriate method to raise these issues, questions and feature requests is via our support forum, and not by writing a review on the JED without requesting support first.

As you will know if you visit the forum, throughout the migration and re-write of this extension we have been taking on and acting upon feedback from people who have used Bookmarks and we are in the process of implementing many more feature requests, but our early focus has been on releasing a stable version which can be used in production sites, rather than adding every single feature that has been requested. This is not actually the first version of this extension, we have been through several alpha, beta and release candidate versions prior to this release.

We have recently made available a new release of the Pro version which fixes the installation error, and the free version should be available either this evening or tomorrow morning.

I hope this answers some of the issues you have raised, and I look forward to receiving your suggestions for the features which you need that are currently missing.
