The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

This is SUPER! Very configurable - CSS and other customization is right there in the plugin parameters; no need to hack files. The only thing I noticed that could be a problem is that in a narrow window it hid behind my right column. Because the CSS was right there it was easy to fix (z-index: 89;).

One more thing: My template has a "Go to Top" link in it, but it wouldn't work with the Slider extension. (My template "Go to Top" link kept setting up a link like '.../page#last-slide-name#top'. Since that anchor didn't exist, the link went nowhere.) "Top of the Page" works perfectly every time - even with Slider links open or closed.

THANK YOU and GOD BLESS!

I've tried and used a lot of extensions - some excellent, some good, some worthless or worse. This one deserves 6 stars out of 5!

Super easy to use and IT WORKS! Download, install, go to Plugin Manager, enter your site address, CHECK it, enable it, and you're done! It only takes a minute or two - really!

Most importantly, it accomplished what the rewritecond and rewriterule in .htaccess didn't - got the "www" out of my site links. (Yes, in most cases the .htaccess was written correctly - copied and pasted, double-checked against other sources.)

It is very important to do the Check, though. The plugin found a couple sites where I had configured the .htaccess rewrite incorrectly (was rewriting TO "www" rather than to the non-www address). If you do the Check, I'd say it's pretty much "fool" proof - even for me. ;)

Thanks for making it available ... and for FREE!

Hope there will be a 1.6/1.7 and 2.5 version of this coming soon.

I needed a way to put the Simple Picture Slideshow Plugin in a module and I'd already tried the other option (not bad, just didn't fit my needs). This one was easy to use and worked perfectly! THANKS!!!

I've been using AcyMailing for several months after looking at many other mass mail systems and trying several (including commercial ones).

AcyMailing is hands down THE BEST!

The starter version is FREE and it's loaded with far more features than most commercial versions!

It's VERY customizable (e.g. making a template that matches your site, or several templates for different lists) and configurable (e.g. throttling according to your host's requirements). Some knowledge of HTML will help when customizing templates, but they give you some good tools to work with.

Some people will find that there's a "learning curve" figuring everything out. (Full disclosure - I didn't read much of the documentation; I'm a "hands on" type. They do have lots of documentation and tutorials, and include "Help" information on every page.) Let's face it: Mass mail customized to your particular needs takes some effort on your part. Believe me, the results are worth the effort.

It installs quickly and flawlessly - including updates.

Their service and support are awesome! When I first started using it, the unsubscribe page seemed confusing. I contacted them and they quickly sent a temporary fix; then included that in the next release. I recently requested a new feature - not knowing how hard it might be to implement. The staff quickly responded that it was a good feature to add and that they would do so. That was only a few days ago and it's in the new release today!

AcyMailing statistics are amazing! You can easily find out not only how many people opened your mail, but who and when. Where else can you get that kind of information without paying a hefty price?

AcyMailing Starter is PROFESSIONAL all the way (except you don't have to pay the professional price).

Thank you, AcyMailing Team! 5+ stars!

Very good, basic tooltip extension. Easy to install and use.

As advertised, it allows for links and other html code (e.g. images) within the tooltip text - great feature!

The other thing I'd really like to see is if it could automatically adjust the box width, or if I could set the box width (using a css style?) for each occurrence to adjust for very short or very lengthy text, special locations, etc.

I have no idea how difficult that would be to implement and it's NOT a complaint! Just a suggestion if you're considering future editions.

THANKS for a great, FREE extension!

Wish I'd found this before trying several other mods. This one works!

It's easy to use; instructions are included.

It allows CSS styling.

It allows me to enter html to add a link. (I put the link under the author.)

Thank you!

This extension displays articles using a list (li) format and strips all other format coding including alignment, links, bold, etc. Maybe I'm trying to do something this extension wasn't intended for, but I believe my attempts should be within its advertised scope (displaying an article).

I'm trying to display a series of quotes at random.

Problems encountered:
1) It does not have an option to turn off (hide) the title of the article. (I was able to overcome that with a little css trickery.)

2) It strips all formatting (alignment, line breaks, bold, italic, etc.) within the article.

3) It does not display links in the article (even if I eliminate my css trickery to hide the title link). Link references are stripped.

4) It would be nice to have an option to turn off the list dot and indentation on the left. (This can also be overcome with css.)

It does a good job of randomly showing the articles. If the above problems were addressed - particularly #2 & 3 (formatting issues), this would be a very useful extension.

This was amazingly FAST and EASY!!! Installed the mod, entered the info, and it worked PERFECTLY!

The only thing I didn't get right the first time was changing "window" to "transparent."

Less than 5 minutes from download to a working flash element!

Thank you!!!
