Excellent. Great Job. Very little to say apart from that. Oh yes very configurable and light too . The CSS part is a breeze add cursors or what ever you want .

Thank you developer

Thank you for your kind words.

I wanted to provide that seamless experience, with all of the flexibility I required when implementing it in my own projects. Everything needed to be customizable! I'm glad it works for you and everyone who's given positive reviews (and even those who haven't)

Silly of me to think Gavick would not have upgraded to 1.7.!

The reason I write this review is for primarily 2 reasons:
1st- Gavick as usual has produced an outstanding extension.As usual. :)

2nd- I want to request all developers (this is not a reflection on our Developers Abilities, they are very talented and dedicated, full stop.)to get moving and get abreast of Joomla 1.6 and 1.7.Fact of the matter is that 1.6 / 1.7 compatible extensions represent a minuscule percentage of the available extensions.

Request the Moderator to let this review pass with the 2nd point included. Thank you

cheers

CoolFeed
CoolFeed is way beyond cool, way beyond "awesome" and other such insipid adjectives.

It's just plain and simple perfect.

The back end has some nifty options that offer fantastic parameters for both the novice and advanced user.

The menu option and content option (via simple syntax) are a refreshing departure from the usual components out there.

Does not seem to be putting my server under pressure, light weight Yes.

Feed collection is intuitive and very very accurate.Thank you developer.

While most extension developers for Joomla 1.6 seem to have a lot of catching up to do (this is not a reflection on their abilities or anything but just a fact). This developer is abreast of events and most importantly the support is just Fantastic.

Once again Thank you Developer. This is one of the better 1.6 / 1.7 extensions out there.

All the very best

Neat. Packs the power of a full fledged component into a Niffy Module.

This is indeed a very well designed module.I agree with the earlier reviewer, a lot of thought has gone into this.

Matches with your template seamlessly, really no need of any CSS knowledge. The "Basic Options" of the module take care of all the minor details for you.

Great job Ben Van Bokkem.
Thank you

My RSS Reader
Months of hard labor and eventually I found the Perfect RSS component . Thank you developer. Great Job Done.

Works out of the box. In testing mode I really tried to push this component with 700 + feeds Worked like a charm, no hitch no glitch.

Thank you

JComments
This is undoubtedly the best commenting system in Joomla. I was using this on three sites.

Unfortunately I have had to remove it from ALL my sites because of a very very strange issue with Internet Explorer.

The problem is NOT with this beautiful extension but with IE - Because of IE I had to remove this extension I feel sad to have removed it .

The problem on IE is that you get an "Operation Aborted , internet explorer can not load this page" message. IE SUKs!

However on visiting the developers forum I see that the developer is trying very hard to give excellent support to every body - Good Job There.

But if you are using multiple templates like my sites do then you may find it very difficult go get a sensible work around the IE problem.

The day IE dies I will be using this on all my sites again.

Congratulations to the developer - You have an excellent component here. You support is timely , prompt and you find solutions.

Thank you.

The unfortunately developers site does not have a "Support " Link because I am very keen to support this product.

Thank You Again. Happy New Year

Though I have had to remove this component I still give you 5 stars.

I am very sorry that you had to remove JComments. Indeed, with some Joomla templates, this problem happens with IE. And I have no universal solution at this moment. But let's try to solve the problem with your template? Contact me at the forum and send me a copy of your template, and I will try to find the cause of this error.

This works out of the box, just as described .I use this on 3 sites, easy to install and deploy. Setting the word limit is an excellent feature.

Yes agreed with the earlier reviewer, this is not a twitter but I guess you can "position" it as your sites Personal Twitter !!

The developer has asked for "Suggestions", goes :

Could you please integrate a "quick reply " system too ? We must be able to set the number of words in the reply too .

I notice that you are working on a rating system that will be fantastic.

Integrating the above two into this tool will make this unbeatable.

I am not a developer but I am sure it must be difficult to integrate a quick reply . But it must be done.

All in All Excellent
