The Joomla! Extensions Directory ™

I have spent alot of time reviewing Extensions that give me a view (on my website) of the Facebook page that my group use, so everyone can see all the posts and comments without having to go to Facebook. The problem I have always found is the formatting of the posts is always poor.

This Extension completely rewrites the book on that ascertion - It provides excellent options to changing the colours, format, size and options that are required.
Additionally, when you buy the extension, you get excellent support from the Mridul (developer) as well - He is keen to work with you when you identify improvements or changes and provides prompt and skilled updates as necessary.

I have proposed improvements for future releases to enable the website to be able to create new posts directly to facebook, which he has promised to look at for future releases.

I love working with someone who understands my requirements and has the vision to improve the offerings and quality of their product.

This is an Excellent extension and so simple to administer and set - Don't wait, get this extension right now!

This is one of the Best Facebook Page Display Modules that I have come across, and believe me I've tried a few. It allows you to show all posts on your personal page and they can comment to the page from the Joomla Module (once logged into Facebook).

It could be better if it was able to do one more thing and thats to show all the comments that have been replied to the Posts that are displayed on the Page - At present it just shows the post has lets say 3 comments.

Find a way to do this and I would say it would be 6 stars.

I believe someone has asked the developer whether this could be achieved, but there are no updates in the forum to say whether this has/or even can be achieved. I can't post the forum link in this submission, but you can find it in the qextensions.com forum as "Can Comment responses also be shown in the Post"

The review facility will not let you submit a comment without a rating - so sorry for that... but...

I am on Joomla 2.5 and i just can't suss a way to install this component. There is no Package for 2.5, only 1.5 - the 2.5 just has a load of files but no install log or doc to advise how to install it, or if to copy the files somewhere - to where.
Basically its a tease - I agree with the other reviews - there are no docs, FAQ's or install instructions for 2.5.. I would be happy to change the review after I had had a chance to look at the component but without paying to ask for help.. there is nothing we can do. Frustrated as on paper it looks good.. Oh well !

I have used this extension in line with the Kunena discuss plugin to add a "witty caption" element to my site which records the details posted to the discuss plugin in the forum, but prevents users editing it once it has been posted (I have found it difficult to find a discussion or comment product thats as good - but thats for another review for a different product) - Anyway. Viktor's plugin (WCK) works very well, is easy to use and configure and does exactly what it says it will.

I do still feel it is necessary to build a version for Kunena 2.0.1 as the features in the product don't give me what this plugin does in terms of control.

I am therefore disappointed that this will not be created for 2.0.1 and hope Viktor's mind can be changed.

This is a really great plugin - we have a bike racing website and Tracks is very good for this.
My only issue is that we could do with new versions coming out a little more frequently - interactions with the Eventlist Component would be great and there are definately new features that would make this even better, as there are some minor bugs in the extension.

Overall great

This is a fabulous plugin and should really get a 5 out of 5 - I was struggling to find a problem.. BUT as has been said before - the pop of an Article shows the word Articles .. then below it the correct Article title and all the text. Why? - I can't find any way to remove it and requests to the developers have fallen on deaf ears.

Work out how to remove the word and its definately 6 out of 5.

This is a fantastic product and I recommend everyone to use this - its the best one I have found.

A couple of feature requests for a future release maybe
1) Display the directory where the files are located in the front end
2) Email someone when a file is uploaded/deleted.
3) pop link to show file from the listing, without having to download it to view it.

Please dont think I am complaining, I'm just thinking of further ways to make this simple to install / confirgure product even better.

This is a great Plugin - It does what it says on the tin. It is simple to configure and setup and makes it very easy to add to a module location.
I tried other "simple" file upload extensions, but this is by far the best I have used.

I really liked this module extension - on paper it gave me everything that I wanted - and included an attachment feature which the core component doesn't.

So I set it up, got it on my contact page, but you can't type in any of the fields - its like you have a picture of the boxes.. not the actual input boxes.

No matter I think - I'll just log in to the forum and ask for help. I tried to register, but the forum states (paraphrased) " you are not allowed to register".

So
pro - looks great
con - can't enter in the fields and forum wont let you in.
Overall not the best I'd say!

I have downloaded the LittleDMS and it seems very easy to use, but the Documentation does not not explain in detail how to actually get the module into a Joomla 2.5 page.

This needs to be updated as it will make it much more usable if we can actually make it visible
