Well, this is going to be added to my list of Must Have extensions! I have already installed it on two sites & am about to install it on all the others. It works great! You are able to clear your cache with 1 click without leaving the article edit screen. AWESOME!!!!! I like it so much I donated too :D

I was dreading having to add ACL to a site to allow update access to groups of users that have access to different categories and some users update access to only one article in a particular category, and I didn't want anything that hacked the core. Luckily I tried Open Source Excellence first & stopped looking any further. I had a technical issue and posted in the forum. Helix was quick to respond and provide personal technical help in record time. Tech support is rated 11 out of 10! Thanks for this awesome extension, it's well worth the money.

This is definitely a quick and easy way to install a simple shopping cart if you don't need the advanced features of a full eCommerce site. I was able to create several Add to Cart buttons on one page for different items and a View Cart button also.
It allowed me to use the sellers PayPal profile for sales tax for purchases originating in the sellers home state, rather than the plugin's choice of either a flat tax for all items or none. It also allowed me to either assign a shipping amount for each item or use the sellers PayPal profile to use a table to determine shipping amount based on total of purchase.
I encountered a problem because I had misused the parameter syntax. I emailed the developer & got an immediate response & a quick fix by Bing. The tech support for this extension is next to none!
The developer website might benefit from allowing users to post questions in the forum so others can benefit from the fix but the response to tech support emails sent from the website more than makes up for this.

Another great extension from YooTheme! Easy to set up. It is so nice to be able to provide directions from any location without opening a new window or tab & without your visitor leaving your site. Gives your site a real Web 2.0, interactive feature! Great to add local points of interest, hotels, entertainment etc.. to your map. Well worth the YooTheme membership for the high quality YooTools & templates! Thanks!!!

Great component!
I used Auchi's fix to fix the admin menu problem
Comment out line 83 in file administrator/components/com_joomlaxplorer/admin.joomlaxplorer.php
I used saurabhg10's fix to change the root file to the Joomla site root file instead of the hosting account root file.
Modify the following lines in the file {site root directory}/administrator/components/com_joomlaxplorer/.config/conf.php
else {
$GLOBALS["home_dir"] = $dir_above;
// the url corresponding with the home directory: (no trailing ‘/’)
$GLOBALS["home_url"] = substr( $mosConfig_live_site, 0, strrpos($mosConfig_live_site, ‘/’));
}
to the following…
else {
$GLOBALS["home_dir"] = $mosConfig_absolute_path;
// the url corresponding with the home directory: (no trailing ‘/’)
$GLOBALS["home_url"] = $mosConfig_live_site;
}
I use the component in the aadmin back-end and with these two simple fixes it works great for me! It is so nice to be able to edit site files from within Joomla without having to login to the site's control panel. A great time saver!

You should run this diagnostic test on every new Joomla installation. It will tell you if any files were corrupted or are missing during the ftp, the ftp log doesn't always show the missing or corrupted files. It can save you a lot of hair pulling when things don't work right because one little file somewhere is incomplete.

I purchased this extension & installed it for a customer who writes engine testing software. I created a form which sends out a price list upon submission. Individual fields on the form can be formatted, edited & customized. My customer (site owner) gets a notification email & can login to the front end & look at the form data that was submitted.
With another form my customer (site owner) wanted his customers to be able to upload a binary file that is generated from his software. It is an odd file that has a .cdf extension. I could get the upload to work with no problems for an image file or any of the other more standard files but had trouble getting a .cdf file to upload. Alex with RSforms was very responsive to my requests for help with this and promptly sent me the instructions to get it to work perfectly.
All form features are easily inserted into the form - radio buttons, check boxes, drop down lists, submit, reset & upload buttons, and many more useful functions that I have
yet to explore.
Fields can be validated for various tests like, numeric, alpha, alpha-numeric, valid email and can be made mandatory if necessary.
I really like the captcha feature.
I will be using this product on my other sites. It's a very useful tool. I highly recommend it.
Thanks RSform for making the forms on my sites look so good with so little effort!

Really easy to install, configure & add to content items. I used it in a FAQ page. I had separate Tabs for the different model FAQs & put the FAQs for each model on the appropriate Tab. The FAQs were inserted as Slides in the Tabs. A very good way to organize content on a single page without having to scroll through long pages of text.
An excellent extension, thanks so much!
