Stalker ComponentModulePlugin

Editor's Note
  • This extension requires registration to download.
This is my first attempt at a Joomla extension. It's a very simple, and probably useless, add-on to get the visitors to your site linking through to the various Social Networking sites you may be registered with. I created the package for my own use, but figured that it wasn't going to hurt putting it here for anyone else to use.

Stalker is also available in Component & Plugin forms. Module version >= 1.0.0 is required to work with the component, however the Module will continue to operate standalone (as it does now) if you don't want to install the component.

The component extends the functionality in that you can now add any Social Networks that haven't been added so far. Additionally, you can re-order icons etc.

Stalker comes with approx 45 Social Networks ready to go, but you can now add any new networks you wish.

Stalker also supports iconsets. Now you can change the style of the icons to better suit you or your site!! There is also an Import/Export option for the Social Networks in the component. I'm hoping that users who've added new networks to the component will Export their list and email it to me so I can create a master list of Social Networks that others can import. No personal information is exported, it is ONLY the list of Social Networks.

PLEASE NOTE: Stalker now has a new home!!

1.3.0 (08/07/11)
- Stalker updated to work with Joomla 1.6 and 1.7.
- Added french translation
- Added Google+ to the list of social networks

This is a really nice tool. It is easy to setup, looks very good and passes the XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS validation. Thanks

Extremely useful module. Very easy to set up even for beginners.

Note: Would be nice if after i click on one of the icons, page would open inside of the site frame instead of new page.

Otherwise, Excellent.

Thank you for such a great module.

So easy to set up! And looks great! Just one small "wish list" item (so that I don't have to do it myself! lol! ) : user able to enter their own additional sites from the module [edit]

Great job!!!

There's not much you can do with modules in this respect, but I'm actually looking at converting this over to a Component so that networks can be maintained easier.

I loved this module, i've seen a few "social bookmark" modules around for Joomla, but none of them display as nicely and do what you want it to, as this one did, for my site, i replaced the Youtube with their site logo, and added Bebo, as its for my site i only did the 32 pixel images, i also (assuming most people Myspace groups for their sites, rather then a normal profile) altered the myspace URL to http://groups.myspace.com..

Can't think of anything bad to say about it.

I have only been using Joomla for about a week now, and this was by far the simplist thing I have used. Really easy to use. My only neagtive comment is that I cant see how to add my own icon and edit where they would link to, although I may be wrong, like I said, Im new to all of this.

Thanks. 5 Stars from me.

My first extension I installed...
simple --- nearly brainless.
Would be very cool.. if you could customize your own links and link icon with it as well.

Great job Nick! I wanted to put this together but was having trouble. It would be great to have the YouTube logo (easier to recognize). You might want to add Tagged, Friendster to name a few. Keep it going. Thanks so much!

I love the idea and history behind this module!

Kudos to Nick with this awesome module!

Does exactly what it features for now and perhaps my suggestion of having avatar will be put into the next update!

5 stars from here!
