excellent component

excellent component, excellent support.

I think it's the best script in slide news category.



I use rtl template and i get great support.



So now it's working for rtl templates.





recommended!



Efi.

Easy to use and looks fantastic

Put simlply this component displays all articles from a selected joomla category in a slick sliding presentation via module and/or in your content with the mambot.



It was easy to intall and configure and I didnt need to contact support or read the provided instruction manual to get it looking the way I wanted.



I downloaded this primarily to add a featured articles ticker to my homepage which it does very well but its also very versatile and im now using the module as a photo slideshow too.



My only gripe is with the navigation panel, if your trying to present a large number of articles in a small space and want user navigation the only option is numbered selection which takes up too much space, the option to have previous/next buttons instead would have been nice.



All in all its a superb component thats very versatile and easy to use. Highly recommended.

This is a good one

No install problems, no config problems. I had one issue with the appearance of the plugin and immediately tech support responded with a fix and good advice.

As far as joomla add-ons go, this is well coded and stable. A decent and extensible bit of code. Impressed. Thanks to Dave at tech support for a cogent and instant fix to my display query.

Although I hate the term, this module adds a decent Web2.0 look to your articles.

Excellent Extension

Great and flawless results.



Fairly easy to install, although disappointing that you have to install the plugin if you wish to just use the module. This is a minor issue and installation is fairly simple and quick to do.



The module and the component both have a comprehensive list of options with great flexibility. Not all however, have a tip to explain their usage, and in my view are not not grouped intuitively.



Two issues which has resulted in a slightly imperfect score:

1) When enabled, the option "Enable Fade Effect" stops the "Effects" selected further down in the option list. This should be in the effects list and not an additional option.

2) The Article is placed in a 'table' and there is no way that I can find to change this to DIVs. I would have preferred it if the module used the templates for content which you can over-ride with ones written for the template.



A good addition will also be to allow the navigation to use text from the title rather than numbers 1, 2, 3 etc.



All in all a very impressive and neat extension and I will not hesitate to recommend.
Owner's reply: According to fade effect : it's added as additional option because effects option it's set of slide effects, but fade it's another type of visualization.
According to DIVs and Tables we have 2 options on the list responsible for this features: "W3C XHTML 1.0" - it's make articles placed in DIV or Tables also we have "Elements explanation" option ( it's have 3 values UL, DIV, SPAN ) - it's make you able to select main tag for 2JNewsSlider container it's very useful in the case of conflicts with another code in joomla template, or some other front end modules.

Eye-catching module and great support

Have installed easily, modifications can be done through Administrator and CSS. Eye-catching results showing latest news too. Get extra-good support and updates.

Great support, Professional News Slider



Posted on 06 May 2008
This is an eye-catching news slider that bring in evidence your content. Just create a rich-content news articles and put them under a section and/or category, just ready to shoot at your visitors with captivating messages.



I had a few issues after installation of this module, but the support team at 2J was just very helpful and made it work that same day.



Great job guys, keep up with the support.

Excellent performance and support

Using 2JNews Slider with Joomla 1.5



The news slider worked well straight after install and I am impressed with what it does for me.



There was also an obscure problem (template related) that support quickly resolved for me. Support response was quick and good!



Many thanks!

Would have been excellent, but...



Posted on 12 April 2008
... didn't work with JWTabs&Slides.



But the author was brilliant with his support - quick and helpful - and we've established that it's an Ajax clash and that when 2Joomla release their upcoming AjaxTabs extension those two should work together perfectly.



Thanks for a great extension which looks fab and is easy to install and understand.

Easy to install, does what it says



Posted on 04 April 2008
So far found nothing to fault it. Wide range of options and parameters which are very simple to set. Support from the author has been instant to the two enquiries I made. Recommended.

Nice piece of software, great support!



Posted on 31 March 2008
Amazing scale of possibilities. Nice interface and clear back-office. Bought a one-user license for a site and got _excellent_ support from the programmer. Even helped installing the software on my server when I had trouble installing.
