M loving this module,only problem m facing is that when I install it on my homepage,and then I click on the articles through this module,some other modules dont work with that article.ex.disqus comments,some joomla default modules etc.Please help..I want to use this module

Great but likely EOL

This is a great module withmost of teh features you would want (but omissions like inability not to show article that is currently displayed). The code isn't very nice but with some (heavy) template output overrides works great. Unfortunatelly it doesn't seem J1.7+ version is coming.
Owner's reply: We have revamped the code and update it to work in Joomla 1.7/2.5. Have a try...
Good extension, but for static display of content only. I find the setting of parameters limited: picking from lists of sections and category names would be much more convenient than looking up every category id number. Also most formatting has to be done by editing css files.



One major bug: though the module works well for the most part with joomfish, it fails to pick up the translation of the category, rendering it always in english no matter what language is selected. I hope this can get fixed soon and I will gladly raise my rating.

Great Extension!

This is a great extension, Tnks developers!!!
Great extension - I allocated a couple of hours to changing the structure of my front page....then I found this and it only took 20 minutes to get the look I was after. thank you so much for this wonderful module.
I have always been too busy to add a review for the extensions I have used, but this one I just had to.



Out of the box it worked like a charm, and with only some slight CSS tweaking I had it looking like I wanted in less than 5 minutes.



Great work!
This is a very good module indeed. It works as advertised. All I wanted is to show specific categories articles in the top part of a website. I wanted WordPress functionality to be honest. I tried K2 in that matter which loads a whole new interface and big stuff and the configuration is an overkill. I wanted something really quick. Mini FrontPage did the job in no time all I had to deal with then is restyling to suit my site's theme.



Some feedback to the kind developer:



1- Thumbnail sometimes don't honor control panel options to hide.

2- If you add the option to select showing category or section name that will be an advantage.

3- If added separate options for each column to control width introtext and thumbnail size and position



I'm completely satisfied with Mini FrontPage and the point mentioned above is something like a wish list for future development. Thank you!

Thumnails not working

The thumbnails only works for some articles in the front, for others it shows the default image. Apart from the module is looking good.

Excellent Module
