Introduction
A community-driven quote wall for Joomla, with author profiles, curated collections, reactions, moderation, share cards, embeds and a daily digest.
Community Quotes turns great lines into a living wall your members build together. It
is a complete quotations platform for Joomla: a curated quote wall, verified author
profiles, member collections, reactions and discussion, community submissions with
moderation, share cards, article embeds, display modules and an email digest.
Version 6.0.0 is a ground-up rewrite for Joomla 5 and 6. The backend is a modern Joomla
MVC component with a dependency-injection service layer and parameter-bound queries. The
admin and the public site are each a React 19 single page app, so editors and readers
get a fast, app-like experience with no page reloads and no jQuery. A non-destructive
migration brings existing data forward and preserves row IDs, so your links keep working.
Everything installs as one package: the component, a single site module with eight
display modes, and five plugins for shortcodes, the editor button, the digest scheduler,
Rewardify points and QuillThreads comments. The two integration plugins stay dormant
until their host extension is present, so nothing breaks if you do not use them.
