Great extension!

Don't hesitate, it's totally worth the money.



It saved me so much time and it's full of features.

Thanks
My experience of this extension:



• Comprehensive pre-sales support

• Quick purchase

• Intuitive configuration

• Prompt and effective technical support



Ignite Gallery provided everything I want to receive from a third-party developer.

PLEASE READ (;->

You've heard it all before... ''Oh 5 stars this is a great piece of software" or "This is the best image gallery ever!", etc, etc.... yeah right (;-(



Well, I've been away from Joomla for a couple of years and was quite fond of 1.5 and had found all the modules and plugins I needed back then.



Future shock - Joomla 3 - and not many of my old plugins were worth using, so I had to not only get to grips with the a slightly different way of doing things in Joomla 3, but I really needed to find an image gallery that just worked.



So, I was forced to look with fresh eyes at what was out there and after auditioning 6 or more 'high profile', highly respected and highly acclaimed '5 star' user reports, I came to the conclusion that I must be suffering some sort of delusional idea of what and how software should work under the Joomla umbrella, because all these 'high 5' reports were so glowing, when in fact I found the packages ranged from downright rubbish, to very self-indulgent, poorly thought out, limited design offerings (from a users perspective)... that is until I stumbled upon the Ignite gallery!



All the other galleries are poor, compared to this software. The other developers have gone down a tunnel in their thinking and have unfortunately lost sight of the end user!



This is really, really nicely done software that was the first to handle front end uploads with NO hiccups, and the endless possibilities of back-end configuration are really well done. A damn fine piece of software that's been thought out for the end user and not just the developer!!!



And in my case, I had a requirement to do something a little different with a couple of settings and emailed the developer and 'bam'... instant help, cut and paste code and everything exactly as needed and with courtesy to boot.



SPEND THE $40 (I'm pretty sure there's a money back guarantee on the website), you will NOT look back.



Many thanks for an great little program, I'm an official 'fan boi' now (;->
Ignite Gallery has been well worth the money because it has saved me so much time. The documentation is great. It does what it says it will do. I'm always trying out other galleries (esp. the free ones) and there's always something disappointing. This will be your core gallery. Thank you!! Great work!
Perfect product, satisfying all my Needs and easy to install. Super Support, answers within very short time. It is definitely worth to spend the money.

Lightbox do not open



Posted on 25 January 2014
For some reason lightbox not opened. Didn't find solution in documentation and unfortunately support do not reply for my 2 emails. I have professional template on my website and didn't have any related problems with another extensions.
Owner's reply: Hi romvr1,

Matt here, the extension developer. I didn't receive any emails from you. There must have been a technical problem with the email being sent/received.

I monitor the support email inbox throughout my day, and I also have a support person in another time zone, so during weekdays we always respond to support emails the same day.

Please try contacting our support email again, maybe using a different email address to send, or if you click on the review button on this page, you will get my personal email address which you can use to contact me, and I will resolve your issue with the lightbox not showing.

absolutely great

I only registered here to make this review! This component is perfect for uploading images easily in frontend. It has everything you need to manage a lot of photos.

even more it keeps it clean in the file-system with different folders for the original photos, the resized and thumbnails.
Great support, the light box was broken by an update to the Gantry frame work used by my template, they debugged it within 8 hrs, tricky bug involving a specific JavaScript call, they told me how to fix it and passed it along to RocketTheme.



This gallery has a component, module and plug in to do everything I needed to display >100 paintings in a variety of formats. Images are organized in categories with tags and descriptions that are searchable, results can be displayed as a gallery. Display is controlled by profiles, assign a profile to a gallery to control how it is displayed. Can use a Module to make a slide show. Has watermark function.



I've been working with Joomla for >5 years, but I think it is pretty easy to use even with less experience.

Great Support

This is the best image gallery I used so far. Support provided me all answers to my questions in a short time!

Excellent extension
