I've used joomla since its inception (and mambo before its split to joomla)



Joomgallery is by far, far , far the BEST extension ever and not only because its free. The level of detail thats gone into this extension is fantastic, the guys developing it clearly 'know' what they wanted to build. With this level of detail coders typically forget about documentation and assume everyone will know what whats going on. Again joomgalery team have out shined, the documentation is very well laid out with excellent explanation at every step of the way.



Joomgallery is clearly a team effort and the best extension I've ever come across, excellent work! Thanks so much for making such professional work available for free download, its truly remarkable - Thank you

Thank you!

I signed up to just give this extension a review. I have been using Phoca for the past several years on multiple websites which is a great extension though I was having problems with thumbnail generation throwing errors, I tried joomgallery on a smaller site to try it, and was so impressed I use it now on my own site. It has everything I wanted or needed. I am running Joomla! 2.5 and will be upgrading to the 3.X version shortly, I can only hope the gallery updates successfully Great extension, very highly recommended

Simply awesome

Im not a joomla expert but this extension helped me so much to organise and demonstrate different category images with so many options. Must have for anyone that is not ok with a simple image slider/rotator.

Just what I needed

Great tool for setting up a gallery. It was easy to use. Keep up the good work!

Excellent Tool But...



Posted on 08 May 2014
Yes you read it right, it is indeed one of the best gallery tool out there.



It took some time to figure out things initially, however worked swiftly later.



Now the "but..." thing, the gallery items created using this tool does not show up in the default Joomla search results which is one odd reason it would keep me off from using it.



Rest, All is well... :)
Owner's reply: Hi!

Easy to use

Just getting started with joomgallery but it seems really thought-through and great!

Versatile but limited too



Posted on 17 February 2014
You can set up two or more galleries in different parts of your site, but they have to work in exactly the same way. So for example, if you want one gallery where viewers are allowed to comment and another where they aren’t, you can’t do it. For such a feature-packed program, this seems a rather basic point.

Really nice and simple to use and customise

Looked at a few galleries for a friend's website where he displays his artwork. This extension works really well and is easily customisable to suit my friend's aesthetic sense. :) thank you
