Nice, but not responsive

David Melville (1).
Posted on 04 July 2017

Functionality

It delivers as described, but odd that it is not responsive. These days that is essential.

Ease of use

Super easy!

Documentation

Their documentation was good. Better than most!

I used this to: Just trying it out as a possible solution. Lacking responsiveness, I'll look elsewhere.

Version 3.4.

Ease of use

Good and simle navigation

Support

Not tested

Documentation

If its wor it could be fine. :-)

I used this to: Home page slide show.

Owner's reply: It is most likely a jquery conflict with another extension. BEFORE you post a review like this, why not ask for help? Obviously the extension does work.

I do not know, why this extension is rated so high...

Not Responsive

Posted on 03 March 2015

Functionality

This is a great extension but not being responsive seems odd.

Ease of use

Couldn't be any easier.

Support

Last time I used it was good.

Documentation

Not really needed on this but the developer has good documentation.

I used this to: One site but now must switch to a responsive slider.

Excellent Extension

Fantastic Module

Posted on 14 November 2013

I have been using this Module for a few years on a 1.5 site and it has been awesome, lots of customization options.

Just upgraded my site to 3.2 and the back end does not work at the moment, can't wait until it is updated and working again, I feel a little lost without it on my site.

Thanks for a fantastic Joomla tool, and for free at that!! Keep up the great work over there.

Perfect! But watch when updating Joomla...

Simple and great module for a quick and easy slideshow. Exactly what I was looking for.

Used this one on several websites.

So far so good but watch out when updating Joomla to version 3.2!

The setting tabs are not accessible anymore rendering this module useless. That is too bad. Hope the developer will pick this up.

Owner's reply: Thanks for the kind review. We just returned from a great Joomla World Conference and this week we are moving our office. As soon as we are settled into our new space, I will take a look a this. Thanks for the heads up!

Thank you

This extension did exactly what it said it does, but was easier to use and configure than expected.

Worked well with Modules Anywhere for me and still looks great on multiple devices/browsers.

Highly recommend.
