Worked Very Well For This Newbie

Posted on 13 November 2022

Functionality

This plugin finally got my FB Posts and Shares to include images. Site and Images now have Facebooks required Open Graph meta info

Ease of use

Being a Joomla Newbie it took me a couple of hours to figured out how to set it up. The work flow is easy and integrated nicely in TinyMCE.

Support

Have not needed aany support (yet). The payment, activation key, download all went very smooth.
They updated in last year =good

Documentation

Much better than most and that was a 'decider' for me. HOWEVER, the documentation is old and needs updating. That's why I struggled a little

Value for money

Excellent. NO Problems . Works Well. That is Worth a lot. The first OG plugin I tried from another supplier was Free and worth nothing....

I used this to: Website OG meta tags that allow Facebook to work properly for me. (note to Open Shack: Invest 3 hours and update your documentation with screen captures and info that look more like your product on joomla 4+. Having said that, I greatly valued that you HAD documentation!! Tnx)

Clean, simple, and very, very effective.

Functionality

This works as smoothly and easily as possible. New version uses Into Image and Extra Fields.

Ease of use

Instant success - nothing could have been easier. (Am I up to 64 characters yet?)

Support

Joomlashack is as good as it gets - and one feature I asked about appeared a few days later in a new version. I use many of their extensions

Documentation

Documentation, tutorials, and videos are complete - and simple enough even I understand it

Value for money

When coupled with the excellent support, this component slots in with other shack pro and free components. Worth every penny.

I used this to: Two of my clients make heavy use of FB and Twitter - this makes the process fire-and-forget.

It works as claimed ... I could say more but that wouldn't add value

Ease of use

Tried two other similar plugins and wish I'd gone with this first up.

Support

Had a glitch with cache setting and that issue I had was resolved promptly and simply.

Documentation

The critical issue missing is coming to terms with cache. Joomla or server or an addon cache can be a cause for not functioning as it should

Functionality

Once installed and set up, it works great. No need to touch it again.

Ease of use

Easy to install, but you might need to fiddle with the settings a bit to get the ideal setup. Use the Facebook debugger to check results.

Support

Among the best. Very few developers offer this level of support.

Documentation

Yes, documentation is provided.

Value for money

I've been working with Joomla since before it was even called Joomla and I've tried many extensions. Joomlashack's stuff is among the best!

I used this to: All my Joomla websites.
