This plugin for the Joomla CMS allows selected administrators to log into registered user accounts using their own administrator passwords. Optionally this facility can be restricted to selected administrators only, or all administrators can be allowed to do this. Since administrators use their own passwords these are encrypted and stored securely in the database as normal, so this should not compromise the security of your site. Additionally you can restrict the facility to selected IP addresses only. The plugin does not allow you to log in as another administrator. This plugin works with the standard Joomla login and extensions that use this. Our tests show that it works with other extensions such as the Virtuemart customer accounts as well - it should work with any extensions that support Joomla authentication plugins and the core Joomla user account. Unfortunately Community Builder doesn't seem to support Joomla authentication plugins any more, so it is just not possible. The plugin is compatible with all versions of Joomla 2.5 and 3. Usage Upload and install using the Joomla installer. Enable it in the plugin manager. Either set the 'enable all administrators' parameters to yes, or list the ids of selected administrators as a comma separated list in the 'Master User Ids' input box. If you wish to restrict by IP address then list allowed IP addresses as a comma separated list. Now, if you are an administrator you can log into your site as another user by supplying the username plus your own administrator password. As far as the site is concerned you will be that user. By popular demand, the plugin now sets a session variable which indicates when a user is logged in as a master user Support We are happy to receive feature suggestions, although, as it is a free extension. we prefer to keep it simple and will normally only include the most compelling. Bugs We are happy to receive genuine bug reports about the extension, because we do want to keep it working. However before you send us a report along the lines of 'I upgraded to Joomla version x.x.x and now master user has suddenly stopped working', please check that this is the only change you recently made on your site. It is rare for a Joomla update to suddenly break the plugin. It is more likely that you are using a login module that does not support authentication plugins - some Ajax ones do not. The solution in that case is to include a standard Joomla login module somewhere on your site which you can use to log in as a master user News Version 2.3.1 fixes the plugin constructor to be compatible with PHP7 Version 2.3.0 improved error handling and added a session variable.

This component allows you to dynamically resize and compress your site images. It includes a plugin framework, and is available with plugins to add a watermark, and to apply dynamic resizing to all your article images, and to restrict image viewing to chosen user groups. The component can cache the resized images, and also allows you to encode the image path, which is useful if you want to hide the location of your original image files. Optionally the image resizer can also include "lazy loading", so that images are only loaded when they are scrolled into view, further speeding up page loading. The method of accessing the image resizer is very simple, you just pass the image to the component in an URL. This means that the image generator could potentially be integrated quite easily into any Joomla extension.

One of the frustrating things about using Virtuemart is that it is not possible to assign modules to Virtuemart pages through the Joomla menu system. This module allows you to control the display of any other Joomla module on Virtuemart pages. It allows you to assign modules to Virtuemart pages (including specific flypages or browse pages), categories, and shopper groups.

The module allows you to control the display of other Joomla modules by Virtuemart page, by category, by specific flypage or browse page, or by shopper group: or a combination of all of those, giving you great flexibility.

This is an alternative to the Virtuemart featured products module. It can be used to show featured products, top ten products, recent products, and random products from some or all categories. It has two views, a grid view and a list view: the list view can be used to show product information. The module is particularly useful when you want to display additional images for your products, as these are shown in a scroller. The module is versatile. The size of the images are adjustable, as is the height and width of each cell (and so the numbers displayed per row can be adjusted). You can chooce whether or not to show the price and add to cart button. There is a choice of transition effects for the images. The module can be used to filter the products by selected categories.
