Introduction

Banner Management

A banner management component that allows you to specify which articles, sections and/or categories a banner appears on. Can also be used to serve different banners for different languages. A further feature is the ability to display banner statistics on the front end for specific clients.


FlexBanners is a powerful banner advert management system. You can also restrict banners to particular articles, categories or sections, as well as all the default Joomla restrictions. It also works well with Google AdSense code - copy the Google code into the custom code box, and it just works.

FlexBanners now supports HTML5 banners.

Supports different banners for different languages! Perfect for use with Joom!fish.

Version 4.1.22 is a preparatory version that gets the Joomla 3 version ready for the move to Joomla 4 (Use version 5 for J4).

Great component

Install and figured it out in about 15mins. I have been looking for a extension that allows expiry on certain dates and certain number of impressions. This is perfect!

Worthy Effort

The plug-in installed just fine as expected. Upon exploring the administrator component the Manage links and Manage clients options returned 404 until created from a banner.

Banner did not display in any position. Though when it was placed in the footer space was reserved but no other indication of anything attempting to display.



Overall impression was good feature set but needs work for OOTB functionality. Not in the mood to sign up for another forum.



1.6.0, 1and1 hosting, nothing fancy installed
Owner's reply: Sorry you didn't have a good experience with FlexBanner, we're still working on the 1.6 version which is a beta. If you aren't prepared to engage in a forum about the product perhaps a beta version of a component really isn't for you.
flexbanner works like a breeze right out of the box. I like components that leave me a lot of freedom for my own decisions and I'm totally pleased with the flexibility this component gives me and the nice features it has

...5 stars from me.



I had a minor issue that I needed support for... I can only recommend you to the offered forum. The support is lightning fast, friendly and motivated. More than I expected from a free extension... 5 stars for the support.



Thank you for contributing this to the community!
It is just great when your client asks you for something that seems impossible and then you dig around and find exactly what you are looking for.



I needed to have specific banners display on specific pages and this extension does exactly that. You can display specific to Section, Category or Article or even a blend of all three. Its just brilliant! Another happy client! :)

Just the best!!

This component work very well and is the only one who are really a full banner management. Of course it is simple and look like the default Joomla Banner component...anyway I don't need more. The killer feature is the fact we can display banners according to the language used on the site (using Joomfish) and is what I looking for.. Ads can be often annoying for users...but annoyance is very increased when ads is displayed in a language not understandable for end users. Andrew the developer give a very nice and fast support. Recently I suggest (some other people ask also the same thing) to him to add the ability to see "Banners stats" from frontend.. In just few weeks this feature was planned and must normally be released very soon... Many thank for this great stuff !!

Works great!

It does exactly what it should do and is far more better then the standard Joomla module.

Don't understand the critical review below. I had no trouble at all installing and configuring this extension. It works right out of the box. Just take the time to review the settings and create your banners! Great job, wel done.
This tool is almost flawless thank you for creating. Just one further extra would make it unbelievable. In the component front end it would be nice to be able to sort the colums. So it is easy to see the latest banner and also to check the highest % clicks etc.



This take this to the extra level, but it is a great tool. I use it on all my sites.
Owner's reply: Thanks for the feedback. I'm currently totally rebuilding FlexBanner to work with Joomla 1.6 and it will have the sort facility you want.

Full of bugs

Well, the module still needs a lot of work.

It could be very useful but the content restriction doesn't work , plus it doesn't intergrate well with Joomla. For example if you set a position for the module , even if the module has no banners to display it still takes up the place having an empty gap where you should have your article in full width.
Owner's reply: Thank you for your feedback but I can assure you it isn't accurate. The module does not behave as you suggest and at no point have you tried to seek support in our forum.

We have a busy active support forum that allows people to get help with any issues you have and you will see that we always get to the bottom of problems.

The large number of good reviews should make it clear that we do the very best for our users and I think a more positive engagement would help everyone.

Exactly what I needed

This worked exactly as it said it did. Before I downloaded this I went to the support forum on it and looked at everything and then also printed out the page that is provided with information about set up. I was worried at first because I am NOT an expert by any stretch at this and some of the reviews made me think it was harder than it was. I had no problems figuring out how to set this up and how to make it work. I had everything up and running in under 30 minutes! Thank you!

Great!
