WHY ALLVIDEOS?

• You don't have to copy/paste huge blocks of HTML code, just to get a video from YouTube to playback on your Joomla website. Your WYSIWYG editor in Joomla loves it and so will you and your clients!
• You use simple plugin tags like {youtube}https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5lGNkS5TE0{/youtube} (or just {youtube}g5lGNkS5TE0{/youtube}), {mp4}holiday_in_rome{/mp4} or {mp3}pixies_bonemachine{/mp3}.

FEATURES

1. All major 3rd party media providers are supported: YouTube (single videos & playlists), Vimeo, Dailymotion, Twitch, Facebook (for videos), Flickr (for videos), Mixcloud & SoundCloud. Use simple plugin tags utilizing the full media page URL (e.g. {youtube}https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5lGNkS5TE0{/youtube}) or just the ID from the media URL page (e.g {youtube}g5lGNkS5TE0{/youtube}).
2. Stream your own media content using web-native video and audio formats like H.264/MPEG-4 (.mp4/.m4v/.m4a), WebM (.webm), Ogg Theora Vorbis (.ogg/.ogv/.oga), MP3 (.mp3), WAVE PCM (.wav) & FLAC (.flac), as well as generic containers like .avi & .mkv. For non web-native media embedded with older version of AllVideos (prior to version 5.0.0), which are not supported by modern browsers, a download message will be presented - this basically includes Flash Video (.flv/.f4v), ShockWave Flash (.swf), Windows Media (.wmv/.wma), QuickTime (.mov/.mpg/.mpeg/.3gp/.3g2/.aac), DivX (.divx) etc.
3. Easily embed your media content either directly from your server or a remote server.
4. Use custom preview (poster) images for self-hosted video & audio files. For videos specifically (and unlike any other similar solution in Joomla), AllVideos can auto-generate preview images from the 5th second of each video by utilizing modern browser features.
5. Need a simple way to have random preview images for your self-hosted audio files? Enable the Unsplash.com integration and your audio files will use random music/audio related images as previews from the popular stock image service.
6. Use AllVideos to display background videos with muted sound.
7. Simple controls inside the plugin's parameters page provide layout consistency on all the videos shown in your Joomla website. Set your preferences in seconds, publish the plugin and you're ready to start embedding media content!
8. Easy, descriptive syntax for media embedding - {format OR provider}filename{/format OR provider}. You can also use syntax like {format OR provider}filename|width|height|autoplay{/format OR provider} (e.g. an "autoplaying" YouTube video with {youtube}he73js82|600|450|1{/youtube}) to display media at different dimensions.
9. Uses MVC templating. Just copy the /tmpl folder included in the plugin, into your Joomla template's /html folder and rename it to "jw_allvideos", then style the output as you wish.
10. Includes 3 templates: Classic, Framed and Responsive
11. Fully responsive media playback when using the "Responsive" template.
12. Uses the core Joomla updater.

COMPATIBILITY

AllVideos is fully compatible with Joomla versions 1.5, 2.5, 3.x, 4.x & 5.x on servers running PHP versions 5, 7 & 8.

LICENSE

AllVideos is a Joomla plugin developed by JoomlaWorks, released under the GNU General Public License.

SCREENSHOTS

{gallery}galleries/allvideos5_screenshots{/gallery}

You've already been there... Joomla is a great content management system. In fact it's considered one of the best in the world. But the default article system in Joomla is so spartan! Just a title, your content body and that's it. This is where K2 comes in.

K2 was built as a complete replacement of the default article system in Joomla. Install it like any Joomla extension, import your articles from the default Joomla article system and you instantly get a host of new features for your existing content: rich content forms for items (think of Joomla articles with additional fields for article images, videos, podcasts & other audio files, image galleries and attachments), hassle-free image management (uploaded item images are auto-resized to 6 configurable dimensions, either globally or per category - you can now forget about using Photoshop resizing!), comments, tagging, built-in options to extend content forms (e.g. to create product catalogs), powerful content modules fetching K2 content in any way you can imagine, frontend editing with easy to use access control settings (for content-heavy websites), powerful yet easy templating (and sub-templating) for going above the "Joomla average", extended user profiles, user groups, blogs, a powerful plugin API to extend item/category/user forms, "drag and drop" media manager and many more!

K2 is the ideal solution for managing your content, regardless of site "size": you can use it from a small blog to a complex corporate site or even a multi-author environment (portals, magazines etc.). To provide a practical example, using K2, you can transform your Joomla website to a news/magazine site with author blogs, product catalogs, work portfolio, knowledge base, download/document manager, directory listing, event listing and more, all this bundled under one package! And since K2 is extensible with additional fields to its base item form, you can easily create category-specific content types, e.g. article, blog post, product page, directory listing.

It's no wonder that K2 powers some of the biggest and most popular Joomla sites ever built worldwide!

These integrated features in K2 not only save website administrators precious management time (from managing a dozen extensions which would otherwise be required), but they also allow for better performance.

K2 was actually built on these 4 principles: feature-rich content in Joomla, ease of use (for any type of user), flexible templating, performance

And best of all? K2 is totally free to use!

FEATURES

• Less clicks to important content management and admin tasks in the Joomla 4 backend... duh!
• Neatly organize the menu in 2 columns (for admins), one to access common content management tasks and one to access common admin tasks. Keep in mind that not everything is included and for good reason: keep things simple.
• Respects configured backend access permissions for your user groups. In other words, plain content managers will see menu options for what they can only access, whereas Super Admins will see menu options for everything.

PREVIEW

HOW TO USE

• Install the module.

So now:

a) you don't need to have an additional gallery component to display your images and/or redirect your visitors elsewhere, as the galleries integrate with your Joomla articles, K2 items, Virtuemart/HikaShop products or any other component that allows "plugin parsing" and also utilizes Joomla WYSIWYG editor plugins.
b) you focus more on content writing and less on managing the images! You are not limited to embedding one gallery per article, you can embed as many as you want.
c) you don't have to worry about upgrades. Simply install any new version of the extension on top of the old one and your galleries will inherit any new features! Fully backwards compatible and better still, it works with Joomla versions 1.5 to 3.x!

FEATURES

• Amazing backend component and WYSIWYG editor plugin allow you to fully control gallery creation, previewing and editing, either on a centralized place (the component) or inside any component form that load a Joomla WYSIWYG editor: We have created a new design philosophy that blends amazingly well with the Joomla admin user interface. And it's also consistent on all supported Joomla versions (1.5 to 3.x). You, your clients and your content writers will love it. And when you upgrade to a newer Joomla version, they won't need to adapt to a new design, because the design is consistent across different Joomla versions.
• Fully configurable thumbnails: Adjust the default width and height, set the thumbnail quality. You can even have different galleries displayed with thumbnails of different dimensions on the same page! You set all this options right before inserting an image gallery into your content. It's a piece of cake.
• Captions in your galleries: Don't just create image grids. Add meaningful information under each thumbnail! Using the Simple Image Gallery Pro backend interface (accessible via the component or the WYSIWYG editor plugin) you can optionally provide a short title and a more detailed description text per image. You can even use full HTML code inside the image description which is displayed on the lightbox popup. Don't want to add captions? You don't have to, it's completely optional. Continue to just upload images inside Simple Image Gallery Pro and let it do everything else!
• Full JoomFish/Falang support: for captions in multiple languages!
• Smart thumbnail resize: If enabled, thumbnails are resized to fit the thumbnail viewport as set in the plugin parameters. This option is ideal when you want to display images of different aspect ratio in thumbnails of the same dimensions.
• 10 amazing gallery layouts (themes), including "Polaroids" and the JavaScript enhanced "Galleria", "Galleria White" & "SlickShow1" which transform your gallery to a slideshow.
• Gallery layouts are based on the MVC architecture, which means you can fully override all gallery layouts (both HTML and CSS) to match your needs - and without caring about future updates of the plugin breaking your unique gallery layout! You just place the overrides inside your Joomla template's folder structure.
• 13 of the best popup (lightbox) engines, most fully responsive to match your site responsive/adaptive design! Most popup engines are powered by jQuery, but we also provide 2 that utilize "vanilla" JavaScript as well. The jQuery ones are loaded in "no conflict" mode to avoid any JavaScript conflicts with other Joomla extensions that may also utilize jQuery-based scripts.
• Flickr Gallery/Album/Set integration: Probably the easiest way to embed a Flickr set of images... Just paste the Flickr URL within the plugin's { gallery} tags like this { gallery}http://www.flickr.com/photos/joomlaworks/sets/72157626907305094/{/gallery} and you're done!
• Single thumbnail mode: only one thumbnail shows up in place of your normal gallery but once you click on it, you can browse though the entire source gallery folder! This mode is ideal for powerpoint-like presentations.
• Thumbnails are created by the source images, but even the source images can also be resized: By utilizing external cloud services, you can make sure your "source" images never exceed a given width (e.g. 900px). That way, you avoid causing any confusion to your visitors by opening a 2000px wide image inside a lightbox that covers the entire browser window, just because one of your content writers uploaded an extremely large image! Some of the popup engines go one step further and will automatically adapt the source image to fit the browser window, when their original or "cloud resized" dimensions exceed the actual viewport.
• Allow source image downloading: want your visitors to download the original images you uploaded? Just turn on the related component parameter and your visitors will see a download link the gallery popups.
• Slideshow option built into most popup engines: if you choose a popup engine that is "slideshow capable", then your visitors don't need to manually click the navigation elements inside the lightbox popup to move back and forth in the image set. They can simple hit the slideshow play button and the images will auto-slide until the end of the gallery is reached.
• Embed a module position in the popups: want to serve banners in all your popup images? Just include a module position which fetches banners from some banner module and let Simple Image Gallery Pro do the rest!
• Print stylesheet: A "print" stylesheet makes sure your galleries won't look messed up when visitors print your articles (cause browsers don't render background images when printing). Simple Image Gallery Pro hides all your galleries and puts an anchor link in place, when printing a page with galleries on it. So your visitors have a point of reference for their galleries and if they print your pages as PDFs, the get working links to click on when they view the PDF file!
• Simple Image Gallery Pro uses the Joomla API to attach the various CSS and JS files required for the galleries: This makes it possible to use some of the many "compression" plugins (from the Joomla Extensions Directory) to "mashup" all these files in just 1 CSS and 1 JS file. More over, the thumbnail creation engine is written from the ground up to consume the least possible resources from your server, making Simple Image Gallery Pro "shared hosting" friendly too!
• Fully integrates with K2, the popular content extension for Joomla, inside the "Image Gallery" tab of the K2 item forms.
• Mobile/tablet device friendly: tested on iOS and Android devices of various dimensions - utilizing the "responsive" popup engines, you can also make the viewing experience better with touch support for navigating between images.
• Advanced features include the setting of different gallery layouts (themes) and/or popup engines per gallery on the same page!
• New extended syntax for more flexibility (for power users). Allows you to use multiple gallery layouts and/or multiple popup engines under the same page!
• Backwards compatibility with the free version. You just uninstall the free version, install the PRO version and you're done! No need to re-edit your existing content items (articles) that previously included image galleries, inserted with the free version. If you forget to uninstall the free version, Simple Image Gallery Pro will gently remind you.
• Requirements auto-detect: if something is not set up properly in your site or server or if a selected image folder is wrong or already deleted, preventing Simple Image Gallery Pro to operate properly, the extension can detect any limitations and notify you accordingly.
• Frontend image gallery uploading is now possible to isolated user folders! That means your community's users or your site's content contributors can now use the handy Simple Image Gallery Pro editor button to upload and manage image galleries for their content. This option is applicable to any Joomla extension that allows frontend editing for its content (e.g. K2 or the default Joomla article system).
• Better ACL integration for Joomla 2.5 or later. You can now assign permissions to create, edit and/or delete to separate Joomla user groups in the backend.
• Enforce a file size limit (e.g. 300kb or 2mb) for each image in the gallery uploader.
• Reads EXIF orientation data and properly rotates (or flips) images, which means there's now no need to use desktop software to manipulate image orientation first (especially on images taken on pro DSLR cameras).
• Compatible with Joomla 1.5, 2.5 & 3.x.
• Compatible with PHP versions up to 7.4 - although not tested explicitely on PHP 8, it should work just fine.

USING DISQUS ON YOUR JOOMLA! WEBSITE

After you signup for an account and add your website or blog at the Disqus dashboard, all you have to do to integrate Disqus in your Joomla website is copy your subdomain name (shortname) over to the (content) plugin's related field.

FEATURES

- Options for comments counter/anchor link for listing and article pages
- Choose to integrate Disqus comments in specific categories and/or menu items
- Neutral design for easy integration on any template design
- Fully MVC skinnable. Just copy the /plugins/content/jw_disqus/tmpl folder (in Joomla 1.5) or /plugins/content/jw_disqus/jw_disqus/tmpl (in Joomla 2.5 or newer) inside your Joomla template's /html folder, rename to /html/jw_disqus and start tweaking the HTML and CSS!
- Scrolling effects for anchor links
- Option for testing Disqus comments plugin locally before going live.

COMPATIBILITY

Disqus Comments (for Joomla) is compatible with Joomla versions 1.5, 2.5 & 3.x on servers running PHP versions 5, 7 and 8.

A version for Joomla 4 will also be released soon.

LICENSE

Disqus Comments (for Joomla) is a Joomla plugin developed by JoomlaWorks, released under the GNU General Public License.

You can even publish multiple feeds at the same time (meaning in the same module instance) and have them display combined!

The 'Simple RSS Feed Reader' module is based on the same feed parsing engine that powers JoomlaReader.com, the most popular Joomla news aggregator in the Joomla Community.

The feeds are stored inside your Joomla site's cache folder and refreshed in a specific time interval, which you set in the module's parameters. This feed cache is different to Joomla's cache, as you may need to have your site refreshed every 5 minutes, but have the feeds the module retrieves stored longer than 5 minutes.

FEATURES

• one input box for feeds enables you to add unlimited feeds per module instance
• combine multiple feeds into one output list
• show or hide the first image inside each feed content
• extract and resize remote images for more layout control
• there's an additional option to serve resized images using a remote image resizing service (Images.weserv.nl - powered by CloudFlare's CDN) for fast loading times and without stressing your server
• additional content options include pre-text, post-text and a custom link option at the bottom of the feeds block
• MVC templating is standard - the module comes pre-packed with 3 sub-templates that will fit most sites - they also serve as a great starting point if you want to create your own
• a special 3rd template (which was added in v3.8.0) allows for rendering any YouTube Playlist's feed as a list of videos (requires the use of the AllVideos plugin - also free)
• one input box for feeds enables you to add unlimited sources to your module  

After you install the module, add one or more feed sources in the related box under "Fetch Options" and simply adjust the "Feed Content Options" in the module parameters.

STYLING

The module comes with 3 sub-templates, which should be sufficient for most websites. If you want more control, you can simply override both the generated HTML and CSS, using MVC template overrides within your Joomla template. Or you can create new folders inside your template's /html/mod_jw_srfr/ folder and just select the new ones in the module's parameters.

The compact template is inspired by JoomlaReader.com.

COMPATIBILITY

Simple RSS Feed Reader is fully compatible with Joomla versions 1.5, 2.5 & 3.x on servers running PHP versions 5, 7 & 8.

A version for Joomla 4.x will be released soon.

LICENSE

Simple RSS Feed Reader is a Joomla module developed by JoomlaWorks, released under the GNU General Public License.

So for example, if we have a folder called "my_trip_to_Paris" located in images/stories/my_trip_to_Paris, then we can create our gallery by simply entering the tag {gallery}my_trip_to_Paris{/gallery} into some Joomla article.

The galleries created are presented as a grid of image thumbnails. When your visitors click on a thumbnail, they see the original image in a lightbox popup. The thumbnails are generated and cached using PHP for better results.

So let's briefly see the main advantages of using Simple Image Gallery on your Joomla website:

• you don't need to have an additional gallery component to display a few images,
• you don't need to tell your visitors "to see our photos from Paris click here" and
• you focus more on content writing and less on administering the images!

The plugin is ideal for news portals wanting to display some product images, for example, inside their articles. Or for people who quickly wanna show their summer vacation pictures. With Simple Image Gallery, you can have as many galleries as you want inside each article.

The image gallery grid can also be printed when using the print preview feature available in most Joomla components (including the default article system component and K2).

Please note that if you want to create a gallery from a subfolder located inside your "image gallery root folder", simply adjust the plugin syntax to reflect the remaining path (after your set "root folder"), e.g. {gallery}folder/subfolder/othersubfolder{/gallery}. Make sure you write the path to your target folder without any slashes at the beginning or the end of your path.

You can see a demo of the plugin here: https://demo.joomlaworks.net/simple-image-gallery

Simple Image Gallery is fully compatible with Joomla versions 1.5, 2.5, 3.x & 4.x on servers running PHP versions 5, 7 & 8.

Simple Image Gallery is a Joomla plugin developed by JoomlaWorks, released under the GNU General Public License.

It creates an uber cool slideshow with text snippets laying on top of images, in a variety of templates and combined effects.

Frontpage SlideShow allows you to create multiple slideshows within your Joomla website (in different pages or even on the same page), comes with 8 uniquely styled templates, a powerful jQuery based slideshow engine with crossfade & carousel based transitions, text effects, statistics and can retrieve content automatically from Joomla articles/menus, K2 items and Virtuemart/HikaShop products!

Frontpage SlideShow is a pure CSS & JavaScript based slideshow system, which means it's dead simple to customize and it's both SEO and tablet/mobile friendly (in iOS, Android or Windows 8 smartphones & tablets).

And don't worry about how you'll manage your slideshows. Unlike other expensive/copycat implementations, Frontpage Slideshow has a dedicated Joomla backend component which you use to effortlessly manage your slideshows. Easy and fast.

Moreover, it now natively supports content fetching from K2 and the most popular e-commerce components for Joomla: Virtuemart (versions 2.x & 3.x) and HikaShop. That means you quickly make up your slides just by selecting the source (e.g. a K2 item) and Frontpage Slideshow will fetch in a snap the title, description text and associated image!

FEATURES

• Fully compatible with Joomla 1.5 - 3.x
• Lightweight & frontend optimized slideshow engine, based on jQuery, offering crossfade & carousel transition effects between slides, lava-lamp style navigation, progress bar and text transition effects. That means you have 24 different effect combinations to use!
  
• 9 slideshow templates to get you started. Customizing them is very easy as all fonts, font-sizes, colors etc. are controlled by CSS. Building your own is a joy if you know your way around with MVC templating in Joomla.
• Responsive as of v3.10.
• The slide creation process is dead simple to use through guided steps.
• Drag and drop slide re-ordering (per category) in the backend.
• Integration with Joomla articles and the most popular Joomla content extensions like K2, Virtuemart (2.x & 3.x) & HikaShop. That means Frontpage Slideshow can import the title, text, link and associated image from such components with a single clicks. For example, if you want to create a slide from a K2 item, all you have to do is select that K2 item and Frontpage Slideshow will automatically populate all slide fields, which you are free of course to edit as you wish!
• You can now display your slideshows either via the module (or multiple module copies) or via the new component view. That means you can create a direct menu link to a specific slideshow, so you can e.g. assign a slideshow to your homepage, without messing with module positions and funky module display conditions. This option is ideal for portfolio based websites that want to assign slideshows directly to Joomla menu items.
• Multiple slideshows in your Joomla website, even on the same page (thanks to new slideshow engine) - so you can have a slideshow fetched in the component region and an other in a module or in combinations you define.
• Better slide image uploading using ajax (which means better previewing) and better slide image management (similar to K2's), with multiple copies of your original image created for better performance. And we got some cool new templates to show in the near future using these different size images...
• Statistics! Frontpage Slideshow will now track (by default) all slideshow clicks and create beautiful statistics graphs in the backend, so you can visually see which are your most popular slides in various timeframes. Using Frontpage Slideshow to promote products? Now you can now which products draw your customers attention more! Statistics can of course be disabled at any time if you prefer SEO over click tracking.
• Better server-side performance compared to version 2.x. A new caching layer for the module and the new slideshow content prefetching mechanism, which reduces the queries needed to retrieve slide content from third-party extensions (K2, Virtuemart & HikaShop). In high traffic or high content volume Joomla websites, this translates to significantly better performance.
• Better image compression on both desktop and mobile browsers with the integration of a 3rd party web service. This can lead to up to 50% image size reduction and mobile optimized serving of images when your site is viewed in mobile browsers on iPhone/iPad/Android etc.
• Full ACL integration with Joomla 2.5+.
• New version/update notification in Joomla 2.5+.

The component's user interface is very clean and easy to learn. It consists of only 2 areas to edit: your slides and your categories (slideshows).

Additionally, the styling/customization of each slideshow is entirely HTML/CSS based. You have full control over the layout of the slideshow and you can easily style it to suit your needs. No other website will ever share the same looks as yours!

As with all our Joomla extensions, Frontpage Slideshow uses MVC template overrides - so you can modify existing templates or create your own from scratch without a) hacking core extension code and b) worrying about future updates breaking up your changes.

Frontpage Slideshow has been successfully tested in all major browsers. The prebundled slideshow templates are fully compatible with Firefox, Chrome, Safari, Opera, Edge and Internet Explorer version 7 and above.

SCREENSHOTS

Backend interface screenshots taken from Joomla 1.5 (which is nearly identical to Joomla 2.5) & Joomla 3.x. Frontpage Slideshow uses the Joomla backend design guidelines so it will match the design of all these Joomla versions, from 1.5 to 3.x.
