Joomla! extensions from RSJoomla! - Blog

We've been working hard lately to bring you RSForm!Pro rev. 41 with hot new features:
multiple validation rules, fallback method for Joomla! language files, migration plugin for BF Forms and many more.

1. Multiple validation rules

The form field values have new validation rules:

• "Unique Field": when this validation rule is selected, RSForm!Pro won’t allow 2 identical field values
• "Email Address with DNS Check" - an additional email validation checks the availability of the specified domain name
• "Credit Card (AMEX/Diners/Discover/Master Card/Visa)” : when selected, RSForm!Pro checks if the submitted card information are valid
• "USA ZIP Code" validation: checks if the submitted values are USA valid zip codes.
• "Phone Number (123-456-7890)" validation: - check if supplied value is a valid phone number
• "IP Address" and “URL”: only valid IP addresses and URL-s will be submitted
• "Regex" validation: when applying this validation rule, advanced users can create their own validation patterns.

RSBlog! revision 7 comes with several new features and improvements:
Facebook comments, Google +1 button, a new module for displaying popular blog articles, support for standard Joomla! content plugins.

In a couple of days, Joomla! 1.6 will reach end of life and will no longer be supported.

All Joomla! 1.6 users are being advised to upgrade to the latest Joomla version, 1.7, before 19 August 2011.

If you have migrated your websites to 1.7, then you’ll be happy to find out that ALL RSJOOMLA! extensions (except RSTickets! - not to be confused with RSTickets!Pro and RSForm! - not to be confused with RSForm!Pro) are compatible with Joomla! 1.7.

We’ve performed multiple tests and code optimization to assure that all our extensions are stable and ready to be used on Joomla! 1.7 websites.

RSFiles! revision 8 comes with several new features and design improvements: Joomla! 1.7 compatibility, briefcase folder with group permissions and RSMail! integration.

1. Joomla! 1.7 compatibility

We’re happy to announce that RSFiles! is now compatible with Joomla! 1.7. We’ve performed several tests and code optimization to assure that RSFiles! for 1.7 is stable and ready to be used in production environments.

Joomla! 1.7 is just a few days away!

A final Joomla! 1.6 version (1.6.5) has been released, fixing an issue encountered in the "Extension Manager Update", mechanism which will provide a seamless upgrade to the upcoming 1.7.

Along with this release, we've updated RSFirewall! with Joomla! 1.6.5 hash files.

If you're running RSFirewall! on your Joomla! 1.6 installation, we recommend updating both Joomla! and RSFirewall! to the latest revisions and perform a new "System Check".
