Joomla! extensions from RSJoomla! - Blog

Almost 3 weeks passed since the Joomla! 1.6 release and, as we promised, we’ve been working hard to update all our extensions.

Joomla! 1.6 support for RSform!Pro

Today, although we didn't announced an exact release date, we made one step further and finished updating RSForm!Pro for Joomla! 1.6.

We've also updated all RSForm!Pro plugins to be 1.6 compatible, along with their RSEvents! and RSMail! integrations.

Joomla! 1.6 support

There are more than 2 weeks since Joomla! 1.6 was released and we managed so far to update 7 extensions, including the today newcomers, RSComments! and RSFinder!.

The Joomla! 1.6 component list includes until now RSMail!, RSEvents!, RSFiles!, RSSeo!, RSFirewall!, RSFinder! and RSComments!.

RSComments! improvements

While updating the RSComments! source code for 1.6, we took a look at our TO DO list and added several new functionalities.

1. New placeholder in the "Notification message"

Besides {username}, {ip} and {link}, you can now use a new placeholder - {message}. This is available for the "Notification message" area.

We’ve released RSMembership! revision 16 with some major new features and several usability improvements: a new payment gateway, integration with an important affiliate program, an improved shared content platform, fixed date membership expiration and many more.

1. Authorize.Net Payment Plugin

A new payment solution is available starting with revision 16, besides PayPal and 2Checkout: Authorize.NET plugin.

Apart from the general plugin parameters (the API Login ID and the transaction key generated by Authorize.NET), in the “Plugin Manager” you can add as well the tax applied to the transaction total, the tax type and the tax value.

We’ve been quite busy these days with the release of Joomla! 1.6.
As promised, most of our extensions will be 1.6 ready (apart from RSForm! and RSTickets!).

RSEvents! compatible with Joomla! 1.6

RSEvents! now joins the Joomla! 1.6 component list, together with RSMail!, RSSeo!, RSFirewall! and RSFiles!.

I’m sure that with the release of Joomla! 1.6, you’ve been asking yourself a lot of questions:

• whether to migrate your sites to 1.6 now or wait a little longer;
• is there a migration tool that helps you move data from 1.5 to 1.6 in case you decide to migrate now?
• in case you decide to wait, what is the optimal time until migrating your production sites to 1.6?
• are the RSJoomla! extensions ready for 1.6?

and so on …

Will RSJoomla! extensions be compatible with Joomla! 1.6?

As we’ve said in our earlier post, we’re working hard to update all our extensions to be 1.6 compatible (except for RSForm light, not to be confused with RSForm!Pro and RSTickets! light.)
