CB MySQL Field Plugin
The MySQL field type plugin adds a “MySQL Field” to the available list of CB fields. It does not actually add a new field to the database and cannot be edited by the user. It simply queries the database and displays the result of a MySQL statement. Another Community Builder field can be defined for saving the result of the query if required. You can choose whether the query will return a single result or multiple and define up to 5 parts of the MySQL query including the SELECT, the FROM, the WHERE, the ORDER BY and the LIMIT clause. You can also use {USERID} and {VIEWERID} in the WHERE clause which get substituted for the user’s ID and viewer’s ID of the currently viewed profile. You can restrict the query to only execute for the user and/or viewer as well as add a prefix, delimiter and suffix to the output. Installation Instructions – Install the plugin through the CB Plugin Management page – Publish the plugin on the CB Plugin Management page – Add a new “MySQL Field” type from the CB Field Management page – Define a MySQL query and set the other parameters as desired

Attachments for content articles
The ‘Attachments’ extension for Joomla! allows files to be uploaded and attached to articles and other types of content. ‘Attachments’ includes ability to attach and edit files from the front end as well as from the administrative back end. There are options to control who can see the attachments and who can upload them, along with many other options to increase its flexibility and usefulness. INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE: Use the Joomla installer with the single installation zip file. The component and all plugins are installed in a single step. You may watch a video about this new version of attachments on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-nCbRbfJ9io&hd=1 . (The video refers to release 1.4, but 1.4 was renamed to 2.0.) Release 2.0 Attachments uses the Joomla “upgrade” capability and can be installed over previous versions of Attachments. It has only been tested it with v1.3.4 but it should work with earlier ones. It includes code that updates the database tables, etc. OBVIOUSLY, before installing/upgrading a live site I STRONGLY encourage you to back up the files and the database so you can restore it if there is a problem. If you would like to subscribe to an email list for announcements about the Attachments extension, please visit: http://jmcameron.net/attachments/email-list.html Release 2.0 has been significantly refactored and enhanced. It adds many new features and improvements including simplified installation, ability to “attach” URLs, improved options to control where attachments are displayed, files are saved in separate directories (no more prefixing!), more flexibility to “Who can see” and “Who can update” options, unicode handling in filenames, significant improvements in the adminstrative back end, and a new capability to add attachments to content items other than articles (with additional plugins). Other features include optional secure attachment file storage and downloading, options to control the display of the attachment descriptions, file sizes, uploader name, and modifications dates. Three user-defined fields are available. Attachments can be completely managed through the component manager in the administrative back end. The ‘add attachments button’ plugin adds a button at the bottom of the article editor to simplify adding attachments while editing articles. You may now add attachments during article creation. The search plugin enables searching attachment filenames and descriptions. The ‘Attachments’ extension is 1.5 native and does not work on any Joomla 1.0 release. If you plan to use this extension for sensitive files, use the ‘Secure’ mode. This provides secure storage of attachment files and prevents access by anyone without logging in. This extension will prevent uploads of file types not allowed by the Media Manager in order to prevent attaching of potentially dangerous file types such as HTML and PHP. You can add additional types (such as zip) via the Media Manager settings in the “S

Easytagcloud
Easytagcloud is easy and effective tags cloud module. Please read the instruction carefully bellow before you decide to use this extension. ==================================================================== April 30,2010. Update to V1.1beta! *Modified few codes to make Easytagcloud be able to pass W3C validation! *Now the sponsor link is removable! ==================================================================== The features: 1. The tags come from the keywords of each article; 2. Easytagcloud display the hottest tags in alphabetical order; 3. You can set 6 kinds of font sizes and the 5 kinds of density ratio of the tags; 4. Easytagcloud does not update the tags automatically, you need to initialize the tags manually. (It was designed to improve the efficiency of your website. Please read the instruction below to know how to initialize the tags) Why should I initialize manually? Easytagcloud will not add any table in your database and it won’t query the database for the tags if your initialization is done. Easytagcloud will query the tags needed from the database and build them as an array, then write them into a file “tagsdata.php”(so make sure tagsdata.php is writable) during the initialization process. How to initialize the tags? When do you need to initialize the tags, just set “Init the tags data” to “Yes”, then refresh your website and the initialization is done. Don’t forget to set “Init the tags data” back to “No” when you have done the initialization. Your feedback It is not easy to develop a extension, and it is even more difficult to make the extension meet the requirements of each individual. If you find any problem or have any suggestion, you are very welcome to submit your review or contact me directly via my email.I will solve the problems as soon as possible. YOUR SUPPORT IS OUR MOTIVATION, YOUR DESIRE IS OUR DIRECTION. Thank you!

DB Show
The module DBshow displays data from a mysql table. No need to understand SQL! Just tell the module the database login and which columns to display. You can choose to show the rows as ordered or unordered list or as a table. You can provide a header and footer text. A column can be specified as a date column. The module is especially useful to display a list of calendar dates. April 2010: new Version 0.9 (some bugfixes).

Replication
Replicate your website (file, file) and / or database (tables). It creates an environment of pre-production (for group work prior to publication) and production.This solution allows you to easily clone site You can have a mirror while managing exceptions (file, file, table) and can be used to re-install a site in minutes after haking. The system uses “rsync” available on all servers linux in general (even on shared hosting like to OVH for example). The setup is simple: Site “A” to site “B”, without exception, Database “A” to database “B”, depending on the action plan for each table. Replication is the only component Joomla (currently) to do this.
