Looking for some killer, low-cost components for your Joomla-powered website?

Two new(er) commercial extensions directories aim to fill the void that has occurred since the Joomla Extensions Directory (www.joomla.org) began removing popular commercial extensions from their directory July 1.

The first, is CMSMarket.com. Part directory/Part CMS developer community (JomSocial-powered, no less), CMS Market features extensions & templates for mambo, Drupal, Wordpress, and of course Joomla.  New extensions are added daily, so please do check them out!

The second, is the Commercial Extensions Directory for Joomla at http://extensions.ijoomla.com   Brought to you by the folks at ijoomla, it now boasts over 457 commercial Joomla extensions for your website as well as a growing list of FREE extensions for your to download. Check them out, too!

We're proud to announce that our most popular components have all been added to the "Top 50 Joomla Extension" List at www.waterandstone.com. Out of over 4000 extensions, we're honoured that 3 of our products (JomComment #7, JomSocial #43 & MyBlog #45) made it onto their "top 50" list.

Here is an excerpt of that article:

"With more than 4,000 Extensions in the Joomla! Extensions Directory, one of the most daunting aspects of selecting a Joomla! Extension is finding the right tool for the job. With thousands of Extensions to choose from, you are sometimes faced with multiple options that appear to achieve your goals. While there really is no subsitute for downloading things and trying them out yourself, in this article I provide a list of fifty Joomla! Extensions as a starting point for addressing common needs.

This article is excerpted from Ric Shreves' upcoming title,the Joomla! Bible, from Wiley & Sons. That book is due for publication in early November and can be pre-ordered directly from the publisher at www.wiley.com...."

I've seen quite a number of users requesting this and have been working hard on the user management. Although it feels like this would be a duplicate of Joomla's user management, after testing our own dog food, we found out that proper user management is really needed. For an instance, for me to view another user's detail, I would need to do it on the front end by browsing / searching for them and it would not be possible to edit them. This feature might be included in the next build as it is pretty handy for site administrators.

Here's some teaser for you guys ;)

As expected, the new Joomlart template JA Sulfur with its built-in JomSocial theme has been released!

Check it out here:

Stay tuned for an upcoming Rockettheme JomSocial template & theme as well as a GavickPro JS theme coming very soon!
