Easy Articles Does what it says on the tin.

David Lowe (7).
Posted on 13 September 2025

Functionality

What this great extension offers in terms of functionality goes behond what you need in this type of module. Options in abundance.

Ease of use

The module installs easy, the options are easy to setup and are vast.

Support

I Had to use the support, not because of the mod itself but it was my own mistake but the support was fast and quick to resolve my issue.

Documentation

You dont really need the docs because its easy to setup with a great admin area plus as mentioned backed up with great support.

Value for money

How this can be produced and maintained at this exceptionally value for money price is a credit and help to the joomla community- well done.

I used this to: To show news snippets on a different page of the website from past articles to the near future on what the business is upto, which displays in a fantastic and engaging way.

Just what I was looking for

Functionality

A lot of work has been put in this little module. It does more than you think and it costs less than you would expect.

Ease of use

Excellent! One problem: To configure carousel's item count, you have to switch layouts to Grid, select your columns and back to Carousel.

Support

I had a presale question on whether I need to pick all articles by hand or just choose a category. I got a timely response: Auto by category

Documentation

Practically not exists. It only describes the absolute basics. How to set a module in a template position etc. Not required though.

Value for money

Excellent price. Less than what you would think for what it has to offer. I would suggest it without a doubt.

I used this to: A carousel of testimonial articles in the home page. My only problem was that I could not set the carousel item count to 1 on all screens. I had to look through code, switch the module layout to Grid, then select my columns and switch back to Carousel. Everything else is perfect.

Simple to use module - with strong Functionality

Documentation

Value for money

Excellent value for money. Asked for some modifications which was charged at an acceptable rate.

I used this to: Article slide show in a mobile orientated site - offering 2 sets of links
