Total Newbie to Joomla

I just started using Joomla about a month ago, after many years of using Dreamweaver to create websites. I was asked to do a site for a Chamber of Commerce, and wanted a way to display the Member's articles that looked nice, organized, and wasn't hard to do. I bought Raxo All Pro, then quickly also bought three of the templates and I couldn't be happier.

It was easy to install, easy to configure, easy to implement and I've used it pretty much everywhere on the site now.

The support is great, I got quick answers to the few questions I had. The forums are great for reading others questions and seeing the solutions. In fact, one question I asked, I figured out the answer simply by reading the forums.

Definitely worth the money!

A bit misleading...

This module does what it says, but it is a bit misleading in my opinion.

1) It may be "highly customizable", but that is only from the backend/style sheet perspective - don't get this module if you are looking for something that has an easily configurable interface. The interface is very limited.

2) The "cool" looking examples on their site are not free. They should also tell you that up-front. When you buy the core module, you get 3 basic templates that are pretty undesirable. To get the module to look like what they showcase on their website you have to purchase additional templates.

There are other modules that are capable of doing more and are cheaper or even free.

This is likely a great module for those wanting extensive control and willing to do backend style sheet/template creation, but it is not an easy plug and play module that will give you great results.

Amazing Job and Elegance!!!

We needed a module to display headshots and small bios of committee members on a site. Looked at a few alternatives and then found this. Although designed for "news items", its so easy and flexible to use for any "1 image + text" type of content that you need to display. I quickly created a new template to suit our clients needs and this module is now in our toolkit of "must have" extensions. Nicely written, easy to use and well documented. A rare triumvirate. Well done Raxo.

A Must-Have

I have to say this module saved my life. I was using another module (a free one) and it was giving me so many troubles. I wasted hours and hours trying to customize it.

When I started working with Raxo it was just so, so easy to get the result I wanted! However, I had a problem, I contacted support and in 5 mins. I had the solution in my inbox.

It is very, very easy to customize both the CSS and the templates. Highly recommended!

excellent!
