We have a new release of our popular extension for Joomla and Virtuemart, GooglebaseXML.

This extension allows you to create an XML product feed for your Virtuemart store for upload to Google Merchant Centre. The latest release, version 3.0.0, for the first time is compatible with Virtuemart 2 and Joomla 2.5 as well as 1.5. 

We also have an updated release for Virtuemart 1.1x and Joomla 1.5, version 2.1.0. This includes some minor changes to update the feed to the latest Google feed specification.

The extension includes many features designed to give you an accurate and informative product feed that closely matches the Google feed specs. These include:-

• Product variant display
• Support for additional product attributes such as size, color etc
• Support for the Google Category attribute
• Additional countries, those supported are now: United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, the Netherlands, Spain, Italy, China, Australia, Brazil, Switzerland and the Czech Republic
• Support for sale_price, and sale price effective date attributes
• Additional product images
• Feed can use Virtuemart product type data fields

For the first time both releases allow you to choose whether or not to display prices including tax by passing this as an URL parameter - useful if you want feeds for both the US and European countries.

We have a new release of our module controller for Virtuemart, VM Modcontroller Pro. This module allows you to control the display of any other Joomla module on Virtuemart pages. It allows you to assign modules to Virtuemart pages (including specific flypages or browse pages), categories, and shopper groups.

For example, if you just want to show a module on the checkout page, or the main category browse pages, or for a particular category, or even to a particular shopper group, this module allows you to do this.

The new release, version 1.2.0, includes additional options to filter by manufacturer, to exclude specific categories, and to filter by SSL/non-SSL pages. Also for the first time we have a version of the module that is compatible with Virtuemart 2 and Joomla 2.5.

Joomla 2.5 is now released. This is the new stable version of Joomla, with a planned life-cycle of 18 months. Joomla 1.5 is a fine content management system, but, now it is finally here, 2.5 offers many enhancements.

We are in the process of updating all our extensions to work with Joomla 2.5, so far those which are compatible include the following:-

• Featured Items
• Featured Items Pro
• Featured Items Carousel
• Featured Items Slideshow
• NewsTab
• Jigsaw
• Random MP3 Player
• Random MP3 Player Pro
• Random FLV Player Pro
• Mail This Page
• Amazon Web Services Content Plugin
• Swiftgallery
• Articles Count
• Template Joomla Piano Pro
• MasterUser Plugin

Most of our remaining extensions are designed to work with the Virtuemart e-commerce system as well as Joomla. We are currently updating them to work with both Virtuemart 2.x and Joomla 2.5. Due to the very substantial differences from Virtuemart 1.1.x this will take some time, but we plan to make them available over the course of the next two months.

We are happy to announce the release of our new image slideshow module for Joomla 1.6/1.7/2.5, Mod Panelsider. This module displays your images in an attractive and unusual scrolling javascript slideshow. The display consists of a main image with previews of the previous and next images in two semi-opaque side panels.

This is our first extension release designed specifically for Joomla 2.5: we wanted to take advantage of some of the advanced features only possible with Joomla 2.5.

The module comes in 3 versions: the basic version which requires no external extensions, a version for Ignite Gallery, and a version for FW Gallery.
