Joomla Add To Favorites Module
|
|
Allowing users to add your Joomla-based articles and Web
pages to their list of favorites is a classic way of making your site easy to
find, helping happy users to return and increasing your Google Page Rank. The idea is simple. If only putting it into practice were so
easy.
If you're looking for an Add To Favorites Module, you've
really got two choices.
MyLinks, (available here)
lets registered users store their favorite local links in a basket so that they
can easily go back to the parts of your site they like the most. You need to
install both the component so that you can handle the back-end management and
the module so that users can see it.
The other option is the jh_Favorites (available here).
This has some nice features beyond simply adding a page to a favorites list. It
also checks whether the user has already added that page and tells the
developer how many times a page has been added - a good measure of which topics
your users like. Best of all, the link appears automatically at the end of each
article, saving you the trouble of doing it yourself.
