Joomla Automatic Content (obFTRSS) component released new version 1.5.8 (2010.05.17)

The most important feature is Plugin support. This Joomla Automatic Content works with K2 content and FLEXIcontent perfectly, this feature requires K2 Automatic Articles Plugin & FLEXIcontent Automatic Articles Plugin. In other words, this Joomla Automatic Content component can grab Automatic Articles for K2, and Automatic Articles for FLEXIcontent.

"--- WHAT IS K2? --- The powerful content component for Joomla!

K2 provides an out-of-the box integrated solution featuring rich content forms for items (think of Joomla! articles with additional fields for article images, videos, image galleries and attachments), nested-level categories, tags, comments, a system to extend the item base form with additional fields (similar to CCK for those acquainted with Drupal), a powerful plugin API to extend item, category and user forms, ACL, frontend editing, sub-templates and a lot more!

Using K2, you can transform your Joomla! website to a news/magazine site with author blogs, product catalogs, work portfolio, knowledge base, download/document manager, directory listing, event listing and more, all this bundled under one package!

Give K2 a try and you'll instantly love it! It's easy to use and fun to develop websites with! If you need any help or want to contribute to the project, join us at the K2 community." - Joomla Extensions Directory

"FLEXIcontent is primarily an advanced content management system developed to replace the native article manager of Joomla! 1.5 (com_content)

It adds the professional features required to build a collaborative web publishing system.

Even if it’s not its primary purpose, it can also manage records by presenting them the way of a directory.

Thus, FLEXIcontent was designed to manage content in a broad sense, and can organise articles, image or video galleries, job offers, product catalogues, business directories, a.s.o. within a single user interface.

This means for the end user, unparalleled simplicity of use, everything happens in one place. Mastering 10 components to be able to administrate an entire website isn’t required anymore.

For the web designer it means also the end of the headaches for the maintenance and updates of all installed extensions.

FLEXIcontent is an extension for Joomla! developed in 1.5 native mode and complying with the naming and coding conventions of the Framework (MVC frontend and backend). Thus, its portability to future versions will be greatly facilitated." - Joomla Extensions Directory

Please find out K2 & FLEXIcontent plugins on the product page.

We also fixed some small bugs, and here is changelogs:

+ K2 Automatic Articles support (require extra plugin). + FLEXIcontent Automatic Articles support (require extra plugin). + Add Tips ~ Optimized the component GUI. ~ "Wrong image path in PREVIEW mode" bug fixed. + Add link to section/category in the News Feed list. ~ Improve Strip HTML Tags layout. + Option to add pre-text & suf-text for articles. + Import News Feed from com_newsfeed
