NOTE: Do not test in live production site. As with all extensions, every web environment is different and the use of any 3rd party extensions can cause conflicts. We also suggest you back up your site before installation.

We built each of our components for our internal use based on our clients and our specifications. After many requests, we prepared releases of each component to the public! Our components are sold AS IS. Any features and functionality that are not currently part of these components that you need can be developed for an extra fee or as these are all open source, you can use the components as a basis to build your version on.

Often our customers come back to us and want features and functionality added that is not currently built into the components. Although we did our best, and we are constantly developing our components, there is no way to foresee what everyone of you want, need, or expect. A function that you want is not an omission or a bug. The components work AS IS based on the original specs. Refunds are not given because you want a feature or function that is not included, and we do not do further development specifically to meet your specs for free, as we need to pay staff also.

We use all of these extensions on our own sites and our clients sites, so we find bugs before any of you do, but, if you find bugs (and a bug is not a feature or function that you want but is not available), please let us know about them as we are constantly working on improving our components for their next releases.
