A number of 3rd party Joomla! extensions have been created to extend the core Joomla+CiviCRM functionality. These include extensions to display CiviCRM resources in module locations, authentication and user access controls, and CiviCRM link building tools. This page summarizes the available extensions and their development status. The extension downloads are available on each extension's detail page.

Support for these extensions will be handled through the Joomla Extensions forum: http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/board,48.0.html or through their respective issue trackers (github, etc.).

Note that these extensions are not part of the official CiviCRM package, and are not supported by the core development team.

CiviSearch Plugin

CiviCRM Group Sync

Compatibility: Joomla 1.6+; CiviCRM 4.+
Code/Package: https://github.com/lcdservices/CiviCRM-Group-Sync

Use this tool to dynamically add contacts to ACL groups as they register for events, complete profile forms, etc.

Use the github download button to generate an installable zip package. Please log issues/feature requests using the github issue tracker.

CiviCRM Base Plugin

Compatibility: Joomla 1.6+; CiviCRM 4.+

In CiviCRM v3.4/4.0+, hooks can be more easily accessed through a Joomla plugin. This means you can segment your hook implementations into separate plugins, if desired, similar to how Drupal modules work. A sample plugin is available to help get you started building code for hooks.

CiviAuthenticate Plugin

Compatibility: Joomla 1.5, 1.6+

This Joomla! plugin replaces the core Joomla authentication plugin and let's you control access to your site based on membership status or group membership (including the ability to both include and exclude based on group status).

CiviEvent Module

Compatibility: Joomla 1.5, 1.6+
Code/Package (1.6 version): https://github.com/lcdservices/CiviEvent-Joomla-Module
Details: CiviEvent Module (wiki page)

This Joomla! module displays a list of events in a module position. It is configurable based on event type, select events, or date range, and may provide links to the information page, register page, combination, summary text, and other options. Multiple instances may reside on a single page.

CiviUser Component + Module

Compatibility: Joomla 1.5

The CiviUser Joomla! component replaces the core Joomla user component, and is used to restrict user account creation based on the user's membership status. The user registration form runs additional checks to match the firstname, lastname, and email with existing CiviCRM records, and then to confirm if they have a current membership record. If so, a user account is created and connected to the CiviCRM record. Else, the user is given text (configurable through the parameters) explaining why an account cannot be created. A corresponding module is provided to replace the core module.

CiviLinker Component + Plugin

The CiviLinker component and plugin allows the user to insert links to CiviCRM resources in articles and CustomHTML modules through a plugin button. The button opens a modal window with options for creating links to events, contribution pages, and profile pages.
