- With DOCman, we already had the defacto document manager for Joomla, however, there was never an easy way to search within uploaded documents.
- With FILEman, we already had the perfect file manager for Joomla, however, uploading website-ready resized images was a tedious and time-consuming task.
- With TEXTman, we already had the most focused content editor for Joomla, however, finding and uploading the perfect featured image for an article could also be also very time-consuming.
We built Connect to solve these problems and help you spend less time generating website content and more time on the rest of your workload.
Indexing documents
Connect can index your documents and let your users search for text within them, supporting more than 20+ file formats in any possible language.
Connect can even index text in images as it offers support for OCR (Optical Character Recognition).
Generating file thumbnails
Connect can automatically generate thumbnails for your documents and files.
This is not such a big deal you might think, well it is, Connect doesn't only support image files, it offers support for 20+ formats including PDF, document and video files! And it does that unrelated to the file size, got a 1GB video? We got your back!
Already got existing files? No problem, once you install it, Connect lets you scan all previously uploaded documents in one go.
Finding featured images
Finding the perfect image to use for an article can be frustrating for content editors. Connect solves this by hooking up to unsplash.com for endless inspiration.
That's not all. Once you've found an image to use, Connect will automatically generate thumbnails, regardless of the original image's size, as well as the responsive website-ready versions of the image. Ready, set go!
Validating email addresses
The DOCman Leads plugin lets you collect the email address of users who download your documents. Connect lets you validate those addresses, helps to combat spam and prevent typos in the email address.
