In the last few weeks, we at El-Tech where working for new Israel/Hebrew Joomla based website with an advanced portal functionality. The website www.bal.co.il - מגזין באלאנס is a new portal with a touch for sport ,life style and health.

The website owner have chosen to release the improvements we at El-Tech made for some components during my work to the global Joomla community.

com_artbannersplus, Statistics, Graphs, MyVideo (new video comp.& 2 new modules), joscomment latest comments scroller and more.

 The bal.co.il portal is running some new components, modules and mambots (plugins):

1. com_myvideo -  a new component to manage YouTube and Google video on your website and website content. the component can learn to work with new video suppliers and streams.
   
   basically this component is working with the AllVideos mambot (plugin) with some improvements to the mambot itself like: soutfile.com and the israeli Flix.co.il is now supported for presenting video on your site.You can now manage the video's on your content to show anywhere you want it with two new module working with the component:
   • show a specific video.
   • show the last added video (contetent created date).
     
     
   Component will be release next month - you can see the a live demo here:  www.bal.co.il
