Great news!
I think the option that we've put in place especially for those of you that have really purchase some JCB packages, like the Advanced Demo Component or the Sermon Distributor Component, this will be excellent news.

### Demonstration And Suggestions Of future Changes On Import Component Area
[00:00:20](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h00m20s)
Let me demonstrate what we've done and also makes suggestions of future changes on the import components area
there is an extra tab. With this tab you can easily import paid or free Components [00:00:39](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h00m39s) that we distribute. It's called the VDM packages. It took a moment to load it, it does take a while because at the moment it queries GitHub and checks and gets a list of all the latest packages. If we updated GitHub it will automatically show the new packages. [00:01:01](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h01m01s) We will be adding more free options. We are planning to add some more free packages. At the moment there is only 2. Most of them are paid. You can buy any of these packages and use it in anyway you like.

### Hello World And Demo Version Is For Free
[00:01:24](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h01m24s)
The Hello World is free and the Demo version is free. You could, yes you can get any of these and if you've already purchased Sermon Distributor version, you can just select it here. Because JCB is constantly improving and so Sermon Distributor is also improving. We are making changes to Sermon Distributor and if you want to update yours or even if you have played with it and you want to reset it, but know remember [00:01:52](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h01m52s) if you got a reset it, it will reset everything including every field and even Field Types. Do keep that in mind that if you install this package over the existing one, [00:02:07](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h02m07s) it will revert everything back, what is great though, is that Joomla keeps history. If you put your history on for the JCB component, so that means you could take a step back and some of those areas if you want it. That's just a little side note.

You select the package you want to install and then click on Get Package. This will take a while as it's downloading it from GitHub. Please make sure to read all these things I didn't even go through that but [00:02:37](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h02m37s) you should read all of these packages, all that is written there. You should end up at the page which we usually would shows you who made the package. If you still didn't get the key, you could click on this 'sermondistributor' link to go buy the key, [00:02:55](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h02m55s) and get it for any of the other packages as well or before getting here, there's a link that says buy packages, you could also click on those and then select the package you like. Here it'll show you the component that is being installed which is says is [00:03:12](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h03m12s) SERMON DISTRIBUTOR 2.0.2 which is the latest version. You then add your key here. Which I will do in a moment and then click Continue. Which then makes it install.

What the suggestion is at the moment, we can go back there for a moment to importing components. The suggestion is to have even a 5th tab. So there will be this tab VDM packages and then a Community tab. Which those of you in the community who want to share [00:08:04](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h08m04s) free components, we could add that in here. We are still thinking about the sharing paid components. We still think about how that could work. Of course at the moment it shouldn't become too complicated, because if you click on anything [00:08:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h08m28s) and then click Get Package, that package has internal variables which decides what this values going to Be. If we would [00:08:42](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h08m42s) click this googlePlusProfileFeed value, it takes you to my shop where you then purchase that specific product. That is a valued determined by the package. Which means it shouldn't be that hard for us to include paid options, paid components. What is a little bit of a challenge, [00:09:06](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m06s) is whether JCB should ask for a little bit of a contribution to support a project in this way. We are still discussing that.
If anyone have a suggestions please post it here at the bottom of the video, make comments, tell me what you think. The end of day we want to make sure that the community can use this [00:09:33](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m33s) in long run that it becomes a nice tool. I'm even thinking of moving this option, this whole getting to Importing of components, To an actual tab, On the desk on the dashboard. So you can get to this page without having to first go to components and then click through here. [00:09:54](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHvawooT67s&list=PLQRGFI8XZ_wtGvPQZWBfDzzlERLQgpMRE&t=00h09m54s) There is even that kind of discussion. But just for now we wanted to demonstrate the new feature. It's been able to do that already. We just didn't have that extra tab but you could have copied the links to those packages on GitHub and have imported them that way. That's should what the ReadMe files would have shown you if you purchase any of these keys.
