Como se concibe dar nuestro VIRTUEMART 2.6.6 al español ya que por default viene en ingles tanto Joomla como VIRTUEMART

With the latest updates in Joomla 3, many improvements have been introduced regarding Microdata (sometimes also called Rich Snippets or Structured Data). Some recent articles in the Community Magazine already explained the technical backgrounds of the implementation and the workflow for developers. However, many still struggle to understand where they can see this and how they can benefit from the SEO advantages that microdata give on a practical level.

I would like to share my first J and Beyond event experience with you, the Joomla! community.

The once very popular Singleton design pattern has become an anti-pattern. From hero to outcast. Like a sportsman who was caught doping. What happened?

Lo scorso mese si è svolto nei pressi di Francoforte, l'ormai consueto evento Joomla and Beyond 2014, una delle più importanti conferenze per la community Joomla a livello internazionale.

When I landed at Frankfurt airport, I was not sure what to expect. That was a first time in many levels for me: my first time in Europe, my first time in Germany (which I longed to visit for decades) and my first time at a J and Beyond.

There are a variety of Joomla! Events scheduled throughout July and August spanning North and South America, Africa and the UK. Joomla! User Group (JUG) meetings and JoomlaDays are intended for everyone from casual users to core developers. The Joomla! Developer Conference, to be held in August, is intended for experienced developers and programmers interested in developing with the Joomla! CMS and Framework. Visit the Joomla! Events Site to browse all events, submit an event or learn how to organize an event.

I’m honored to have been part of the first JoomlaDay in Russia ever last Friday. I met a vibrant community with a broad and deep knowledge of Joomla. It also has a great passion to grow the community even more. It was my first trip to a JoomlaDay event since I was elected president of Open Source Matters, and also the first time I delivered a keynote session with live translation. My session was called “You, Me and the Joomla Community” where I told my volunteer story. A big thank you to Anastasia Gabidullina, who translated my session.

Quando aterrisei em Frankfurt, não sabia bem o que esperar. Essa viagem foi a primeira vez de várias coisas: minha primeira vez na Europa, minha primeira vez na Alemanha - um país que queria visitar há anos - e minha primeira vez em um J and Beyond.

Imagina: Tu usuario se registra y elige la combinación de colores y estilos que desea tener cuando se loguee en tu sitio. No es nada complicado. Un pequeño plugin que explote el potencial de crear perfiles de usuarios, disponible a partir de j2.5 y unos cuantos archivos css nos pueden dar excelentes resultados.

What do the World Cup and Joomla have in common? They bring together people on every continent, focusing all their attention and energy on one objective. The 2014 ball design even reminds me of the Joomla logo. As many of us cheer our home teams, and those of our friends, let’s take a look at a new goal coming up on the Joomla Community Magazine…

For the 3rd time the website CMS Critic organizes the annual Critics' Choice CMS Awards. Help Joomla to get more exposure... by nominating it for a CMS Critic's People's Choice Award!

Last month the world embraced and celebrated Pride Day in hundreds of cities around the world… In May, during JoomlaDay Brazil, I was lucky to attend my first Pride Parade in Sao Paulo, one of the largest in the world, with more than a million people marching, dancing and celebrating the diversity and pride of who they are.

Junio fue un mes de bastantes anuncios y movimiento dentro de la Joomla! Esfera hispanohablante, algunas novedades, nuevos equipos y Grupos de Usuarios han aparecido en el escenario.

Les 23 et 24 mai dernier s'est tenue la 8ème édition du JoomlaDay™ France à Paris. Organisée par l'AFUJ (Association Francophone des Utilisateurs de Joomla), cette manifestation est le carrefour annuel des afficionados de notre CMS préféré. Le JoomlaDay est aussi et surtout l'occasion de rencontrer des personnes que l'on ne connait parfois que par le biais d'Internet. Des belges, des algériens, des suisses, j'y ai rencontré une russe de Vladivostok (bon ok, elle habite maintenant Bruxelles) et un japonais arrivé le matin même en direct d'Osaka. Tel que je l'ai vécu, c'est un fantastique carrefour culturel et intellectuel.

GSoC 2014 - SQL Optimization Project for Joomla CMS was the project I am involving at the moment. After spending more time on getting familiar with the Joomla core at the moment I have implemented several queries and hope to carry out the project in order to meet the final outcome.

Hello folks! I am currently working on this project, writing testing scripts for Joomla CMS. I have spent enough time on understanding the Joomla testing code base and I hope to improve it and increse its coverage so that I do not leave any area untested. I hope to complete my project within the timeline I have provided.
