Community Magazine

Al principio de mis desarrollos con Joomla no tenía una idea amplia acerca de los elementos que debería de tener una página web que la hiciera en lo mínimo atractivo para los visitantes, es sabido por todos que la experiencia permite crear un aspecto mental más claro de lo que en un principio era una duda. 

Hace un año atrás dimos comienzo a un sueño dentro de la comunidad Joomla!, el paso inicial para la incorporación de otros idiomas en Joomla! y lo hicimos de la mano de la Joomla! Community Magazine. Hace un año 4 personas nos reunimos en un chat de Facebook, Manuel Rubio de España, Carlos Rodríguez de Cuba, Andoitz Brit de España, Guillermo Bravo de Chile y comenzamos a gestar lo que ustedes ven hoy día, la Revista de la Comunidad Joomla! edición en Español.

Este artículo explica los cambios realizados a JLayouts para Joomla! 3.2. La mayoría están enfocados a mejorar la flexibilidad del sistema para los desarrolladores de extensiones.

Esta RJ (Revisión Joomla) es sobre una herramienta, que ha despertado un interés muy grande dentro de la comunidad Joomla. No solo por el hecho de que el sitio está completamente en español, sino que su herramienta creadora de componentes Joomla brilla por su excelencia.

Joomla! 3.2 está a la vuelta de la esquina. En tan solo unos días podremos disfrutar de todo lo que nos ofrece.

Mit mehr als 164 User Gruppen weltweit gibt es immer etwas Neues oder Aufregendes aus der Joomla! Gemeinschaft zu berichten und ich hoffe, dass ich es schaffe, hier monatlich eine Zusammenfassung zu posten über Gruppen, Events und Berichten zu JUG Treffen.

Konum bazlı fotoğraf ekleme ve takipçileriniz ile paylaşma servisleri arasında yer alan bir Google hizmeti olan Panoramio Google Earth ile entegrasyonu ile hayli kullanışlı bir servis. Çekilen resimlerin konumu itibari ile etiketlenip ayrıca konum bilgisi ile beraber paylaşılması sonucu dünyada bir çok bölgeye ait resimleri bulabildiğimiz çok geniş bir veritabanına sahip. Tabi bu servisi ilginç kılan en önemli sebep resimlerin Google Earth servisi üzerinden de görüntülenebilmesi.

With the upcoming Joomla! CMS releases, the new MVC will play a major role. Through my Google Summer Of Code project, I've taken the initial steps for that.

This article follows the introductory article in Joomla magazine July issue (https://magazine.joomla.org/issues/issue-july-2013/item/1366-module-modernization). In this article, I will briefly introduce some of the new modules which will be added to Joomla in near future and few of the new features such as module ACL and global configuration.

This article introduces you to the new JLayouts features in Joomla! 3.2. Most of the changes are focused in improve the flexibility of the system for third party developers.

As a technical writer, I think Opensource Matters is missing an important marketing opportunity by not targeting Joomla! at the professional writing community. By "professional writing community," I don't mean novelists, poets, or publishing company editors (though, Joomla! would be great for them too) - I mean professional writers in the corporate world: technical writers, instructional designers, and marketing personnel. While the professional writing community is a smaller, more-niche market than the corporate CMS market and the software development community, I have thought for some time that Joomla! could be the next "killer app" for professional writers.

Anyone who knows me knows I have a bit of a sweet tooth and I'm a sucker for chocolate, cheesecake and ice cream. It's extremely hard for me to walk past the local gelato shop. As I yield to temptation, I'm affronted with an assortment of flavours and mix-ins. I can choose between standard or sugar cones or have it in a cup. I can tailor my order for the likes and dislikes of my family, and get serving sizes that are realistic for their appetite (or my budget). Decisions, decisions ...

This month I'll try to clarify how Joomla works for users without any technical knowledge. We will start by defining Joomla as a CMS (Content Management System). That means that Joomla does... what? It's easy: Joomla allows you to manage any "content" on the internet which covers just about anything you can think of.

Tra le tante nuove funzionalità rilasciate con la versione 3.2 di Joomla!, forse una delle meno pubblicizzate ma sicuramente molto utile per amministratori ed interessante per gli sviluppatori, è la cosidetta "post-installation messages", informa l'amministratore del sito circa l'avvenuta installazione di estensioni e funzionalità che richiedono la sua attenzione, vediamo nel dettaglio le sue caratteristiche e come usarlo.

I was a JoomlaDay virgin. I had not been to a JoomlaDay anywhere in the world. I had not organised a JoomlaDay ever before. Back in February of 2013 when my co-organizer, James Foreman, said he wanted to do a JoomlaDay in our area, I had no idea what was ahead.

I sometimes come across Joomla sites that are built only for blogging. There are a lot of possibilities: you can use Joomla native , K2, and all sorts of CCKs. Today I decided to test an extension from the community choice extensions poll from several months back. Let's put EasyBlog from Stackideas on the bench...

Dear Joomla! developers, jQuery is already installed in Joomla! 3... KNOCK IT OFF!
