Joomla! World Conference 2026

At the end of the year, magazines like the Joomla Community Magazine often publish lists with the highlights of the year. This year, we’d like to do it differently: you’re in charge! Share links to your favorite JCM articles with us, and tell us why you chose those particular articles!

For us, the Joomla Community Magazine Team, 2023 was a pretty good year. We have a steady stream of interesting content, articles written by a various and growing group of authors.

Our goal for 2023 was really modest: publish the same amount of articles as last year, plus one. We reached that goal… in October. So we set a new goal, again, a modest one: the total amount of articles from 2015, plus one. We smashed that one in November. 

Although records are nice, numbers aren’t really that important. It’s the quality that counts, the variety of topics, and the extent to which the content connects with you, the reader.

And that’s where you came in. We’ve asked you to take a minute to tell us about your favorite article(s) of 2023.

Thanks for taking the time to share your favorites with us! We'll publish a list in January 2024.

About the author

Before I got my current job as Coordinator Communications & Digital, I ran my own company for 25 years. The first 15 years I was a writer / editor / journalist / writing coach, but then I created my first website with Joomla... and I was hooked. I switched careers and became a website developer. My current job combines these two skills, so that's a win-win 🙂

Why I contribute to Joomla

To many people Joomla is just a tool. But if you look a little closer, you'll notice it's much more than that. It's a living system, raised and nourished by a community of volunteers dedicating their time to make it the best CMS ever. Without volunteers, Joomla wouldn't exist. It's not 'just a product'. Everyone who uses Joomla, can do so because someone, somewhere, contributed to it. I want to give back to the community that keeps Joomla alive.

And, probably needless to say: I love being part of that community. 

Contributing to Joomla by volunteering brought me so much: valuable experience, more knowledge and a better understanding of Joomla and its community, and the opportunity to work together with a crowd of lovely people all over the world.
