Building a conference (or any other) website doesn’t begin with design; it starts with a clear plan for content and functionality. As developers and organizers, we know a beautiful site is useless without a strategically organized approach. In this article we'll explore how to make the most of Joomla Core to build a conference website that delivers.
In Joomla 5.2, the Articles Module was introduced, a new module that should replace the existing modules (Articles - Archived, Articles - Category, Articles - Latest, Articles - Most Read and Articles - Newsflash). The Articles Module combines all parameters of the old modules, includes new ones and enables you to showcase your articles in different ways.
Ever wished you could use a filter to refine your search results? Nadja Lamisch shares with us how to do it with just core Joomla. No extensions needed!
This tutorial explains how to add extra fields to the Joomla Contact form using Custom Fields. The process uses core Joomla functionality, requires no third-party extensions, and is fully upgrade-safe.
You’ll learn how to create a field, configure permissions correctly, control where it appears on the form, and ensure submitted values are included in the contact email.
What if you could have different colors and other styling for each category? With the Articles - Categories Module, you can - and all it takes is a few small tweaks. Joomla offers many modules, but some powerful ones go unnoticed. The Articles - Categories Module is one of them, and with a few small code and CSS tweaks, it can do far more than expected.
With the release of Joomla 5, the reCAPTCHA plugins were removed from Joomla core, for a number of good reasons. The downside was that the Joomla core was left without a captcha integrated by default, meaning that forms could only be protected against spam using third-party plugins. The good news is: that is going to change again. We’re introducing a better, native and user-friendly solution, built in Joomla’s core and not depending on third-party services.
Small layout changes can make a big difference to how content is perceived. One of the most effective improvements you can make to a category blog layout is to treat the leading article differently from the rest — visually signalling that it matters more.
On my site I want to have a module listing all the blog posts sorted by date. We can do this out of the box using the new mod_articles (since Joomla 5.2) module.
Joomla’s built-in access control system is one of its strongest features and restricting content in this way is a very common requirement for membership sites, magazines, online courses.
When managing a website, content changes are inevitable. Articles get updated, pages evolve, and information needs to stay current. But what happens when you need to undo a change or review who edited what? That’s where content versioning in Joomla comes in.
