Recently I was at the 2014 JoomlaDay Sydney. It was a fantastic day and great to see so many familiar faces. A wonderful group of speakers, great location, food, atmosphere and Joomla! What an amazing, powerful, mighty application and it is all for FREE! The Joomla CMS, it can do so much and has so many amazing features: ACL, content versioning, over 65 languages supported, downloaded 10s of millions of times, runs about 3% of the Internet and growing. This all appears to be very positive, however, I am sorry to say this, but this is also a sign of what we are doing wrong!

This issue is a big one! We have lots of articles and, very happily, lots of photos. The one thing we always do each month is try to find a relevant image to go with articles that were submitted without one... not so easy when you are searching for something interesting to go with an article full of code.

Je vous en prie, ne jouez pas avec la sécurité de votre site Joomla!. N'utilisez sous aucun prétexte de terme du dictionnaire pour les mots de passe de Super Administrateur d'un site Joomla! et n'oubliez jamais qu'internet foisonne de robots malveillants, souvent mis en place par des personnes mal intentionnées dans le but de numériser et collecter les mots de passe d'administration des sites Joomla! et Wordpress et cela en moins de temps qu'il n'en faut pour dire "Brian Teeman" ou "Nick Robertson".

I set out to the Joomla! World Conference seeking inspiration and to learn how to create better websites. Little did I know it would also turn into a great vacation with a visit to a Mayan archeological site, morning yoga sessions on the beach, enjoying varied dance performances, great food and perfect weather. Remember, there were four simultaneous presentation tracks running concurrently in English, and one in Spanish. What follows includes brief descriptions of what I took away from the sessions I chose.

The last four years has seen quite a lot of excitement in the Joomlasphere as the community continues to grow and the software continues to be driven by innovative ideas. As with everything in a quickly evolving software marketplace, platforms come and go and Joomla! 2.5 is no different. Today we reflect back on its nearly four year life span and the framework it laid for Joomla to grow.

Delivering transactional emails is considered one of the most recursive and important tasks for a website owner. If your transactional emails fail to reach recipients’ inbox, it will be difficult for you to have the benefits of an automated email transaction. An automated email transaction is heavily dependent on a reliable SMTP server. However, using an ordinary email service provider such as Yahoo Mail, Gmail and Hotmail has its restrictions. This is because they allow only a certain number of emails to be sent by a particular user per day. You might be thinking what is a smart solution for transactional email delivery and how to configure it?

Some of the readers out there may know that I have been audio podcasting about Joomla for almost two years now.January 2015 will actually be the two year birthday of the Joomla Beat Podcast, one of the many passions in the Joomla Community that I have been carrying on almost every week. I was proud to hear also that I had inspired someone in the Spanish speaking community to start their own Joomla podcast in Spanish! Something I’m very excited to hear more about and see grow over the next few months.

À part ceux qui seraient partis en vacances dans le désert profond ou qui n'auraient pas lu les Réseaux Sociaux durant ce mois de novembre, je pense que toute la communauté Joomla! a suivi un des événements majeurs de l'année, la Joomla World Conference qui se produisait à Cancún au Mexique du 7 au 9 novembre dernier. Et pour ceux qui n'auraient pas eu la chance ni d'y aller ni de suivre l'événement, permettez-moi de vous donner mon regard de primoadhérent. ;)
