Product Description

Product Description

Do you want the ability to manage documents, photos, and other content over the Web but don’t want to shell out thousands of dollars in proprietary solutions? Want to create an online community for your hobby or user group? You’re not alone. For thousands of like-minded around the globe, the answer is Joomla!, an open source content management system used to manage all sorts of data over the Web. While Joomla! is relatively easy to install, a fair amount of knowledge is required in order to configure the application to your specific needs. Beginning Joomla! answers many of the questions you’re sure to have, guiding you through the process of creating your own design templates, adding and managing content, and adding popular community features such as article commenting, user profile management, and forums. Later chapters discuss e-commerce integration, explore search engine optimization, and show you how to extend Joomla! by creating your own plug-ins.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent introduction to Joomla, 26 Nov 2007
By Mr. P. E. Edwards "peteremrys" (Wimbledon) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It is a challenge to write a book for a beta version of any software. However, the current version (1.5) is pretty stable and is well supported in this book. It is highly readable and practical. It assumes a knowledge of CSS and HTML but manages the balance between novice and professional very well. Be aware that there is a great deal of useful material on the Joomla site and on associated forums so it is worth being aware of this efore you buy. Overall, though I recommend this book.

1.0 out of 5 stars Displeased!!! Dont buy!!!, 13 Sep 2007
By W. A. Mazza (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book recommends using joomla 1.5, which isn't necisarrily a bad suggestion. However, 1.5 is still a beta version at the time of this writing and at the time I recieved the book. This obviously creates some problems. For example most extensions for joomla 1 don't work, despite the "legacy mode", including JCal which was recommended for use in the book.

I found chapter 13 to go into very little detail aswell, and I could have used a lot more help there. If your going to be using joomla 1.5 understand that there is much less support for it at the moment and you may well be better off going with version 1 still. This was written september 2007.
