I’m always tuning my template for Joomla. Most tweaks are related to Joomla template CSS file. Reality is – it is hard to adjust all Joomla CSS classes at the beginning.

This title looks strange, though it points to one big Joomla problem. If you want to display different modules within different sections of your site, you can be in trouble.

Front page is the face of most Joomla sites. And it is not surprising that you would like to configure layout of this face. It is very simple task and Joomla offers some flexibility to do this. However, each time I want to reconfigure amount of columns or quantity of content articles that I want to display, I’m spending some time trying to figure out how to do this.

Insertion of AuctionAds or Google AdSense into your content is really simple. There are some Bots that are designed to help you to do this, but I feel that they are not required. Just follow these steps and you will get your AuctionAds displayed wherever you want within content of your Joomla site.

Some time ago, while browsing John Reese’s blog, I found his interview with Jeremy Shoemaker about various ways to make money (other then adSense specifically). One part of this interview was dedicated to the Jeremy’s new project- AuctionAds .

Open SEF is a great component. It adds essential functionality to Joomla and replaces strange looking url’s with human readable and search engine friendly url’s. Even more. Url’s could be configured to reflect logic structure of your site. It works excellently. Notwithstanding, I started to notice strange behavior from my menu, category appearance and problems with some modules.

When I joined the Joomla community I was very impressed by Joomla flexibility and functionality. The core element of this functionality is the template system. You can think about the template as a container with a determined look and feel.

you want to integrate banner, AdSence or other scripted code into your pages? Download JCE editor, Bot and Script plugin. Install them and enjoy new options. Seems to be easy. But for somebody it is confusing.

Upgrading your Joomla site to a newer version is something that you should consider dew to some bug fixes, security updates and compatibility issues with some external components. It could be painless if your previous version of Joomla was installed through Fantastico script.

Favicon is a shortcut for favorite’s icon. It is a small graphical file, associated with particular web page or website. My favorite FIREFOX browser displays this icon in front of address bar.And most of modern web browsers would place this icon in front of bookmark. This small logo will make easy recognizable bookmark of your site and will help to memorize your link in favorites folder.
