Welcome to Joomla! This is the world's most popular CMS (that goes for Content Management System) web site engine. Modular and versatile. Way more than a blog and a tad less than expensive big corp owned Java monster web applications. Let me tell ya something: Joomla is the Volkswagen of the web era!
How to get one? Simple do:
Write Erik a short message (click this link); or
Fill in a Joomla! secure installation feedback form so we may know to get in touch with you ASAP.
It's ultimately turning down to the infrastructure, to the hardware (enhanced security servers cluster) and software elements burried deep inside the LAMP web hosting ecosystem (where LAMP goes for Linux Apache MySQL PHP)... Then what would be a Volkswagen without the marvel of the Autobahn.
And what's a Joomla! without web hosting excellence for Free... (go click this link to read what you get for the cents).
Here comes the (*)asterisk note, in same font size as the GRAND offer above:
IF and only IF you've taken your Volkswagen (Joomla! is the e.Volkswagen, remember?) from our service labs, then you may ride it TOLL FREE for three months time!
Everything we do means: Joomla! installing, customization, hosting, maintenance, upgrading, migration; template code customization; component code customizing and new component creation; module code customizing and new module creation; search engine friendly (sef) URL installing, customization; SEO (aka Search Engine Optimization) consulting; PSD to XHTML hand code template creation; and... click here to ask for something.Joomla! we forgot.
Everyone means: YOU!

Virtuemart not Showing Category Tree when Adding New Product
Written by GeorgSolution:
Sometimes you really want your latest posted article to show up on top of the stack on your fancy dandy groovy Joomla site. Quite a normal desire, I might add...
An always excellent start is to go in your Joomla backend > Menu manager > pick up your menu > edit menu item > parameters [advanced] > Category order / Primary order > Most recent first; apply and check it out. If not properly sorting your articles in the frontend blog, then keep reading...
Say you have to clone a Joomla site. If you do that through normal SSH, or [S]FTP if you're having time, and phpmyadmin, then, when coming the next Joomla upgrade, you'll have to do that by hand: same SSH, or FTP.
Here's a way to clone a Joomla site while keeping it under Fantastica script install and inherent one click button upgrades follow-ups:
Quite some of our customers were asking us to develop customized complex feedback forms in Joomla, detailed down to the tiniest design pixel positioning. See this example, for instance, on ellco.no - where we used Joomla Artforms' practically infinite customizing capabilities to deliver specially crafted forms.
Help, I need to change the welcome to the frontpage title tag in Joomla
We want to help you out with how to change the title tag in Joomla. Yes, we are talking about the frontpage title tag. The one you are "stuck" with when you install Joomla 1.5 or later. This title is "Welcome to the Frontpage". Annoying, isn't it.
When cloning Joomla sites on custom inhouse servers, it happens that Flex_header won't catch up correctly with SOME of certain menu itemids unless:
- You clear the cache of sh404.
- You then disable the component entirely. No need to uninstall it, just check the NO button in the 'Enable' configuration field.
- Then do some casual browsing over the frontend, make sure the Flex_header rearranged images are catching up correctly. If so, go on and enable the sh404SEF component.
Oh BTW, our Joomla!People team has just opened a web utility for servicing PSD to XHTML template hand coding requests. This goes for more than Joomla! Check it out here at secure-installation.com - yes, enhanced security web hosting included, if needed...
When having to insert special [custom] tags in articles code, Joomla 1.5.8 will invariably filter them out. And that's bad, at first glance: think you're having to embed some flashy ajax objects or some Youtube vids for that matter, or even the nice invisible ones sitting on top of news articles destined to show up in RokNewsRotator.
The cause: starting with J1.5.8, the default Article Filter setting is set on 'black list' for every user level. This means no more playing around with fire - read XSS [cross site scripting] attacks.When Joomla 1.5.x is having the core SEF enabled, it's gonna overwrite .htaccess instructions, like this one:
ErrorDocument 404 /404-oops.html
...where you're gently telling the Apache to redirect nonsense urls to a nice and comprehensively helpful page.
Now, here's the workaround inside Joomla code:
