Joomla problem solvers


JoomlaPeople.com have the leading developers, specialists and know-how to make your Joomla website stand out from the crowd. We do custom PHP/mySQL solutions revolving around the well known Joomla! framework. We also do analyzing and debugging of code, creating new templates, fixing old templates, components, modules and plugins. Further we also write tutorials and technical manuals, including how-to movies. This gives our clients the most complete solution from A-Z and also allows us to give something back to the community. What makes us different from other providers? Of course you will know best but we feel that our love for what we do will give you the best value for money. Many people earn their living by doing things they don't like, JoomlaPeople love what we do.
Assuming you're already having a Joomla! site up and running. Hey, it's no big deal for many to click few buttons in their hosting panel and Voila! the Joomla! website has been automatically put in place by a Fantastico script.
But what are you gonna do when it dawns on you that:
  1. The template is so... common. Your site's looks won't stand above the average.
  2. That groovy AJAX web2.something extension won't play the way you wanting. Or...
  3. You messed up some ancient good serving extensions with the latest automated upgrade of your Joomla!
What to do then?
  • First: take a few minutes tour of our Joomla!People sites so you get the feeling about who we are and what we're doing for a living.
  • Second: Ask your questions in our JP community forums.
  • Third: If you're so satisfied with our service response and quality that you can't help yourself, then subscribe to one of our Joomla!People packs. Trust me, it will save you time and money for good added value servicing.
Considering you liked the late century so much (remember the flashing fonts or animated gifs) that you don't have a Joomla! website YET. Finally, the candy competing websites (owned by other providers in your business field) stirred enough envy thoughout your brain's backgrounds to determine you make the move: dumping THE old school Dreamweaver hard coded, proprietary/tributary, non maintainable, HTML static site of yours, dump IT right away!

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.
Yes, running an online business is not JUST everything about template design, images slimming and fitting, links optimizing SEO-wise, content creation and management, feedback contact forms, e-commerce, shopping carts, communities, socio-nets, twitting, digging, flashing, youtubbing, googling or blah-ing...

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!
Well, that's a statement to stay in the e-universe, of course...

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!

Joomla 1.6 to be released in June

There are now rumours that the new Joomla 1.6 will be released in June 2009. These are exciting times because the new version of Joomla holds a lot of new improvements compared to Joomla 1.5. Joomla is currently at version 1.5.10 but the new 1.6 will soon be released.

Amongst some of the things improved is the com_contact, with a lot of help from Phil Taylor (yes, the same Phil who makes all those beautiful extensions)

The date would probably change but an alpha release of Joomla 1.6 seems to be scheduled for June 26. So keep an eye open for this new version and be sure to upgrade all your Joomla installs to the newest and safest version.

Here is a "short" list of the most important updates to Joomla:

  • Nested categories
  • Access Control (ACL)
  • Comments as standard component
  • Improved frontend editing
  • Captcha as standard
  • Improved layouts
  • Extensions updater


Other features coming in Joomla 1.6

  • Implement a new JForm library package [complete].
  • Implement a simple way of providing translation in JavaScript [complete].
  • Implement new controller dispatchers for more robust request routing [complete].
  • Implement and standardise several new event triggers [in progress].
  • Implement a JContent class that will be used by content plug-ins and views [in progress].
  • Upgrade to Mootools 1.2 [in progress].
  • Menu manager re-work -- added since it's broken in 1.6 [in progress].
  • Implement queued redirects (allows you to, for example, return to the previous page you were on after you edit something).
  • Refactor parameters and make them more extensible (for example, plugins could allow you to add additional custom parameters to articles).
  • Finish MVC-ing the Administrator components (we need lots of help here).
  • Implement systems whereby external authentication systems, such as LDAP, can map to our new Joomla user groups.
  • Re-implement the ability to select multiple categories for some views in com_content (was in 1.0, got dropped in 1.5).
  • Implement a database driven installation log.
  • Refactor JError.
  • Examine the PDF generation system in detail and see if we can make it work properly (otherwise we will look at dropping it if we can't make it work well).
  • Localise the Invalid Token messages.
  • Drop the Polls component because the quality of that extension is pretty bad and there are much better third-part alternatives available.
  • Convert all layouts to semantic, XHTML Strict.
  • Convert of ini-based "params" fields to use JSON instead of INI format (huge technical and performance improvements).  Note, the language files will remain in INI format.
