Only one edit window! How do I create "Read more..."? PDF Print E-mail
Written by Mehmet Cekin   

This is now implemented by inserting a tag (button is in the editor area) a dotted line appears in the edited text showing the split location for the "Read more...". A new bot takes care of the rest.

It is worth mentioning that this does not have a negative effect on migrated data from older sites. The new implementation is fully backward compatible.

 
What is the FTP layer for? PDF Print E-mail
Written by Mehmet Cekin   

This allows file operations (such installing extensions or updating the main configuration) without having to make all the folders and files writeable. This makes the site admin's life a lot easier and increases security of the site

You can check the write status of relevent folders by going to ''Help->System Info" and then in the sub-menu to "Directory Permissions". With FTP even if all directories are red, Joomla! will operate smoothly.

NOTE: the FTP layer is not required on a Windows host.

Joomla! makes it easy to launch a website of any kind. Whether you want a brochure site or you're building a large online community, Joomla! allows you to deploy a site in minutes and add functionality as you need it. The hundreds of extensions will expand your site and allow you to deliver new services that expand your reach into the Internet.

The one thing about a website, it always changes! Joomla! makes it easy to add article, content, images, videos and more. Site administrators can edit and manage content 'in-context' by clicking the 'edit' link. Webmasters can also edit content though a graphical administration panel that give you complete control over your site.
