Personalise your Joomla website by installing different templates. Templates allow you to easily skin your website, giving it the look and feel that web users see when visiting. Since Joomla is an open source software, there are already thousands of free templates to choose from on the Internet. More customised templates are generally sold by designers to those needing something a bit more unique.
Our Hosting Control Panel, cPanel, makes installing the latest version of Joomla a breeze using the built-in software installer called Softaculous. Softaculous provides users with a one-click install option, taking any headache out of the setup process.
Keeping Joomla updated needs to be a priority if you do decide to use this software. Not updating Joomla can leave your website open to security attacks and vulnerabilities, and that can be detrimental to your website and/or business. Beyond keeping the site safe, completing updates will often leave you with not only better running software, but often additional features as well.
The Joomla Release News section provides notices on the latest version of Joomla, along with a list of all the additional features and links to update instructions.
Extensions are added features that can be integrated into your website by installing a small package. For instance, there are extensions that help you pull your Twitter tweets into your pages or create amazing photo slide shows. There is really no limit on what you can do with Joomla seeing how their website alone hosts thousands of extensions.
Browse through all of them in the Joomla Extensions Directory.
The Joomla community for the support forums alone is composed of nearly 400,000 members. Since the software is open source, the community and volunteers are those that manage and support it. Most people will find that answers to common questions and errors will be responded quickly and there are always groups and workshops popping up around the world to gain more expertise and insight.
In Australia, these workshop opportunities include:
– Sydney Joomla Day
– Melbourne Joomla Day
