Any Joomla users here?

i'm using joomla to make my all kind of sites. you can convert joomla what you want

 

I've played around with joomla and would go back to it if there was a extension for joomla to use a feature simular to drupals "Taxonomy(sp?)" and custom URL features. Anyone know if they make such a thing?

 

For custom URLs in Joomla OpenSEF is extremely useful and although I've never used it I know Phil Taylor does a "tags" plugin for Joomla

 

Joomla is the best CMS I've ever tested. But I will NOT recommend it to novice users, because if you want to modify it you need to understand PHP.

 

Yup I run about 5 joomla sites, it is great

 

I have a few sites on Joomla too ... its a great flexible CMS with tons of components.

some of my Joomla sites (or sites I did):
www streetracing ro
www tt-studios com
www radutrifan com
www dnaracingworks com
www thebiggestcommunity com

 

Does anyone know any modules or plugins to modify the joomla's url? I want it become SEO friendly like Html. Please help me thanks

 

Joomla has core SEF functionality built-in but for really friendly URLs I use OpenSEF. There are other SEF plugins but that's the one that works for me. You'll need *nix hosting and to be able to use your .htaccess. Once you're in the config settings you can do a ton of things with your URLs.

 

I found openSEF last night. I got everything installed and setup this morning. I'll look into the "tags" plugin. I know by default Joomla includes the meta keywords with a news post. I just loved the way drupal included them printed on the page. It made catagorizing so much easier. But I switched back, worst comes to worst I'll write my own plugin to do it.

 

I use joomla on my site, http://www.1delacruz.info. My favorite component is JoomSEF. =)

 

It might be a good idea to use a test server (like JSAS) or test site to configure OpenSEF and have a play about first... and if you like it and use it don't forget to donate them a beer

You'll have to give Phil Taylor a beer before using his plug-ins as they're commercial releases.

 

You may also try XAMMP

 

I wouldn't recommend using the meta keywords function in OpenSEF. It tends to spit out a lot of garbage. I realize you can filter out words and characters, but it's more time consuming than typing in keywords in each piece of content as I go. I do like the site description feature though.

 

joomsef does a good job but its has problems with non english characters if i remember well(at least with Greek it has)

 

Just remember to change: charset=iso-8859-1" /> to what ever language you are using.

I had some other components installed, and it didn't work that well with latin words as: Æ, Ø, Å, but after removing the components I've never had any problems.

 

i have been using joomla for about 2 yrs and its really great.

 

Ive been using Joomla just afew months and have sites running on it, neither are complete though:

wbmcarpfishing.co.uk
bctvcrew.co.uk

No active links... Im a new member!

 

joomla is the shit... i must say, there are so many extensions that make it very powerful

I just built this site with it, its still under construction though:

Old Time Radio and Classic Cartoons

 

u mean in index.php of the template?
