Newbie (Joomla)

Hi,

I am noob when it comes to joomla as i have always been working with ASP and was ignoring php, but now a days everywhere php is in demand.

So as i am going to start working on php, hopefully i will take some classes, what should i do, should i wait till i learn php

or i should start working on joomla ? php knowledge is not required ?

Any video tutorials for joomla for a noooooooooob

Please advice
Thanks

 

Read official site joomla.org
And more - just google it!

 

I hate anwsers like "google it"

When people google for anwsers ......they find "google it"

 

This site:

Should give you a good idea of the basics.

Cheers,

J.

 

The official manual of Joomla will help you.

 

Check out Lynda.com they have a joomla dvd there and i am sure you can find it somewhere.

It is good for newbies and will help out heaps.

Small php needed html will be fine

 

if you want to make your own module or component, php knowledge still required in joomla CMS ...joomla is like oracle dbase ..you can choose your module or component suits your need ..

 

I don't know anything about php and I have a good joomla site up and running. It wasn't that hard but I did get a fatal error and have to go back to a save. That was because I found an upgrade to a plugin and did not uninstall the origonal one first so pay attention to the instructions.

 

Great answers. I really appriciatte it.
