[ezabiznetwork]

bravo good info...

btw, is there anyway i can have access to the back end of my domain if i totally forgotten the username & password?

[palen12]

@ezabiznetwork Yes there is but you need to have access to the database that holds your Joomla! Site. Message me and I will send you the details.

[Transforminence]

very good video. i could not locate the 'Section Manager' as described in the video

[palen12]

@Transforminence which version of joomla are you running? If you are running 1.6/1.7 they are all 'categories' now and you can nest them as deep as you want.

[epiem]

Great stuffs!

[palen12]

@epiem Glad you found it useful!

[gre3koshop]

3:31 haha we gonna call it 'animals" : ana... no animals xD

[JoomlaMonster]

Very useful. I see you have more presentations.

[palen12]

@JoomlaMonster Yes I do and I am making more. If you have topics you want to see covered you are stuck on send me a message and I will make the video.

[palen12]

@mironpeter what are you trying to register to? Miron, send me a private message and we will get you setup.

[Docwiz2]

Not to hijack this video, but after working with Concrete5 for the past 2 weeks and then checking this video out to see what else is out there, Joomla isn't so impressive, It really looks like Concrete5 just stomps the heck out of Joomla.

[serkia]

5:14 oh no it wont let me change it

ahahahahah

[MrPsphaxor]

@palen12 thanks for the video it helped me works great used this in wamp sever I just subed thanks man I love it.

[palen12]

@MrPsphaxor glad you liked it, I am working up outlines for an entire series of joomla 1.6 tutorials so subscribe to get them later

[tomsweeneyts]

If your looking for Joomla 1.6 Tutorials you should do a search for "joomlage Joomla 1.6 video tutorials".  I found them extremely useful as it was my first time using joomla.

[lowbar77]

Thanks for taking the time to put this together. It was very helpful!

[palen12]

@lowbar77 thank you! Subscribe to my channel as I will be posting more tutorials in the future, you can also contract me by the hour.

[BigDDe]

Can you create online ordering system for user/customer so the customer logs in, types in a couple of lines, adds/uploads their logo and the order & artwork are then given to us in a format that we can send off to a printer. Customer would need to see a proof. Can you streamline this process?

Challenge:

1. File needs to be sent to a printer we use in new York in pdf, ai, tiff, jpeg….Good thing is size and format are the exact same.

[palen12]

@BigDDe yes you can create this. It requires some massaging of code that is already out there, but it would not be that hard. Send me a message on youtube and we can talk about it.

[nirvanafrik]

So let me get this straight: Joomla! is just like WIX, am i right? Only WIX is majorly a flash-based site builder.

[palen12]

@nirvanafrik I don't know WIX, so I can't give you a good answer, but if WIX is a CMS then yes, if it is just a site builder than no.

Brock

[viruscomplex]

@palen12 its not a cms!

[suzieoreo]

I am impressed with the lack of information presented in this tutorial video.

[HBLefty]

hey there,

well i just rcently started using joomla, but ive been using Dreamweaver /photoshop for ever. Say I created the entire site before hand on dreamweaver, but my client wants to use joomla because hes familiar with it. would I have to do the entire site again using Joomla? or is there a method I can upload the site, and then use joomla for the CMS?

[palen12]

@HBLefty Sorta, you would need to turn the design from dreamweaver into a joomla! template and install it. Then Joomla! could be used to control your content. If you know a little HTML it is not hard, Joomla! has 'magic' bits you put in your needed div's that will be replaced with your content and modules. You can find online how to create a basic joomla template.

[spongebob12345]

@palen12 is it better to have a domain name before hand or after you create. ? or does it not really matter

[palen12]

@spongebob12345 it doesn't really matter, but I like to pick out the domain first, they are very cheap (hosts like MLDS just include the first domain in the hosting package). This also lets you brand the site when you build it, most sites you refer to the domain many times in the sites content.

[DarkFuryPunisher]

IDK, but-is Joomla kinda like Wordpress org? Or is it more dynamic, in terms of websites like Yelp or something like that?

[palen12]

@DarkFuryPunisher I would say it is more dynamic than wordpress but if you want something like yelp it is going to take a lot of work. You can build these addons for joomla, there is a good book I have by LeBlanc on how to do this. I would say that wordpress is not nearly as good for doing complicated things.

[r1chard34]

@palen12 Hey i have my website but its with webs.com and i have a template that i got from joomla and i want to install it but idk how to can you help me or am i doing something wrong?

[spcruising]

I'll keep trying. But I must say, this is TRYING!

[palen12]

@spcruising All I can say is keep trying. If you need help there are companies out there like MLDS who will help you when you get stuck and let you keep going on your own.

My own case when i first found Joomla! a number of years ago It confused me so much I didn't use it for a few years. I then picked it up again and it clicked. The point of this video was to explain the parts that caught me so others would not have to go though what I did.

[spcruising]

I only have a few weeks to decide to change to a new venue. I have figured out a few things in Joomla, but have LOTS of questions. Not really into reading all that copy that goes with help. Right now one story has no WordWrap..copy goes off the page. Large spaces appear. Or don't appear.

[palen12]

@spcruising A few common problems cause this. The first is a poorly designed custom template. The other is copy and pasting in articles into the editor from Word or other processing program that supports formatting (bold, colors etc). The joomla! formatting gets placed on top of the Word formatting causing issues!

If you want contact me and I can help you with this. Once you see ways you can fix it once or twice you should be able to cruse though the rest of your needs.

[TutorializedHelp]

I dont get it. It says that its free to make a websitem, but its not. You have to pay for everything else than the joomla! files...

[palen12]

@TutorializedHelp Correct hosting sites requires real resources that cost money to maintain power and keep secure.

You can get hosting from my Company with Joomla! setup for you for only $5/month which is about as cheap as you are going to get. Message me if you have more questions

[Safegold008]

Yeah really very helpfull! Thanks many help!

[palen12]

@Safegold008 no problem, subscribe, more should be coming soon!

[Safegold008]

@palen12 Hehehe, Subscribed already, before I post my comment :)

[siedzimynaventrilo]

[NIMHFS]

0:00 - 0:09 lol @ free template

[ajtrumb69]

Thanks dude. Here is a thumbs up for your useful video

[palen12]

@ajtrumb69 thanks a lot.

We are working on joomla 1.5 tutorials, with more details and more topics.

[VsimponsV]

How do i make my website public??

[palen12]

@VsimponsV you need to place joomla on a public facing web server. If you don't have one already I sell these at at MLDS. If you want help doing this ether on MLDS or on another service, please send me a message and I will exchange emails/IM's with you to get you going.

[joan2mar]

is it possible if you could help me look at my host setting. cause i dnt undersand his webs stuff

[palen12]

@joan2mar sure can I will send you a message with contact information for me.

[joan2mar]

when you edit your joomla how will it be in your site?

[palen12]

@joan2mar the look will depend a lot on your template. Is that what you are asking? If you don't wish to have an article appear right away you can uncheck the 'published' box and publish it at a latter date.

Is that what you were asking? If not provide some more details and I will get back to you.

[joan2mar]

@palen12

i mean as you edit joomla does your site edit along with it. e.g if you edit at yourdomain(dot)com/joomla/admi­nistrator does it edit your actual site?

[palen12]

@joan2mar yes it does, of course changes are not applied till you hit 'apply' or 'save'. There is currently no way to 'stage' changes.

There are features like 'start publish date' where you can write articles that do not show until a given date. This is good for many things, but if you want to edit a given page that is already public viewable and not have the changes appear till after some date or after further editing but also save the changes there is no way to do that currently.

[mahaaa32]

good

[owicobre]

thanks for this video! *****

[pavan168]

Dude if you have the RSFOrm PRO mapping submittions pluing please give me?

[zone197]

i is havein a problem with my site i wanna have a chat box but it wont go up (blastchat) it wont show up on the site could u help?

[palen12]

Sure I can, I will message you

[longbendy81]

Artisteer (the expensive version) exports excellent looking web templates to Joomla (and wordpress, and others) It's not got the flexibility of a true HTML / CSS expert coded site, but you can get something together for Joomla in about 5 minutes. If you can design some basic craphics for a head banner and maybe a couple of other things you could have a customer website, unique and just how you like it in say 30 minutes

[ssmayer]

Well done! Very helpful review!

[benbrady2]

Joomla! sucks. Drupal, concrete5, wordpress are much better.

[miklaskislo123]

i have a user on joomla but i can`t find where i can log in

[TheAndriux001]

@miklaskislo123 - watch this video one more time! .com/administrator

[jettwonder]

Very interesting. I want to earn money designing websites. This should help.

[sendingflowers]

thanks for the tutorial. very simple and it helped understand categories and sections better.

[stavrosdemetriou]

what about meta description? do you need to write them in HTML format or can you just ype it into a box that automatically turns it into a meta description?

[palen12]

For Joomla under site configuration, you can set global meta tags and description.

On per article basis there is the 'meta info' tap on the right, which lets you add an additional description and keywords to specific items.

[xxiamg0dlyxx]

Where is the website to register a joomla account to get started from the very beginning? Please help me out :o I can't find it anywhere

[stavrosdemetriou]

With Joomla do you have to write HTML code or can you highlight sentences and turn them into H1 with the click of a mouse?

[palen12]

You can highlight, there is a dropdown box in the editor that will be marked 'heading 1' which is and H1 tag. That said there is also an 'edit html' button, which lets you edit easily by hand, and see the changes. The best of both worlds.

[jorgete7]

Ok this information is really really useful but how do i register to joomla? please give me the link...

pleaseee! Thanks

[ishouldhaveknowu]

Thanks for a good lesson. This will change the way I make my website. Joomla's cool!

[tehmushroom]

Subscribed! Very helpful, thank you sir!

[ahset]

This is pretty wild stuff. I used to make websites back in the day and I had to edit html codes of each page one by one. Then there was shtml which was much easier to manage, then I worked a bit with PERL/CGI to manage my site as it got larger. What is Joomla powered by. I remember when I got out of the computer/web design/web master thing, PHP/MySql database was beginning to get pretty big. I'm a designer at heart and I would love to get back into it. Can you tell me the backend of Joomla?

[palen12]

Sure! Joomla is PHP/MySQL powered. At MLDS we run it on regular Apache on Linux. We also run Apache in a virtual machine to give isolation and quick VM migration.

I found joomla for the exact same reason. I was awful at html but I had a need. By becoming a member of the Joomla! community my time creating websites was cut dramatically and looks 1000% better. I love it.

[BlackJackEnt]

is this ubuntu

[palen12]

No RHEL, but joomla doesn't care, just apache, php and mysql

[fernandez1942]

Could you add more videos about Joomla tutorials?? This vid was the most helpful of all the ones I saw. More tutorials would be very appreciated.

Send me messages or reply with what items you would like to see covered. I will do what I can.

[Dergic11]
