JoomlArt is excited to announce our second round of Joomla 1.6 Templates on the JoomlArt T3v2 Framework. You will find 3 new templates, including JA Teline IV, JA Cloris and JA Rave in this batch of releases. Thanks for all the great feedback so far! Look for more releases next week.

JoomlArt is excited to announce third round of Joomla 1.6 Templates based on the JoomlArt T3 V2 Framework. JA Purity II ^free, Teline III and JA Ores comprises this release. Thanks for all the great feedback so far, userguides for these newly released templates will be released in their resective forum in the coming week.

We are now rolling out our 4th shipment of Templates for Joomla 1.6, based on the JoomlArt T3 V2 Framework. JA Rasite , JA Lime and JA Events comprises this release.

There has been a lot of confusion around Joomla 1.6 recently. After 3 years of heavy coding this major upgrade has been finally released in early 2011. Right now many users are wondering what 3rd party support for J1.6 will look like in the next months. Does it make any sense to start a website in J1.6 at the moment? How long should I wait until making any movements for my clients?

Finally we got it out! Surely you have noticed from the homepage that we have changed the design several days ago. Thanks to the design team for their creative effort to improve accessibility for visitors. This is a major design refinement since our Joomla site update from June 2010.

We are happy to roll out JA Edenite as last of the upgraded template for Joomla 1.6, based on the JoomlArt T3 V2 Framework. July will see regular Joomla 1.6 template being released. August onwards, we shall have templates for Joomla 1.7 and all Joomla 1.6 templates will be taken up for upgrade to Joomla 1.7 and once completed, we shall resume the upgrade of older templates to Joomla 1.7.

Recently JoomlArt has been recommended by webhostingsearch.com as BEST WEB TEMPLATE provider to their community (listed under Web Tools directory).

Great news. According to plan, Joomla 1.7 has been released today, you can get it on Joomla.org. Major enhancements in the new version include: the ability to define custom search presets, better protection against form manipulation through automatic validation, language specific font settings, and more. Upgrading is painless and takes you only ONE CLICK.

JoomlArt has a few openings for Joomla-experienced  to provide support in our Forums and Support Ticket System in full time and part time capacity.  If you are experienced with Joomla, and particularly with JoomlArt's templates and extensions, and have spare time on your hands, then this is an outstanding opportunity to join JoomlArt’s superstar moderators who help serve JoomlArt’s growing 200K+ community.

Today we are trying out something interesting. We switch on Facebook comment for the few next posts to be used parallel to our in-house comment system and want to get a feel of how users react on this move.

We all thank you!

This Christmas we are offering flat 40 % OFF across all memberships and renewals, also featuring exciting deals from our partners.

So the new year is here and we are really excited about lots of things we'd love to make happen in 2012. However, before we share our coming goals, let's look back at what we achieved in the now gone year 2011.

Roadmap for updating our Joomla 1.7 products to Joomla 2.5

Preliminary testing reports have revealed some minor issues with our templates and extensions when used with Joomla 2.5. The power of JAT3 will make upgrade tasks easier and faster. However, we still do not release anything without routine testing / checks. No hasty releases will be done just to be first to the post. Customer satisfaction is our ultimate goal.

Joomla 2.5 has been released a few weeks ago and we have updated 25 Joomla templates (for JATC) to version 2.5. Including 30 extensions (16 plugins, 13 modules, 1 component). During the Joomla 2.5 update progress we fixed 421 issues (bugs, errors etc.) all within 1 week.

A few reasons behind this:

1. JA Wall requires some advanced configuration and setup. We need to provide detailed and thorough userguide before the official sales.
2. 2 core themes should be fine tuned and all core HTML/CSS markups must be solid and stable before we add the 6 styles.
3. We will try not to change HTML/CSS markup after the stable release, we want to keep them FOREVER so that other developers/3rd party extension company can develop additional style / feature for this template. By maintaining a solid code base for layout/design, we can avoid incompatibility problem with any future update/release.
4. Developer Members can contribute valuable feedback and help us ironing this template to become a popular grid-style basetheme for Joomla.

Hello folks,

IE7 has been around since 2006. Up to now, roughly 4% market share for IE7 in the browser market worldwide. Most of the giants had dropped support for IE7 like Google, Facebook, Drupal, and Microsoft- its creator encouraged users to auto-update to the latest version of IE.

We have been debating on IE7 Support for a year now and finally decided to say Goodbye to this 6 years old browser due to the followings:
