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:

JA Brisk - JoomlArt November responsive template for Joomla! 2.5 & Joomla! 3.0

We have been receiving the same questions over and over again from you guys:

• Do you guys have a rough idea when exactly your template will be available for Joomla! 3.0?
• OMG, when are you guys are going to release Joomla! 3.0 templates?
• Are you sure you are going to have Joomla! 3.0 template anytime soon, 'cuz I'm not informed at all on you guys' intention toward Joomla! 3.0?

A few days ago, we introduced the Layout Configuration feature. We're here with the update, to show you how this awesome feature can be easily used in JA Brisk - our latest Joomla! 3.0 responsive template.

We have recently partnered up with some of the best Joomla! extension developers and popular web services such as Cloudacess, Sitepoint, Stackideas, SnapEngage, Imaqma, Learnable, Chill Creations, Payplans, Techjoomla, Compojoom, Kissmetrics  and many more to provide great discounts and special coupon codes for all our members.

The first Joomla World Conference has started a few hours back here in San Jose and we are Video Sponsor for the event. Looking at the response the decision to sponsor was totally worth it. Its great to meet fellow Joomla guys.I just hope we dont run out of beers.

We were to have thanksgiving promotions next week but for the love of Joomla! I am kickstarting the promotion week early. Starting right now.. enjoy 35% OFF across store.

The holiday season is almost here and with holidays come the sale. Last year we gave away an Ipad2 and this year we are giving away brand new Google Nexus 10 tablet along with 35% discount on everything we have at JoomlArt.

I knew you guys has been pretty looking forward to this announcement ever since the launch of Nexus 10 giveaway campaign. Thanks for everyone for participating. We have more than 3,000 of tweets and share on Twitter & Facebook, plus 30,000+ visits to the Nexus 10 official page. This event was such a blast!!!

We have to admit: "It's quite difficult to pick out the winner!"

And it would be harder to have an online the lucky draw with you guys (even though we would love to do so!). Therefore, we have recorded a short video on the actual procedure that we did to select JoomlArt 2012's Nexus 10 giveaway winner as seen on our Nexus 10 official page:

For the past few days, we have received several reports on our forum related to unexpected virus issues detection by Avast antivirus software on our site which has disabled our member access to JoomlArt.com! Our team immediately jumped in and carefully investigated to detect the issue's origin.

We quickly figured out why Avast has defined it as a “Potentially Suspicious ” as we did implement some page redirections to our JoomlArt 2012 Thanksgiving Nexus10 giveaway official page.

Heading toward the end of the year 2012, we - the JoomlArt team - have had this ongoing train of thoughts (at least for several months now) in how to end this year and get a kick-start on our new year resolution of the future 2013 in the most meaningful way possible.

Ok, time is up and the wait is over! Thank you for your patience and now your love for Joomla Community is compensated right here with the first deal of Joomla Humble Bundle between JoomlArt and JomSocial team.

The first deal of Joomla Humble Bundle, the one with our friends at JomSocial, has been up and running for 5 days and so far $4000 has been raised for Joomla Community.
We hope you enjoyed being part of it! And in case you didn’t knew about it, the deal is still waiting for you to pick up at our Bundle page, but time is running out, so hurry up!

Mayans predicted bu world did not end, similarly, the deals are not ending at our Joomla Humble Bundle, a new deal with RED hot partner redCOMPONENT is live now

2012 has peacefully passed with the not-became-true Mayans prediction, but we made the 2 first deals come true with JomSocial and redComponent. 884 deals were sold out and the amount of $9,283.10 generated so far for Joomla! community strengthens our belief that the generosity of Joomla! supporters will make the $1M dream come true.
