Joomla! 2.5 - Beginner’s Guide
Chapter 1
Introduction
Welcome to Joomla. It is a free system for creating websites. It is an open source project, which, like
most open source projects, is constantly in motion. It is unpredictable, sometimes indescribable, partially
controversial, quite often very sexy and, at times, a little sleepy and provincial. Nevertheless, or perhaps
because of these reasons, it has been extremely successful for six years now7and is popular with millions
of users worldwide.
Concerning the question whether to write Joomla (with a !) or Joomla (without a !) after years of
finding out people reached a consensus:
Use it once in the first instance of Joomla and then forget it!
The word Joomla is a derivative of the word Jumla7from the African language of Swahili and means
"all together".
The Project Joomla is the result of a heated discussion between the Mambo Foundation, which was
founded in August 2005, and its7 then-development team. Joomla is a development of the7 successful
system Mambo. Joomla is used all over the world for simple homepages and for complex corporate
websites as well. It is easy to install, easy to manage and very reliable.
The Joomla team has organised and reorganised itselfthroughout the last six years
From 20057to 2009, Joomla 1.0 was7further developed up to version 1.0.15 and that development
•
was officially laid off7in September 2009.
From 2005 until now, Joomla 1.5 is still being7 developed, was7 introduced as a stable version in
•
January 2008, and will officially 'end of life' (EOL) in April 2012.
From 2008 until 2011, Joomla 1.6 was developed. A stable version7has been7available since January
•
2011.
In July 2011 Joomla 1.7 was released
•
Joomla 2.5 is the first long term release (LTS) since Joomla 1.5 was released in January 2012
•
(coming soon :) )
The users of7the Joomla system remained faithful. Many7 transferred their websites from Mambo to
Joomla and they7have learned a lot over the years.
Many users have climbed aboard in the last few years7 but there are still people in the world who do not

Joomla! 2.5 - Beginner’s Guide
know about the system. Joomla, together with Drupal and WordPress, are the most used open source
web content management system in the world.
Figure 1: Google Trend 2012-01-17 worldwide Drupal, Joomla, WordPress
In Figure 1, Joomla and WordPress are on the same avarage level according to Google search volume
trend.7Joomla and Wordpress are searched three times as7often as7Drupal.7However, the search volume
for Joomla has been declining since 2010. It was time for Joomla to start rethinking with the release of
the Joomla 1.6 version in January 2011 and Joomla 1.7 in July 2011.7

Figure 2: Google Trend 2012-01-17 Germany - Drupal, Joomla, WordPress
Compared to the world average, the situation in e.g. Germany is different (Figure 2). Joomla has
almost twice as large of a7 search volume as WordPress and WordPress almost four times as much as
Drupal.
Here are a few statistics from Google Trends (Table 1):

Table 1 Google Trend - Drupal, Joomla, WordPress
There are7 significant national differences in the use of content management systems. In Germany,
for example, the CMS TYPO3 also7plays a role. The search volume is comparable to Joomla.
In January 2012, 2.8 % of the entire web is powered by Joomla
16
The range of Joomla websites goes from very simple homepages to complex business applications
and projects based on the Joomla Framework. What makes7Joomla so successful, and the ways in which
you can use it, will be described in this book.
WHO AM I?
My name is Hagen Graf, I'm 47 years old, and7I live in Fitou17, France. I am married7to the woman of
my dreams and have four daughters.
My work consists of many different activities such as teaching, advising, listening, testing,
programming, understanding structures,7 developing new applications,7 questioning, and always trying
something new.
Actually, my work can be done7 completely online but sometimes clients may7 have reservations
about7fully online projects,7which is why I am7on the road a lot. Being on the road means meeting clients
in different countries with different languages and cultures, long car, bus or train rides as well as very
short response times to customer enquiries, Facebook messages and tweets.
This way of working has implications for what I7once used to call7"the office".
I need to be able to have access from anywhere in the world to my e-mails, pictures, videos, tweets, and
documents. My office is located where I am.
WHO ARE YOU?
Of course I do not know exactly what you do, but many people whom I have worked with work in a
way similar to myself. Employees of larger companies however, for various reasons, often cannot or may
not work as flexibly. Your own experience with computers is probably similar to mine. Many of us started
with an older PC and a Windows system at school or at home, and then got to know from experience the

Monday, 30 January 2012! Page 19
Joomla! 2.5 - Beginner’s Guide
harsh reality of office applications, data loss, insufficient memory, and hard drive and printer
configuration adventures. The wonderful relationships between these things have been changed with the
user-centred way of Web 2.0 and the use of smart phones, but this does not necessarily make it easier.
If you do not love messing with passion at night with your operating system or telephone or sorting
your photos and music, and moving them all from one device to another, then you are probably just like
me - happy when your devices and applications are working, when you can access your data on the
Internet and all is working smoothly. If you work from a home office, a smooth work environment
becomes particularly important. Non-functioning soft- and hardware can quickly turn your situation into
a nightmare.
I distinguish between7the following types of users:
Visitors: They visit a website and they do not care7much about7the system you used for creating the
•
site.
Users: They use the website. They create content7using pre-defined procedures.
•
Website Designers or Integrators: They install a Joomla site on a server, create categories, content, links
•
and menu modules, configure templates and languages, are all-rounders and usually have the7 sole
responsibility for the website.
CSS Designers: They7often like to work7exclusively with files that have the extension .css.
•
HTML Designers: They give CSS Designers the foundation they need for their work. In Joomla,
•
they create the so-called template overrides.
Developers: They know the programming languages PHP and JavaScript and like to use them. They
•
enhance the Joomla core with additional functions.
Architects: They think about security, speed and code quality.
•
The7 website designer7 plays a special role in this list.7 He usually7 has to cover all other roles,
which7 constitutes a real challenge. As I am writing this book, I often7 find myself thinking about the
website designer.
A company, an institution, a club, an organization, yes, probably everyone, needs a web presence that
is user-friendly and flexible. A presence - one that develops over time, can easily be changed via a web
browser. This presence can replace your filing cabinet and leather address book; this presence can
communicate with different devices and it can be extended easily.
I assume your website already explains what you do or what your company does. This is your place
where you maintain your customer relations 24 hours per day, seven days a week.
Your website probably contains7a collection of applications and data summarising your activities. Your
site should also contain interfaces7to allow7other applications to use them.

Joomla! 2.5 - Beginner’s Guide
Until a few years ago, the creation of a website was a difficult thing to do. Whilst you did not have to
be a renowned specialist, a combination of7perseverance and7having7fun with7what you are doing7were
necessary to produce appealing results. You had to create static HTML pages in an HTML editor and
then upload them via file transfer protocol to a server. To create even the7simplest interactivity such as a
contact form or a forum, you had to learn a programming language.
It is more than understandable that many people did not take this hardship on themselves and handed
over the creation of a website to a web agency or did not even start the project in the first place.
Thanks to Facebook and kits such as Google Sites, creating simple web pages has become relatively
easy7but if you want something unique, you should7become familiar with7a content management system.
Joomla offers everything!you need to!create your own, individual website.
WHAT IS THIS BOOK ABOUT?
First of all, it is about Joomla and how to use it.
Joomla is a tool with lots of possibilities and you can use the system in a huge variety of
configurations, depending on your ideas and wishes.
In order to allow comfortable access, I have structured the book as follows:
1. This Introduction

28. Resources?
Although you are a beginner, you will be able to manage7your own Joomla website via a web browser.
If you are somewhat familiar with HTML, CSS and image editing, you will be able to customize a
template for your website.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS?
Don't hesitate!18 Of course, I can't deliver technical support. The Joomla forums provide a wealth
of7 knowledge and you will definitely7 find answers to your questions there. If you have comments or
questions about the book, however, please feel free to leave them in the comments section below.

Showcase
What do websites look like when they were created with Joomla?
This question can't be answered easily as most websites are based on the Joomla software, but the
design is created by an agency and then "transformed" into a Joomla template. Therefore, the exterior of
a website can be deceiving. Nevertheless, here are some screenshots to give you an idea.
ALLIANCE FOR CATHOLIC EDUCATION - UNIVERSITY OF NOTRE
DAME
The Alliance for Catholic Education, or ACE, uses Joomla 1.7 to manage their multifaceted web
presence. ACE is a collaborative effort of twelve different programs all working to strengthen and sustain
Catholic schools in the United States. Joomla, along with the Gantry template framework, allows ACE to
maintain twelve unique sites in one through the use of Joomla and Gantry's multiple template options
(eg: http://ace.nd.edu/teach is a unique homepage for one of the programs within the site). All of
ACE's units build off the same Joomla instance and database, maintain a strong visual connection to the
main homepage and also share the same features for all members of the organization including: an
integrated news feed, online membership, a JomSocial Network, several blogs, a job-board and an online
catalogue of publications.
Some of ACE's favorite extensions are: Yootheme's Zoo, Sh404sef, JCE, JSPT and Socialable's
Autogroup.
Future plans involve integrating a CRM (CiviCRM) to function within the Joomla framework. (Figure
