HowToJoomla 4.0 Coming Soon!

February 13, 2010 | by Cory

I started HowToJoomla on September 8, 2006 with a post about Must-have Joomla! components. In that time, the site has seen 120 new articles, 3 different designs, and 5 guest writers. We've seen the site grow from a one-man blog/tutorial site to a 50,000 unique visitors-per-month, 5-writer team of Joomla! experts sharing insights, tips, and tricks on our favorite web content management system, Joomla!.

As we look toward the future of HowToJoomla, we realized that the current design just wasn't going to be sufficient to fulfill our vision of providing useful, accessible information to the Joomla community. To that end, I am pleased to announce the upcoming launch of HowToJoomla 4.0! Here is a sneak peek of the new site.

A New Joomla Community Initiative on Twitter: #how2joomla

November 22, 2009 | by Cory

The team over at TechJoomla have started a new Joomla community initiative on Twitter called #how2joomla. Although the name is the same, this initiative is not affiliated with HowToJoomla.net in any way. We think this is a great idea, and we wanted to bring it to everyone's attention. The idea behind it is that if you have a question about Joomla, you can tag a question in a post on Twitter with the hash tag #how2joomla, and other members of the community will step forward to answer your question in that thread. So head over to Twitter and post your questions! Add a comment
