Module to export child templates
Dimitris Grammatiko has published a module on GitHub that allows you to easily export the child templates of your site. In the description of the module he makes it very clear that it is intended exclusively for internal use by agencies to be able to port these themes to their clients and in no case for mass distribution of child templates.
Submit your ideas for guided tours in Joomla!
Olivier Buisard is looking for ideas and suggestions to improve the guided tours in the new Joomla 4.3. Among his list of requests, he already has the ability to import and export these tours and also to make it easier for extension developers to easily integrate the tours for their extensions. If you have any requests or suggestions for guided tours, don't hesitate to send him a note!
JoomlaVerse in 2nd week of May 2023
In this week, the Joomla world has been busy, and we have the following relevant publications:
- Tim Davis in his Maintenance Monday tells us why we need to disable "Send copy to sender" in the Joomla contact form, and in his Watch Me Work session, he has fun with Joomla category descriptions
- DJ-Extensions has written an article about their extension DJ-Classifieds
- Astrid on the Joomla User Group Mayen website has written an article with the solution to a problem they had on their site with the RSS feed. Maybe it was a coincidence, but last week I reported the problem in the German-speaking Joomla community channel ;).
Regarding Joomla events:
- JoomlaDay Netherlands started on Friday, the 12th. You can follow it on social media with the hashtag #jd23nl
- On Thursday, the 18th, we have the Small Web Development Business JUG meeting where Peter Martin will talk about simplifying content management using the d2 profiles extension (in English). You may sign up now through their Facebook Page.
And these extension updates:
- JoomShaper has updated several of their extensions. Now SP Property, SP Soccer, and SP Movie Database are compatible with PHP 8
