  3. Install JomSocial 5.0.0: Download the package and install it via Joomla Extension Manager.

Happy 2015 to all JoomlArt’s friends,

For the benefit of our members, we are launching some additional services and we do hope these will help our members to finish their projects on time and with assured quality. On an average we get 10-20 custom requests a day in forums or in our ticket system and those within the support scope are attended for free by the team and the major one's are politely refused, but that does not solve the issue for the member. To cater to such demands of our members we decided to give it a try and offer custom services at additional cost.

Get Migrated / upgraded to Joomla 3

Joomla! 2.5 has reached End of Life in December 2014 and will soon be phased out and we do intend to eventually stop supporting Joomla 2.5 products but we can not do it abruptly as members need time to plan their upgrade / migration and we totally understand the same. For those who need professional help to migrate or upgrade their Joomla! sites to latest Joomla! version, we can help. The more members move to Joomla 3, the easier it is for us to maintain our products.
