As you may also have observed, both the sites JA Voice and JA Job Board, have been defaced 3 times in the last 2 weeks. The reason? The Demo sites running on the same server allows superadmin login access to back-end, which allows to edit layout files (CSS & Templates) in back-end. Therefore, hacker can edit those php files and insert injection code. This made both the sites quite prone to hacking attempts. That's what has been happening for the past 2 weeks.

Avail $ 20 off (limited offer) of JA Extension Club annual subscription. New extensions are being released this week. This includes JA Google Map Plugin and JA Google Ajax Translate. JA Compress (CSS and JS compressor), will be released next into it, followed by many more extensions.... Not to mention the JA Pop up, JA BookMark and JA Comment plugins, which were released for free to JA Joomla Template Club members.
