Hi guys,

We're pleased to announce the release of T4 Page Builder 2.3.0 — a security-focused update that strengthens the protection of contact and subscription forms while improving administrator notification emails.

If you use T4 Page Builder on a public Joomla website, especially one with contact or subscription forms enabled, we strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version.

Details

July kept the momentum going. We launched three brand-new templates, brought built-in Dark Mode to 10 more, and shipped something genuinely new: Joomla MCP - a way to run your Joomla site by simply talking to an AI assistant. Here's the full recap.

Three new templates launched

Three releases in a single month - two for software and technology brands, one for travel. All three are built on the T4 Framework, ready for Joomla 6, and ship with dark and light styles from day one.

JoomlArt July 2026 recap - 3 new templates, Dark Mode for 10 more and Joomla MCP

JA Stratum - SaaS & startups

A clean, product-focused template for SaaS, startups, cloud platforms and technology products. The homepage is built the way software landing pages actually work: hero, dashboard preview, platform features, statistics, pricing, testimonials, FAQ and conversion-focused calls to action.

  • Integrations - present your product ecosystem and connected tools
  • Pricing - clear, structured plan comparison
  • Changelog - keep users up to date with product releases
  • Solutions - map your product to different use cases

JA Nexora - AI & developer platforms

Purpose-built for AI platforms, developer tools, cloud infrastructure and technology startups. Where Stratum speaks to software businesses broadly, Nexora is tuned for technical audiences - with app dashboard previews, platform capabilities, performance metrics, and dedicated Solutions layouts for developers, engineering teams and platform teams.

  • Technical blog layouts for engineering posts, product news and tutorials
  • Pricing, Integrations and Changelog pages included
  • Consistent dark and light styles across cards, dashboards and CTA blocks

JA Voyara - travel agencies & tour operators

The journeys you plan are unforgettable - your website should be too. JA Voyara brings a warm, editorial, magazine-style design to travel agencies, tour operators and independent travel planners.

  • Destination & journey listings - card layouts with location, duration, travel style, ratings and pricing
  • Travel stories - full-width photography, author info, tags and related articles
  • A flexible pricing page - package cards, feature comparison, FAQs and testimonials

Dark Mode reached 10 more templates

The roll-out that started in June carried straight through July, across two waves. Each of these templates now includes a one-click sun / moon toggle, automatic detection of the visitor's system preference, and a remembered choice for returning visitors - while your existing light design stays exactly the same.

Templates updated with Dark Mode in July

That takes the running total to 23 templates with built-in Dark Mode since the roll-out began. Switching it on is a single template update - your content and settings stay exactly where they are. Prefer light only? Leave it: light mode remains the default and untouched.

Joomla MCP: manage your site by talking to an AI

The biggest new thing in July wasn't a template. Joomla MCP connects your Joomla site to an AI assistant - Claude, ChatGPT or Gemini - so you can handle everyday website work in plain language instead of clicking through administrator screens.

Ask it to publish an article, tidy up categories, find a piece of content or check what changed, and it does the work against your real site.

How it works

  • Nothing is installed on your website - it uses Joomla's own built-in web services
  • You stay in control - permissions follow your existing Joomla user, and you can revoke access at any time
  • Set-up takes about five minutes - enable the built-in features, create a personal access key, connect your assistant
  • Works with Joomla 4, 5 and 6

In case you missed it: GeoReport

It landed just days before our June recap went out, so it deserves a second mention. GeoReport measures your website's AI visibility - whether ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity can find, trust and cite your site - and gives you the exact fixes.

It crawls your site and rolls everything into a single GEO Health Score built from four benchmarks: Search Alignment, Layout, Readability and Credibility. You get severity-ranked issues with step-by-step fixes, a side-by-side comparison across the four AI models, and a Chrome extension to audit any page - even a competitor's.

Your active JoomlArt subscription is already active on GeoReport - just sign in with your JoomlArt account, there's no separate account to create. Run a free GEO audit →

Why this matters

June was about catching up with where the platform is going - Dark Mode and Joomla 6. July was about what you build on top of it: three new templates for the industries asking for them, a Dark Mode library that now covers 23 designs, and two products that change how you work on your site rather than how it looks.

The simplest way to get all of it? A JoomlArt membership. One plan unlocks every template above, the full T4 toolkit, and everything we ship next.

The Dark Mode roll-out isn't slowing down. Four more templates - across four very different industries - now ship with a built-in light / dark toggle.

Newly updated with Dark Mode

Each of these templates now includes a one-click sun / moon toggle, automatic detection of the visitor's system preference, and a remembered choice for returning visitors - while your existing light design stays exactly the same.

4 more Joomla templates get Dark Mode

  • JA Vital - medical, hospital & healthcare
  • JA Sport - sports teams & football / soccer clubs
  • JA Coach - coaching, online courses & LMS
  • JA Resort - hotel & resort booking (Solidres)

All four are built on the T4 Framework and are Joomla 6 ready. Turning on Dark Mode is a simple template update - your content and settings stay in place.

Why Dark Mode?

A dark option is now something visitors expect. It's easier on the eyes in low light, gives your site a more modern, premium feel, and lets each visitor choose the experience they prefer - all without changing your site's structure.

How to update

  1. Download the latest package for your template from your JoomlArt account.
  2. Install the update over your current template.
  3. Open your site and click the sun / moon toggle in the header to preview Dark Mode.

Prefer light only? Leave it - light mode remains the default and untouched. Every one of these updates is included with a JoomlArt membership, along with all 200+ templates and everything we ship next.

More Dark Mode templates are on the way - stay tuned.

Customers are crucial to any business model, and we understand that customer support plays an extremely important role here. It is difficult to make every individual customer happy. Hence I decided to take this opportunity to give you a tour around the workings of the customer support system today, with a few infographics down below (We know how wording can be puzzling and confusing, visualization is a much better option to stick with), and hopefully give you guys a chance to be in our shoes, even for a few minutes.

I have been considering making a BIG change on how our customer support works. The idea came to me during my last visit to Stackideas.com - the best Joomla extension provider in the community (at least it is in my book). The support forum just blew me away with the Flattr button located at the bottom of each answer. When I found the answer to my problem, I could “thank” the author with Flattr. This allows them to later exchange this donation for real cash $$$. If you do not how Flattr works, jump over to the Flattr page website to get an insight.

Over the last few weeks, I have spent a lot of my time digging deeper into Flattr. I strongly believe it is the perfect system for our JoomlArt community along with our current private ticket system (using Kayako) and open support system on our forum (running Vbulletin)

Hello folks,

IE7 has been around since 2006. Up to now, roughly 4% market share for IE7 in the browser market worldwide. Most of the giants had dropped support for IE7 like Google, Facebook, Drupal, and Microsoft- its creator encouraged users to auto-update to the latest version of IE.

We have been debating on IE7 Support for a year now and finally decided to say Goodbye to this 6 years old browser due to the followings:
