JoomlArt's Blog

Hi guys,

After the Developer Preview version of Purity III released 2 weeks ago, we are still amazed on how much feedback, support and love we are receiving on a daily basis toward Purity III. For these, we THANK YOU.

And today, the long-wait is now over. We're glad to announce that Purity III stable version is OUT.

Time flies and I can't imagine that it is already 7 years since our Purity template was chosen to be the winner of Joomla 1.5 template contest. The template was later selected to be included into the core of Joomla 1.5. Purity has been the most successful template so far because of its simplicity yet flexibility. It does not look fancy, but it works seamlessly with any type of content you come up with.

First month of the new year deserve much more than regular monthly releases, for starters we are releasing 3 cool FREE Joomla extensions which we are sure would be very useful for your websites. Yes, they are responsive too and works great with both Joomla 2.5 & Joomla 3.

These freebies are JA Image Hotspot module - Joomla extension for Image markup, JA Promo Bar module - cool flexible promotion bar for your site, and JA Google Charts module - Joomla extension for better visualization of your data using Google visualization API. Check out details below :

We got exciting news for everyone, our free Joomla translation component - JA Multilingual now also supports Google translate apart from Bing Translator. While both the services are great, Bing allows 2 million characters translations a month for free whereas Google translate is fully commercial. We have a little comparison chart down below highlighting the features of Bing translator and Google translate.

We have also updated JA Multilingual component to support auto translation of metatags and meta description, which should be helpful from the SEO point of view. The new version also fixes the bugs reported by users.

T3 Framework - a powerful Joomla template framework version 2.0.1 was shipped last week.

What can you expect in T3 Framework version 2.0.1?

• Up-to-date with Joomla & Bootstrap 3 framework
• Improved in UI for both front-end & back-end
• Even more flexible in term of navigation system

Apart from the new features, T3 Framework still embraces its core such as: Layout Configuration, ThemeMagic, Layout Customization, Megamenu Configuration, and more. If you are unfamiliar with T3 Framework, here are the shortcut to learn more about the Framework:

Building a Joomla 2.5 or Joomla 3 multilingual site can be tricky, we encountered difficulties while trying to setup multi-language demo site to demonstrate our RTL language layouts for our latest templates. We developed a internal tool to overcome the problems we faced and we thought why not add more options and release the extension as FREE for the benefit of the Joomla! community.

After 4 months of hard work, T3v3 has finally released the stable version for Joomla 2.5 and Joomla 3.0 a few days back accompanied with JAEM (JA Extensions Manager) urgent bug fix in upgrading T3 plugin.

1. T3v3 Stable Version 1.1.0

During the last couple of months, we have released a few beta and RC versions of T3 Framework and received numerous feedback from the Joomla community to improve the current Framework to the current level.

We're here with another post on one of the greatest features in T3v3: ThemeMagic. If you guys have installed the latest T3v3 version, you probably already have had the chance to test it.

What is ThemeMagic?

In short, ThemeMagic lets you customize your JoomlArt T3v3 based Joomla! template without having to search for the right file or without diving into the code, one can manipulate most of the template's CSS properties right from the ThemeMagic backend. Video says it all :
