Hi,
At JoomlArt, we've always been committed to delivering high-quality Joomla products that empower your websites. We understand the importance of staying up-to-date with the latest technology to ensure optimal performance, security, and accessibility. That's why we're thrilled to share our plan to update all our active products to Joomla 5, the latest long-term support version that promises to be faster, more accessible, more secure, and highly extendable.
In this blog post, we'll take you through our journey of preparing our products for Joomla 5 and give you insights into the exciting features and roadmap of Joomla 5.
Joomla 5 is the latest evolution of the beloved content management system, and it comes with a host of exciting improvements and enhancements. The primary goal with the new version is to build upon the strengths of Joomla 4.x and elevate your web experience to new heights. In a nutshell, Joomla 5 is all about making Joomla Fast, Accessible, Secure, Extendable, and Yours.
In this blog post, we'll dive into the key features of Joomla 5, grouped into categories for easy understanding.
Joomla 5 embraces the latest technologies by adding support for PHP 8.2 and ensuring compatibility with MySQL 8.0.11+. These updates not only enhance performance but also make your Joomla 5 website more secure and future-proof.
As part of our commitment to delivering high-quality products and ensuring a smooth transition to Joomla 5, we are dedicating efforts to codebase cleanup and optimization. This process aims to enhance the performance, security, and maintainability of our products while ensuring compatibility with the latest Joomla version.
Here's what you can expect from our codebase cleanup and optimization initiative:
We understand that transitioning to the latest Joomla version, Joomla 5, can sometimes pose challenges due to changes in the platform. To make this transition smoother for you, we have introduced a Behavioral Plugin.
What does this mean for you?
This feature is designed to make your Joomla 5 experience as smooth as possible, ensuring that your extensions and configurations remain functional during the upgrade process.
In Joomla 5, we've introduced an advanced method of authentication known as "Passkey." This feature enables passwordless authentication for your Joomla website, enhancing security and convenience.
Here's what you need to know:
With Passkey, you can enjoy a passwordless and secure authentication experience on your Joomla website, offering a more convenient and reliable way to access your site.
In Joomla 5, your Joomla administration experience is even more versatile. Now, if you're using dark mode on your device, the administrator template will automatically adapt to match your preference.
With this feature, the Joomla 5 administrator template will seamlessly switch to a dark mode appearance when it detects your device is in dark mode. This provides a more comfortable and visually pleasing experience for users who prefer darker interfaces.
Joomla 5 has expanded your font choices when using the default Joomla template, Cassiopeia. Now, you can select from a variety of system fonts directly within the template.
These fonts are built into the system, so there's no reliance on external services like Google Fonts. You have the flexibility to
Stay up-to-date with the latest icons and symbols. Joomla 5 integrates Fontawesome 6, giving you access to a fresh set of icons to enhance your website's visual appeal.
Installing Joomla should be a transparent and straightforward process. In Joomla 5, the installation experience has been enhanced by introducing an installation progress bar. No more wondering what's happening behind the scenes!
The installation progress bar replaces the traditional spinning Joomla logo during installation. Now, users will see a clear visual indicator of the installation progress, providing greater clarity and assurance during the setup process.
Joomla 5 has taken a significant step in optimizing your website's visibility in search engine results. Search engines like Google utilize structured data to generate rich snippets that enhance the display of your content in search results.
Previously, Joomla had a rich snippet generation feature, but it relied on hard-coded inline microdata, making it challenging to customize from the backend. Now, with Joomla 5, this process has been simplified.
You can add and configure structured data directly from the Joomla backend using the new System plugin - Schema.org. Begin by entering your company's general details. Then, in the Schema tab for articles, choose from a variety of types such as BlogPosting, Book, Event, Vacancy, Organization, Person, or Recipe.
Depending on your selection, specific schema.org fields will be available, allowing you to provide additional information like preparation time, ingredients, and more. This structured data is intended for search engines and helps improve the visibility of your content in search results, making it more informative and engaging for users.
Improve your website's SEO with longer meta descriptions of up to 300 characters. This allows you to provide more detailed and engaging information to potential visitors.
Joomla 5 allows you to take advantage of the AVIF image format in the media manager. This modern image format provides better compression and image quality, improving your website's loading speed and user experience.
Joomla 5 upgrades its code and text editors to Code Mirror 6 and TinyMCE Editor 6.7, enhancing the editing experience and providing more features for content creators.
Editing content becomes more seamless with the ability to align images directly in the TinyMCE editor. No more manual adjustments required, saving you time and effort.
In Joomla 5, it is made to be easier than ever for users to change their passwords through the profile page on your website. Now, when you update your password, you'll see clear information about the minimum password requirements and whether your chosen password meets these criteria.
This feature ensures that your password is both secure and compliant with the necessary standards, providing you with confidence in the safety of your account while maintaining user-friendliness.
In Joomla 5, we've enhanced the Action Logs feature to provide more detailed insights into user activities on your website. Now, you'll find additional functions added to the action logs, including:
Easily search and filter content by custom fields, making it simpler to find specific information within your website.
Enhance the user experience by displaying contact photos in search results, adding a personal touch to your website.
Tailor search results by deciding whether archived articles should be displayed or hidden, offering more control over your website's content.
With Joomla 5, you have a powerful CMS at your disposal, enriched with these exciting new features and enhancements. Whether you're a content creator, developer, or administrator, Joomla 5 offers something to make your website management experience smoother and more enjoyable. Upgrade to Joomla 5 today and explore these fantastic features for yourself!
