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.

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.

Details

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.

Have you ever been on a website and just can’t figure out how to navigate to a certain page? Or perhaps suddenly been frustrated by trying to find the navigation bar after reading through countless comments or posts down the page. Not only is this annoying but often happens even more when using a mobile device or tablet, and is more complicated to remedy.

I have, and these problems while small, really bother me and countless other users too. Navigation is among the most important features in web design and focusing on it’s development will be a huge trend in 2013. To help improve the users experience and improve customer satisfaction we have recently incorporated Sticky Navigation for Desktop and Off Canvas Navigation for Mobile in JA Argo - responsive Joomla 2.5 / 3.0 template based on our all new T3 Framework , as well as in T3 Framework.

Overview of web navigation

A. Traditional navigation

In the past we would see all kinds of links listed on the top navigation bar. First we would scroll down to read the article, information, or blog post then have to scroll up to find the navigation bar located at the top of the page. Let’s be honest, that is one annoying and inconvenient thing to have to do everyday of your life.

Gangnam, Obama, Syria, Greece, Israel, London, Hurricane, NASA, Whitney Houston, Gunmen, space jump, God particle and a lot more keywords to summarize 2012. For us in 2012 the keyword was responsive design as most of our work has been impacted by RWD. Besides, keywords like JA Elastica, JA Wall, T3v3, J! 3.0 are also popular keywords popping across our social channels.

Details

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 :
