Extensions improve Joomla’s interface

Picture
The creation of a website is not exactly easy if one does not utilize the right tools. People using static web pages will encounter quite a bit of problems when the content increases as it is not so easy to update nor are there any search functionalities in place. Maneuvering around static websites is cumbersome and often the user has to manually create buttons for this purpose. For this very reason Joomla’s Content Management System (CMS) is a hit as it allows one to successfully overcome such problems.


Other CMS system competitors include Wordpress and Drupal but Joomla outshines them because it serves all types of users which consist of designers, developers and end users. Joomla’s CMS is an operating powerhouse and many people love the fact that it comes with no costs. All software has it flaws and Joomla is no different but it’s nice to know that they are aware of this. They are always striving to better their product with new releases and it shows. They have quite a number of followers together with a superb support that enables one to get over the problematic issues.


Users within the Joomla world are always on the lookout for a community builder extension that will make their working environment more efficient. Community builder plugins ensure more features are added and are created by the Community Builder and other institution. For instance the Community Builder (CB) suite has added a host of features that include more fields, improved workflows and image uploads, profiled galleries, blogs, guestbooks and walls to name but a few. For a more comprehensive list you can always visit Joomla’s website.





Unfortunately if people look at the discussion boards they will see that a lot of Joomla users are battling to get the extensions running and adjustments have to be done. In some instances it all efforts are not successful. Irritations result from many problems that consist of users being thrown out of editing, titles not being reflected in fields, concealment of characters and issues regarding code changes are just a few taken from the long problem list.


Joomla supporters will be pleased to hear about the Community Builder Advanced Search that extends the CMS system by enhancing it with a much needed function.
