Joomla 3 Part D

This is the last installment in my blog post series on Joomla 3 based on what I learn on the Addison-Wesley video training course. Plug ins are found in extensions, plug in manager, type, select type of plug in select where it goes click one of the save options and refresh the site. Disabling a plug in can adversely affect how the site function and there is no new button when you activate a plug in. You can install various languages within joomla but they won't translate an article instead they will translate the standard text within the site like menus. You can change the look of your site with a template. They give you a variety of options that you can adapt which varies from template to template. The purpose of a template is to save you a load of work in constructing a site and also if inexperienced people are writing articles it prevents them changing certain things that you don't want changed. There is a site at http://joomlaskins.net where you can get templates. If you click users, user manager it displays the various users on your site and their roles. Super User is the owner normally of the site although Administrator is similar. Editors and authors can edit and publish articles. I have enjoyed doing these articles and hope you have enjoyed them too.
