Package extensions for Joomla 1.7 and 1.5 together

06.07.2011

PackageTwo years ago I wrote about combining Joomla 1.0 and 1.5 extensions into a single installation package. This allowed developers to distribute only a single installation file of their extension which could be used on both Joomla versions. In the same time it was easier for users as well since they avoided dealing with different installation files for different Joomla versions.

Now we reveal how you can add a version for Joomla 1.6 or 1.7 to the same package and create a single installation file of your extension for all Joomla versions! (more…)

19.12.2010

Multiple RSSToday I received an interesting question: “Is there a way to add multiple RSS feeds to run simultaneously in AJAX Scroller?”.

So how do we add several different RSS feeds and combine them together in the output? Simple: we use an online feed aggregate tool!

Stock chart integration in Joomla

15.12.2010

WOW IndexRecently I developed a financial chart integration in Joomla for Algo Futures. The charts, called WOW Indices, represent a market’s Order Flow Momentum as determined by Algo Future’s proprietary set of algorithms.

Why am I encoding my scripts

16.09.2009

PHP encodingRecently it came to my attention that someone copied one of my free and GPL components for Joomla, made cosmetic changes and started selling it.

For this reason I am getting emails asking for relation with this site, even asking me for support.
