After three years in development, the open source Joomla 1.6 content management system (CMS) is now available for immediate download. This new version of Joomla includes more power, more control, and more options than ever before. The project has built new abstraction layers to further enable the CMS to run on different database backends as well as leaving the door open to future innovation.
Joomla 1.6 is designed to offer better site control and a more polished user experience. There are a variety of improvements to the software, enhancing website management and access, a more robust organizational structure for content control, and various other user-experience improvements throughout the software.
Joomla 1.5 was a step toward moving away from table based layouts, but we still had tables left in there by default. With Joomla 1.6 those have been removed, so the only things left to design your layouts are divs and CSS, and table layouts are only used where tables are necessary to display tabular content like numbers.
Joomla 1.6 offers a new access control system which allows site administrators control over who can view and manage content. It also brings unlimited depth organization models, which allows content creators to define categories and create a category tree with as many (or as few) levels for organizing articles as needed.
Additionally, this release unveils one-click extension updates which greatly simplifies the process of adding extensions. Sites can now be built in multiple languages with the new multi-language functionality.
In addition, developers and implementers will enjoy the new ability Joomla 1.6 provides in allowing extensions to be built with granular control and permissions. This makes it easier to create more advanced, enterprise-focused applications and extensions for Joomla.
Rebuilt from the ground up in much of the application, this latest Joomla release will delight the casual site builder while helping small, medium, and enterprise businesses succeed in delivering web sites, intranets and applications to their respective markets.
Delivering power through simplicity, Joomla 1.6 ensures its place as the popular CMS of its kind. Joomla 1.6 delivers new features to end-users and site administrators including:
- Finer access controls for viewing and editing content with configurable user groups and viewing levels
- A user-defined category structure, from simple one-level to complex multi-level categories
- Installation improvements allowing for multiple extension installations in one package, updatable with a single click
- Expanded language support for easy production of multi-lingual sites
- Start and end publishing times for modules with more control over where they display,
- Fresh new templates and semantic markup to please the eye as well as the search engines
- More creative control through template styles
- Hundreds of additional features, streamlining workflow and productivity
With Joomla 1.6 developers will build extensions faster through all phases of design, deployment and updates.
Advanced and rich API’s will provide new opportunities to integrate, compete and expand into existing and new markets.
Style improvements give graphic designers more control and more flexibility to create the perfect effect for any web site and audience. Designers can now override virtually all output from the Joomla Administrator giving rise to new opportunities for functional, accessible or even mobile-friendly Administrator areas. Individual Administrator templates can be assigned to individual users allowing web masters to address any special needs.
