Hi Gang, Joomla1 2.5 has been released. Joomla 1.7 is no more.
Tons of new features. Andy Tarr wrote up a great list in December. http://community.joomla.org/blogs/community/1533-new-features-in-joomla-25.html Updating from 1.7 to 2.5 is one-click through the Extension Manager panel. (NOTE: I just tried to update to Joomla 2.5 from 1.7 on a local site running on my desktop and it made the icons in the admin panel run vertical. I was also not able to uninstall any plug-ins, templates and modules through Extension Manager. Not sure if this was caused by my local environment, but use care if you update and remember to BACK-UP YOUR SITE before you click the update button.) And I did not see any instructions on how to upgrade to Joomla 2.5 from 1.5, but I understand that a script is in the works. Besides, Joomla 1.5 will be supported until the end of April. So you have plenty of time to wait. All best, Steve -- Stephen Britton Technology Consultant sbrit...@gmail.com Twitter: @StephenBritton ph: 914-661-0040 "Life isn't about finding yourself.
