Udjamaflip's Meta Title Controller for Joomla

Wednesday, 01 September 2010 00:00

For a long time it has been necessary to patch Joomla! in order to make it support amending meta titles on a per article basis without any useless "auto-titles" and default values cluttering your websites meta titles rendering them practically useless on a practical and accessible level. So I have created a package of 2 plugins and 1 module will now enables any Joomla 1.5 user to have full control over their meta titles.

Joomla custom fields (based on Wordpress custom fields) v0.2

Sunday, 22 August 2010 09:56

This custom fields Joomla extension package is based on the concept of the wordpress custom fields it has built into the core allowing any user to add additional bits of information or data and attach it to specific pieces of content. With this in mind I realised it would be a great item of functionality to add to Joomla!

Joomla Automated Tag Cloud 0.6 Beta

Saturday, 21 August 2010 21:14

It's been a while since I have done any proper work on the tag cloud as it has been quoted as working very well, however, I have had feedback with foreign characters such as German/Spanish specific categories. Apologies in advance for it taking me so long to get a fix out but it's been difficult to test as not all servers support the correct enctype. Before using this, ensure utf8 is being used.

Joomla admin panel simplifier

Monday, 26 July 2010 20:27

Whenever I introduce someone to Joomla the first reaction is oooh, that looks a bit complex and in all fairness to them it is. It is daunting and your average non-techie isn't going to pickup the basics easily. Now i'm sure other web developers have heard the phrase "Can't you just turn it off" from project managers without any real knowledge of what is involved or the implications of doing such a thing. So I have created a customisable module which lets you hide non-essential parts of the Joomla backend.

Google maps api module

Monday, 21 June 2010 14:39

Just a quick post as it's been a while due to being on holiday in Spain, this is a quick module I've put together over the past year or so and use quite often, it's easy to customisae though I haven't quite got it to work with multiple instances of the module on the same page (sorry!). Anyway it's FREE as always, my google map module.

Joomla admin template with Google Analytics module

Monday, 17 May 2010 17:34

Over the past months I have been actively developing various succesful extensions for Joomla, however, I have failed to extend my Joomla admin template enough to gain it entrance to the extensions.joomla.org area which would gain it the most publicity, I didn't want to "re-invent the wheel" like some other admin templates by creating my own set of icons that do the same job, or creating a session reminder for logout.

Joomla SEO and Accessibility Patch

Wednesday, 28 April 2010 21:10

It's been a while since I last posted, and it's going to be a while till my next post because I'm moving apartment and according to Sky I could be without Internet for upto 4 weeks! Anyway there will be a new release of the Joomla! admin template and Joomla! tag cloud when I return. In the mean time I thought I would keep the visitors keen by handing out a patch I regularly use to give Joomla! a bit of a boost in Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and Accessibility to help our less able friends navigate our websites

Joomla! custom fields (based on Wordpress custom fields)

Friday, 09 April 2010 19:20

This rite here, it's a custom field!

Over the past year of development in Joomla! i have come across a few shortcomings and a few features in alternative CMS such as Wordpress which I think would be great added functionality in Joomla! such as custom fields. So I have created a nice combination of plugins, modules and components for Joomla to have a similiar way of controlling content through custom fields in the way Wordpress does.

Joomla! tag cloud module v0.5 beta

Saturday, 06 March 2010 20:18

I've had a lot of good feedback on this module so didn't want to dissapoint and let it float off into that pile of projects which doesn't get touched. Based on feedback through the comments on v0.4 beta tag cloud I have rectified the following issues, and hopefully we should be close to exiting beta!

Free Joomla Admin Template (jQuery Desktop)

Sunday, 21 February 2010 04:31

I mentioned a while back I was working on a desktop template and I decided instead of just releasing the template as a .html file for all to use how they wanted (which you still can simply by downloading the files from the desktop demo), I have made it into a joomla administrator template which is free for anyone to use and released under GNU/GPL 2 licence.

The joomla admin template is using jquery and gives a nice desktop feel similiar to that of a mac. I am running beta on this template so please be patient during updates. I have found it to be stable and running well in Safari 4.x and Firefox 3.x and it 'works' in IE8, do not ask me to make the template run in IE7 or IE6 I won't be supporting legacy browsers on this project.
