Spice up Joomla! with productivity-enhancing extensions
Joomla!, a popular content management system (CMS) for Web portals, is easy to install and maintain, and has thousands of components, modules, and Mambots for almost every thinkable function a Web site could possibly need. All of the extensions are open source, as is the CMS itself. Here are a few extensions that I find indispensable.
Once your Joomla! setup finishes, one of the first things you should install is a component called JoomlaPack. This backup software doesn't have many configuration options, but it does the job it was intended for -- keeping your files and database safe from disaster. JoomlaPack can back up your database and site files either independently or all together. In the component's configuration panel you can define which directories should be excluded from archiving (/temp, for example). Once the backup completes, you can download the archive files it creates from the JoomlaPack configuration screen. The only downside of JoomlaPack is that, unlike JoomlaCloner, another backup application, you can't set it to schedule automatic backups.
