From snewfeld at zebrasystems.com Wed Sep 4 18:47:58 2013 From: snewfeld at zebrasystems.com (Stewart Newfeld) Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2013 18:47:58 -0400 Subject: [joomla] Next Joomla Users Group Meeting is October Message-ID: <033301cea9c0$cd812150$688363f0$@com> Hi Everyone, We will not be having our regular monthly group meeting in September because the 3rd Wednesday falls on the Jewish Holiday of Sukkot observed by our hosts at Touro College Our next regular meeting will be Wednesday October 16, 2013 ( Our normal 3rd Wednesday of the month ) _____ CLASSROOM JOOMLA TRAINING OSTraining is offering a 25% discount on their upcoming Joomla Training in New York if you use the discount code "joomlanyc" when you register. * Day 1, Monday September 16, 2013 is for complete beginners. You'll learn all of the key concepts you need to understand, navigate and use a Joomla site. * Day 2, Tuesday September 16, 2013 is for people who have completed Day 1 or have some Joomla experience. You'll learn how to build and maintain Joomla sites. Registration and course details on the OSTraining website A note from me, Stewart Newfeld. These courses are taught by local Joomla Developer and excellent Joomla instructor Laura Gordon. If you want to get started with Joomla or are a beginning to intermediate Joomla user, these courses are a great way to learn. If you are a Joomla professional, do what I do - recommend these courses to your clients who want to add content to their websites themselves. Some will succeed in mastering the basics, and anyone who takes the course will more fully appreciate why it is they are paying you to maintain their website. Stewart Newfeld, President New York City Joomla Users Group (NYCJUG) Meetings 6-9PM every 3rd Wednesday of the Month ( but not September 2013) Check our website: www.joomlanyc.org NYCJUG_Logo_Signature -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

URL: From daveb at dslprime.com Sun Sep 15 10:37:31 2013 From: daveb at dslprime.com (Dave Burstein) Date: Sun, 15 Sep 2013 10:37:31 -0400 Subject: [joomla] Bootstrap Joostrap Message-ID: Folks I'm really enjoying what I can do with the Bootstrap framework, which has a really vibrant community constantly building it further. Great responsive features and what I really like is that the code is clean and works well. I use Philip Locke's Joostrap template, a nice adaptation which includes the isotope page layouts. I'm happy to do a demo for the group if people are interested. Meanwhile, here's a list of resources I put together at http://developinginpublic.com/index.php/bootstrap people may find helpful YABRL Yet Another Bootstrap Resource List My opinionated take on what helps build bootstrap websites. I've actually tried almost all of them and used several in production. A few favorites, not a huge list. GetBootstrap the Fountainhead Bootply Visual Editor Bootstrap Free Themes, Many Colors Free Themes, Many Layouts WrapBootstrap Themes A Lightbox Rich-Featured Gallery Cool Google Card template Bootstrap for Joomla Free CDN Speedup Photoshop Bootstrap samples Free CDN Speedup Short Tutorials If this isn't enough, see Far More Resources The Fountainhead: GetBootstrap Where creators Matt Otto and Jacob Thornton provide the code, show you what it can do, and offer some of the best concise documentation of any project. The only thing missing is a forum comparable to the one at Joomla.org. The "customize" feature saves petabytes across the web. Worth reading three or four times if you use Bootstrap. One tip: I couldn't find where to download the advanced templates. They are all in the single package in a subdirectory when you download the whole package. http://getbootstrap.com Visual Editor and Playground: Bootply Darn fast drag-n-drop editor and excellent resource files. A pleasure. http://bootply.com Free Themes for Bootstrap: Bootswatch More than a dozen free Bootstrap thems, all displayed on the home page. Strong on giving you different color choices. Jennie thought Flatly, Journal and perhaps Slate were the better ones. Cyborg is black and striking but perhaps a bit much. United uses very bright Ubuntu Orange. Host Thomas Park recommends a few paid templates as well, including Front Row at Wrapbootstrap. http://bootswatch.com/ More Free Themes: Start Bootstrap Loads of different layouts with sliders, half-sliders, multiple column layouts ... http://startbootstrap.com/ 300 Themes for $4 to $25: Wrap B ootstrap Nice one page themes for $4. Plenty of others for less than $25. Definitely worth a look. https://wrapbootstrap.com/ Bootstrap for Joomla: Joostrap Phil, a Joomla veteran, sells a fine version of Bootstrap for Joomla for ?16.99. He delivered Joostrap 3 within a week after Bootstrap 3 shipped. With ?34.99 or ?74.99 subscriptions, you get several full-featured templates and extensions. The support has been good and worth paying for. He helps out on issues that most template vendors would say "not my problem." http://www.joostrap.com Clean, Easy Lightbox: Bootstrap Lightbox Does just what it should http://jbutz.github.io/bootstrap-lightbox/ A Full-Featured Gallery for Pictures and Video: Blueimp Sebastian Tschan is recommending this, an updated version, rather than his earlier "Bootstrap Image Gallery." Looks good, but I haven't tested it yet. https://github.com/blueimp/Gallery/blob/master/README.md That Cool Google+ Card Interface: Bootplus Marcello Palmitessa has added classes to replicate the "cardstyle" layout made famous by Google+. I love it. http://aozora.github.io/bootplus Incredibly Easy, Free Way to Speed Your Site: Bootstrap CDN They cache the Bootstrap files and icons areound the globe. Your customer gets them in much less time. Provided free by MaxCDN to give you a taste of their service. The paid service looks interesting as well: $9/month will speed up 10,000+ visitors to most websites. Speed thrills. http://www.bootstrapcdn.com The Photoshop Templates: BentDesign & Designshock All the Bootstrap interface elements as Photoshop vectors. Ideal for mockups and comps http://www.bentdesignstudio.com/v2/2012/03/twitter-bootstrap-2-photoshop-template-psd/ Bootstrap 3 elements in a remarkable six foot poster. You must have enough memory to use this, but everything's there. Annoying signupat bottom of long page. http://www.designshock.com/bootstrap-3-psd/ Short Tutorials on Every Feature: W3Resource Neither deep nor eloquent but generally right to the point. Whether it's "pills & tabs" or "popovers," there's a page with the basics of what you need to know. So convenient I added it to my Bootstrap bookmarks. From Bengladesh http://www.w3resource.com/twitter-bootstrap/tutorial.php Far More Resources Many thanks to these much more comprehensive resource lists Big Badass List Just about everything. Well done, and check his OptimizationRobot while you're there. Slews of stuff for Wordpress, php, Ruby and others I'm not qualified to rate. Bootsnip Very well organized with clear descriptions. Speckyboy Good organization if you're looking for programmer tools. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

New Jersey Users Group Two former board members of the New York City Joomla Users Group, Laura Gordon and Marion Konop, have just started the New Jersey Joomla Users Group. You are invited to their first meeting on Tuesday October 29th at 7pm Union Township Chamber of Commerce 355 Chestnut Street, 2nd FloorUnion, NJ 07083 For more information: http://joomlausersnj.com/ and http://www.meetup.com/Joomla-Users-Group-of-New-Jersey/ And finally, we have switch from Wednesdays to Thursdays for our upcoming NYC User Group Meetings Upcoming NY Joomla User Group Meetings For the Fall Semester Touro College is once again kindly providing the NYC Joomla Users Group with facilities for our once-monthly meetings. But this semester we'll be meeting on Thursday nights and not Wednesdays as previously. Our next regular meeting will be Thursday October 17, 2013 The next two meetings after that will be: Thursday October 21, 2013 Thursday November 19, 2013 Location: Touro College ( ... more about Touro College ) Graduate School of Business 65 Broadway, Room 224 (map ) between Rector & Exchange Place New York, NY 10006 Chairperson: Stewart Newfeld 6:00 - 6:15 - Introductions and Miscellaneous Business 6:15 - 8:00 - PRESENTATION #1: Normally, only Superusers can login into a Joomla site that is taken offline. Stewart Newfeld will show how easy it is to assign "offline access permission" to selected non-superusers and customize the Site Offline Logo. This lets you stage a site and keep it away from the public until you are ready to launch it, or to create a site to function as an intranet site. In addition, Stewart will explain how to make different menu items available to different groups of users. An example would be to create items only accessible to an organization's Board Members, or to stage additions to a webiste that only a few people can see while it is undergoing development and before the material is approved to go public. The techniques demonstrate apply equally to Joomla 2.5 and 3.x PRESENTATION#2: Creating interactive forms fill-in forms like an IRS 1040 Tax Form, that can be downloaded from your website, is an often requested website feature. We'll have a quick demonstration of how suprisingly easy this is to accomplish with Microsoft Word and Adobe Acrobat. 8:00-8:30 Lightening Round Question and Answers, Networking.

Once that date has past, In the admin section the article has a red x and says "publishing expired". I'm doing some manual pulls from the sql db, with the conditional "state =1" to show all published articles and to Hide the expired articles. i thought the state=1 is published, state =0 is the unpublished, state = -2 is trashed. However when the article is expired (past the finished publishing date), the state still shows as 1 in the database, so my custom module is still showing the expired article, but the link to the actual article is not valid. Any ideas how I can identify from the database when an article is expired? I'm wondering why the state still shows as "1" for expired articles. thanks in advance.

It's likely your SQL pull should also filter on the date, so that results with a Finished Publishing Date in the past are filtered out. -Geoffrey On Thu, Sep 26, 2013 at 2:16 PM, Todd S wrote: > Hi, > > I'm creating articles in Joomla 2.5.4 and the setting the "Finished > Publishing" date.

I have removed/deleted the old menus and reprogrammed from scratch new ones I?m still getting these bogus SERP links from google. I deleted the sitemap and installed the latest in my root folder. I went to google webmaster tools and deleted the old sitemap and installed the new version. And still no change ? I have no idea where the below menu links are coming from. I enter unitel.biz in the google search bar and I get the following serp links; 1. www.unitel.biz/15-products <-- menu item ?/15-products does not exist. 2. http://www.unitel.biz/component/content/?view=featured < this page does not exist ? and it never did exist. 3. http://www.unitel.biz/25-products/telephone-systems/index.php?option=com_con tent&view=article&id=15:nec-sl1100&catid=25:nec-sl1100&Itemid=432 <-- does not exist. Any idea what?s happening? If I click on : unitel.biz - | Business Phone System - VoIP IP PBX - IP Phones - SIP ... www.unitel.biz/? The site opens and no problem. Every menu item is the way it should be ? works fine. :-( Best regards, Marcos Miranda --- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Have you moved domains? Sometimes if you have changed domains (for example from a localhost or test environment to the live domain) you will need to edit the value for the $live_site variable in the configuration.php file found in the root directory of your Joomla site files. The value of the variable must be manually edited; it cannot be accessed via the Global Configuration screens. Typically, it would look like: var $live_site = 'http://example.com'; Or, if you access your website in a sub-folder called joomla, it would be like this: var $live_site = 'http://example.com/joomla'; When you move domains, this value may need updating to reflect your new domain name: var $live_site = 'http://mynewdomain.com'; Is this something that has to be done?
