Description

Joomla has been the second-most used open-source content management system for years. It has always had many built-in features, but several of them are not very well-known in the market. This book brings to you all the major features of the Joomla 4.x series that’ll enable you to build your own website and CMS on Joomla. The book begins by introducing you to the content management features that represent the hearth of the software and show you how to structure your website content to get the most out of it. You’ll also find out how to extend your content with custom fields, go multilingual, and set up your custom workflow. As you advance, you’ll learn all about the customization of the website, introducing templates, and child templates and overrides that’ll allow you to make your site unique. The concluding chapters will take you through four different case studies, including an online learning system, a B&B booking system, and corporate and editorial websites to see how Joomla has been used in real life to achieve a specific goal for your clients. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to confidently build modern websites on Joomla to deliver tailor-made solutions to your clients.

The book proves to be an elaborate and essential resource on the updated version of Joomla 4. I’ve gone through the first two parts of the book, and I must mention that it’s an excellent writeup by Luca Marzo. Very helpful guide to building websites with Joomla.

This book is an excellent step-by-step book to take you through the features and enhancements for Joomla4. If you already know Joomla3, this book can be helpful because Luca takes you through each element of the system in an easy-to-explain manner.He also provides examples and 'workshops' at the end of each chapter which is helpful for you to understand what you are doing. He includes detailed screenshots and each element is described completely.This is a great book to add to your Joomla! library!

I had very high expectations when I was offered a chance to read this Joomla book by Luca Marzo. It’s a riveting read for anyone closely related to website development and CMS. The book covers all aspects that you should know to create one's own website in Joomla. I would strongly recommend this book as an essential resource for the Joomla community as well as all website developers.

Mahendra Lokhande Jan 27, 2023

Joomla has been a really productive CMS and this book manages to carry the essence of Joomla by explaining all elements with utmost detail and technicality. The book covers styling and website management where the author goes out of the way to share a lot of ideas along with the technical elements in Joomla. I loved that there are exercises to practice all what you read before applying it to a real-life scenario. There’s focus on SEO, which is mandatory for websites in the digital age while it also focuses on security for websites. The case study part of the book gives you more insights into the powerful setup within Joomla and you know more about all what you can do effectively.If you’re a website designer or you want to learn about open-source content management in general, this book is definitely worth the read.
