Support

Support for the Joomla! CMS can be found on several places. The best place to start would be the official Help Site . On the Help Site you can find a lot of documentation such as an Administrator manual, Developer info, Frequently Asked Questions and so on.

Of course you should not forget the Help System of the CMS itself. On the topmenu in the Backend Administrator you find the Help button which will provide you with lots of explanation on features.

Another great place would of course be the Forum . On the Joomla! Forum you can find help and support from both Community members, but also from Joomla! Core members and Working Group members. The forum contains a lot of information, FAQ's, just about anything you are looking for in terms of support.

Two other resources for Support are the Developer Site and the Extensions Site . The Developer Site for example provides lots of technical info to developers. The Joomla! Core members are regularly posting their blog reports about several topics such as programming techniques used in Joomla!, Security, Events and more.

Documentation

Joomla! Documentation can of course be found on the Help Site . You can find information such as an Installation Guide, User and Administrator manuals, Frequently Asked Questions and a lot more.

Other than the documentation provided by the Joomla! Core team, there are also books written about Joomla! You can find a listing of these books in the Joomla! Bookshelf .

If you're new to web publishing systems, you'll find that Joomla! delivers sophisticated solutions to your online needs. It can deliver a robust enterprise-level website, empowered by endless extensibility for your bespoke publishing needs. Moreover, it is often the system of choice for small business or home users who want a professional looking site that's simple to deploy and use. We do content right.

So what's the catch? How much does this system cost? Well, there's good news ... and more good news! Joomla! 1.5 is free released under an Open Source license.

Had you invested in a commercial alternative, there'd be nothing but moths left in your wallet.

Joomla! is set to change all that ... Joomla! is different from the normal models for content management software. For a start, it's not complicated. Joomla! has been developed for everybody. It's licensed under the GNU/GPL license, easy to install and administer and reliable. Joomla! doesn't even require the user or administrator of the system to know HTML to operate it once it's up and running.
