User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. Joomla Templates are for Joomla only. However, you can mimic the design for your static page. Some server side scripting are embedded or added on the Joomla's source. If you want to use it for your static page, you have to remove these scripts and save the source as html. But if your template is in html, then you won't be having any problems.

How do you upgrade old modules of joomla?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The best way is to download the updated code and check the README file for any special upgrade instructions.

In general, most modules can be upgraded by uninstalling the old version of the module using the Joomla Installer. Then, install the updated version of the code.

Other modules are very simple and can be updated by unzipping the new code and uploading it on top of the old module in the JOOMLA-ROOT/modules folder.

Check with each individual module to see which method is the safer and/or recommended path for upgrade.

What is the difference between aspnet and joomla?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Well "asp.net" and "joomla" are very similar in that they are both web applications designed to easily deliver dynamic web content and applications. === === ".net" (dot-net) is the framework that delivers web content for web pages with .asp or .aspx extensions. This free technology provided by the Microsoft Corporation. Asp.net also comes with the free Visual Web Developer. Joomla is an open-source content management system (CMS) with several of extensions and web templates available for download, most often free of charge. Joomla is also generated dynamically, however, "php" framework is utilized. Joomla is easiest (in my opinion) for beginners. Simple templates are preloaded and many times there are available extensions (code already written) for purchase or sometimes free. There are forums available for both content types for support. MOST of the time, if you need help, you should browse the "Knowlege Base (KB)" sections of the corresponding websites before posting a question on the forum- your question may be ignored. One reason that I recommend Joomla to beginners is the ease of access and relatively low amount of programming knowledge is needed. It is a good idea to understand basic HTML scripts and tags (h1, h2, p, em, cite, div, span, ol, ul, etc.), in most cases. Try drupal, they have been growing strong over the years. Any CMS technology used can be customized (not very easily for beginners) using photoshop "psd" templates or fireworks "png" templates, along with custom Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) that structures your pages (Try the Visual Web Developer to design your CSS. This is a FREE W.hat Y.ou S.ee I.s W.hat Y.ou G.et [WYSIWYG] Editor similar to Adobe Dreamweaver). In most cases, Joomla and Drupal are considered "standard", as appose to ASP or ".net" which some claim is easier to customize and not have the "standard" template designs. (By standard I mean menu at the top bar, content in between with footer content at bottom). Joomla and Drupal Are Two CMS systems I highly Recommend For Beginners Or Small Businesses Who Have A Small Budget and Want To Have An Online Presence That Goes Beyond The Typical "5-pages" Websites. ---- To deliver content dynamically: Drupal and Joomla (CMS).
