Wat is joomla.com?
joomla.com is de nieuwste Joomla service waarmee een compleet gratis website gebouwd en onderhouden kan worden op een joomla.com subdomein (example.joomla.com) voor een onbeperkte periode. De website software bevat alle core functionaliteiten van het Joomla CMS die het bouwen van websites eenvoudig en flexibel maken.
Wat voor soort templates kunnen gebruikt worden voor joomla.com websites?
Only templates from the official Joomla.com Gallery can be used with sites hosted on the platform. Currently, 15 different templates are proposed. Templates in the gallery can be installed either as blank templates or with sample data that demonstrates the different content elements. The sample data option is especially appropriate for beginners, who usually find it easier to edit existing content rather than to start from scratch.
What kind of Extensions can be used with joomla.com sites?
joomla.com sites come with many pre-installed extensions so that users can experience the extendibility of the Joomla CMS. In addition to the core functionality inbuilt in the default Joomla, users can add the following:
- Google Maps
- Google Analytics tracking
- Disqus comments
- Social media links
- Social sharing buttons
Detailed tutorials on how to set up and use these extensions are available.
Difference from a self-hosted Joomla!
The limit on the installation of 3rd party extensions and templates is the main difference between a joomla.com free website and a self-hosted Joomla! website. Also, only a subdomain of joomla.com is allowed as the primary address of your free website.
Difference from the Joomla! Demo
Unlike the free Joomla.com website, the Joomla! Demo has no limitations on templates and extensions, but it can be used freely for a limited time (you will have 90 days to explore Joomla!, test extensions and build a complete website, absolutely free of charge).
How to get help when using joomla.com?
As a free service, Joomla.com does not guarantee any level of personalized support. The Joomla.com support tutorials document most of the platform’s specific functionalities. Comments under the different topics are enabled, so that users may ask questions and get answers from other users.
Since most of the platform’s functionality overlaps with that of the Joomla! CMS, users are also encouraged to seek help in the Joomla! Forum and in this Wiki Documentation.
