Extensions Directory is the largest directory of Joomla! extensions.

Modules Beitragsanzahl: 0
Modules are small blocks of content that can be displayed in positions on a web page. The menus on this site are displayed in modules.

Navigation Modules Beitragsanzahl: 2
Navigation modules help your visitors move through your site and find what they need.
Menus provide your site with structure and help your visitors navigate your site. Although they are all based on the same menu module, the variety of ways menus are used in the sample data show how flexible this module is.
A menu can range from extremely simple (for example the top menu or the menu for the Australian Parks sample site) to extremely complex (for example the About Joomla! menu with its many levels). They can also be used for other types of presentation such as the site map linked from the "This Site" menu.
Breadcrumbs provide users with information about where they are in a site.

Atomic is a minimal template designed to be a skeleton for making your own template and to learn about Joomla! templating.
Languages Beitragsanzahl: 0
Joomla! installs in English, but translations of the interfaces, sample data and help screens are available in dozens of languages. Help
If there is no language pack available for your language, instructions are available for creating your own translation, which you can also contribute to the community by starting a translation team to create an accredited translation.
Translations of the interfaces are installed using the extensions manager in the site administrator and then managed using the language manager.
If you have two or more languages installed you may enable the language switcher plugin and module. They should always be used together. If you create multilingual content and mark your content, menu items or modules as in specific languages and follow the complete instructions your users will be able to select a specific content language using the module. By default both the plugin and module are disabled.
There are a number of extensions that can help you manage translations of content available in the Joomla! Extensions Directory.
Plugins Beitragsanzahl: 7
Plugins are small task oriented extensions that enhance the Joomla! framework. Some are associated with particular extensions and others, such as editors, are used across all of Joomla!. Most beginning users do not need to change any of the plugins that install with Joomla!. Help
Park Site Beitragsanzahl: 1
Park Blog Beitragsanzahl: 2
Here is where I will blog all about the parks of Australia.
You can make a blog on your website by creating a category to write you blog posts in (this one is called Park Blog). Each blog post will be an article in that category. If you make a category blog menu link with 1 column it will look like this page, if you display the category description (this part) displayed.
To enhance your blog you may want to add extensions forcomments, interacting with social network sites,tagging, andkeeping in contact with your readers.You will also enable the syndication that is included in Joomla! (in the Integration Options set Show Feed Link to Show an make sure to display the syndication module on the page).

Fruit Shop Site Beitragsanzahl: 2
Growers Beitragsanzahl: 2
We search the whole countryside for the best fruit growers.
You can let each supplier have a page that he or she can edit. To see this in action you will need to create a users who is in the suppliers group.
Create one page in the growers category for that user and make that supplier the author of the page. That user will be able to edit his or her page.
This illustrates the use of the Edit Own permission.
Recipes Beitragsanzahl: 0
Customers and suppliers can post their favorite recipes for fruit here.
A good idea is to promote the use of metadata keywords to make finding other recipes for the same fruit easier.
To see this in action, create a user assigned to the customer group and a user assigned to the suppliers group. These users will be able to create their own recipe pages and edit those pages. The will not be able to edit other users' pages.
