A Joomla Demo Experience
I started out
by listening to the Joomla 3 Webinar on my laptop, but then half way through the
webinar, I decided to listen to the webinar on my Android and to work on the
site on my laptop, simultaneously. This worked out very well for me. Secondly, I signed up for the Demo Joomla 3. Afterward, I open my confirmation email from
Joomla. Then I applied the information
to the site according to Joomla. After logging in to Joomla, I follow the
directions of the presenter on the Webinar and click on my site name link,
which carry me to the front-end of Joomla.
Then, I typed (administer) in the location bar to enter the back-end of
Joomla. At the beginning I was having
challenges because I did not think to refresh the pages. On May the 23rd the challenges
with Joomla was my tweets for that day.
Another thing to remember is to check Joomla’s Protostar Module Map for
the layout of the site. This is opened
in a separate window.
More From Cloud Access
On Youtube
there were more webinars and step by step tutorials by Cloud Access to follow
by. I recovered my pages when I refreshed
the “Ouch” page. Next, I uploaded a logo
(cell phone), changed background color and changed template color. With Cloud Access Joomla 3 Tutorial, I created
categories from the Category Manager, articles (pages) the Article Manager. These actions were accomplished by clicking
on the New Button and clicking the Save & Close Button. Two
articles were added to my site from online with hyperlinks of their websites. Next, I created a menu tab from the Menus Manager
Module by selecting main menus. I click
again on the main menus which opened my Homepage. I clicked on the Homepage button to see my
menus type. On the Menus Manager: By
this time, I started working in Joomla 3, comfortably. Finally, I browsed and experimented with most
of the difference labels at the top of the site. I ended up liking Joomla and I plan to visit
this site again and share with my co-workers.
Totally a good point about listening one place while being able to work/edit at the same time. I had to pull out my two screens at work to avoid a lot of pausing and flipping back and forth. I still have some work to do with the layout.
ReplyDeleteI use to wonder why some librarians have two or more computer monitors on their desk. They could be working in CMS.
DeleteYou're some smart ladies! I only had my laptop, so I had to toggle between two windows. However, it was necessary to have the demonstration on while working on the site. I think that with time, it would get easier, but for the assignment, I definitely needed the help.
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely easier to operate in CMS if we are working with two wndows.
