Extensions Directory hits 4000!

Written by Sam Moffatt

I'm probably stealing someones thunder here but I'd just like to announce that the Joomla! Extensions Directory, or JED, today has reached over 4000 Joomla! extensions. This is a testament not only to the developers of our community who continue to produce new extensions to help you customise your Joomla! site the way you want it but towards the great JED Editors team who work behind the scenes to maintain the system and keep it up and running for the community. So thanks to the JED team for all their hard work and thanks to the developers who help to make Joomla! the great system it is today!

    Thanks Sam for writing the blog. I second with you, that the 3rd party developers needs a raise for their hard work and their contributions. Without them, Joomla! wouldn't be what it is today.

    I also want to mention that we have had a remarkable development in JED. We started with 334 extension in March 2006. For one year ago we had reached 2299 extensions and yesterday we passed for the first time 4000 extensions.

    I, too, want to echo ssnobben and Lorenzo by thanking all of the third party developers for their terrific contributions and to all the JED editors who keep the JED so well organized.

    That sounds great. Which extension was the 4000th?

    Excellent work, however I wonder what the extra influx of extensions would be from duplicates where they have been updated from 1.0 series and released for 1.5?

    Take these away from the statistics and I would like to see the complete trend of genuinely new extensions to the directory. It would be more accurate.

    Regards,

    Joel

    That is very good, but I wonder how much of this extensions are really extensions, and how much are module, and how much are plugins :)

    That's a hell of a lot of extensions.

    THis is by far the best tutorial I have found after searching around and I'm a real beginner when it comes to using Joomla!

    My only reservation is that I have followed the Quick Start Guide to the word... and it told me not to install the Sample site. Now I'm stuck in gaining the best experience form this tutorial!

    Hi there,

    How do I add a new position in the middle center of the page just below My First Article? Currenlty, the only spot there is "banner" and whatever I put there shows on every single other page. I downloaded JoomGallery and would like the gallery thumbnails to appear below My First Article and only appear on the homepage and no other pages. Please help!

    Thanks,!

    Hi, thanks for this tut, it was just what I was looking for on the default data content management. I must say that Joomla is a bit overwhelming at first but it looks very powerful so I'm persevering because I think it will be a great tool to add the list - and the type of site requests I'm getting are leaning more to this type of application.

    Any recommendation on reading material for transferring data from Joomla 1.0 to Joomla 1.5 or one Joomla install to another.

    Thanks once again :-)
