Joomla.org - 1 hour 1 min ago
This event has been postponed until June 20-21, 2008. The South African Joomla! community (http://www.joomla.org.za/) is pleased to invite you to the first Joomla! Day South Africa - Durban (http://www.joomladay.co.za/), an event to be held May 9 and 10, 2008, at the Varsity College, Durban North (http://www.varsitycollege.co.za/slideshow.aspx?Campus=durbannorth). Durban (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durban) is the third largest city in South Africa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa), a popular destination for tourists, and considered to be the busiest port in the African continent (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Africa). It is an ideal location for those interested in Joomla! to gather. Joomla! Days offer an excellent opportunity to learn, network with other Joomla! users and developers, and discover ways to contribute to the Joomla! project. The South African Joomla! community (http://www.joomla.org.za/) has been hard at work to ensure that this year's Joomla! Day events are at least as informative and fun as the three successful South African events held during 2007. The Joomla! Day South Africa - Durban Agenda (http://www.joomladay.co.za/component/option,com_attend_events/Itemid,/task,view/id,5/) calls for two complete days of activities: Day 1: Business Community Friday, May 9, is designed around the needs of the business community. Those who have roles like Web master, business decision maker, and marketing manager, will find helpful, relevant topics. The Business Community Day is a non-technical event focused on helping make the business case for using Joomla. If you want to determine whether or not Joomla is suitable for your business site, this is the session for you. Day 2: User Community The agenda for Saturday, May 10, focuses on the Joomla! user community. This is a technical and business session, covering topics of interest for those who install and manage Web sites for themselves or for clients. Topics on this day will cover Web site security, migration, templating, extensions, hosting, and business strategies for Web site developers. Joomla! Day South Africa events are run by the Joomla! Southern African Portal (http://www.joomla.org.za/) , a non-profit organisation. If you are interested and able to attend, register online. (http://www.joomladay.co.za/component/option,com_attend_events/Itemid,/task,view/id,5/) Your registration includes refreshments, a Joomla! T-shirt and an information packet. Joomla! Days are well attended worldwide. A key benefit of attendance is the opportunity to connect with hundreds of members of the Joomla! community, including speakers, designers, site builders, and developers. We wish the very best to our South African community members and hope all who attend enjoy Joomla! Day South Africa - Durban (http://www.joomladay.co.za/).

QTube

extensions.joomla.org - Wed, 2008-05-07 19:11
QTube is a simple plugin designed to perform a very simple task: embedding YouTube hosted videos in a Joomla! content item. I'm aware that there are plugins that allow you to include videos from many other sources, but when all the videos you need are hosted at YouTube you can take advantage of QTube's small footprint. The plugin supports some parameters to allow you to configure the look and feel of the video container object. Default values for all these parameters can be set from plugin administration area. Let's say you want the same width and height for all the videos on your site; specify these parameters once and for all in the plugin backend and you won't need to include them in any plugin command string. Finally the pages containing your videos can be valid XHTML Transitional because the HTML code generated by QTube doesn't contain the tag unlike the code provided at YouTube site (at least the last time I checked).
