Joomla! is one of the most popular Content Management Systems (CMS) in the world, and has grown to power millions of websites since 2005. The Joomla! Community has organized many JoomlaDays all over the globe, and last year we saw nearly 30 events with thousands of attendees on almost every continent.
In November (16th-18th) this year the first Joomla! World Conference will take place in San Jose, CA, USA. This conference is a community meeting, and a great starting point for getting involved in the Joomla! network. You will find information on almost every aspect of the Joomla! CMS, the Joomla! Web Application Platform, as well as the Joomla! Community. Come and find out more about this community-driven Open Source project.
Join us for three days of information, discussion and new ideas. You can attend presentations, participate in workshops and lots of fun is guaranteed. This is not a one-way presenter-to-attendee conference – you will be involved in sessions and discussions, and have the opportunity to give your own presentation if you wish.
Joomla!’s awesomeness lies in its great community, we are all working together to build a bright future for the CMS we all love.
Don’t wait! Buy your ticket for the Joomla! World Conference now!

WordPress 3.4 “Green”
WordPress 3.4 is here and out the door. We’ve dubbed this release “Green” in honor of guitarist Grant Green whose soulful simplicity has kept many of us company during this release. This release includes significant improvements to theme customization, custom headers, Twitter embeds, and image captions — here’s a short clip with the highlights: For […]
The following bug has been fixed:
[-]Changes from microupdate 10.4.4 MU#35 led to partially working GUI on Plesk 10.4.4 for Linux. It was caused by incorrect data type of field “data” of table “sessions” which was changed from BLOB to MEDIUMTEXT. MU#36 changes the data type to MEDIUMBLOB.
The third release candidate for WordPress 3.4 is now available. Since RC2, we’ve fixed a few lingering issues with the new live preview feature, as well as with custom headers and backgrounds. There are no remaining issues, and we plan to release 3.4 in the coming days. But if you think you’ve found a bug, […]
Following check points have been added:
– Systems users for subdomains and for web users will not have own hard disk quota limits after upgrade to Plesk version above 10.4.4
– Error “Failed to perform IDN conversion from UTF-8” occurs during upgrade of IDN subdomains
The following functionality has been added:
[+] Now there is able to exclude execution of statistics.exe from Daily Maintenance script if add registry key daily_script_statistics_disabled (REG_SZ) = true in HKLMSOFTWAREPLESKPSA ConfigConfig
The following bugs have been fixed:
[-] Forwarding does not work in Plesk installed on Windows 2008 on Parallels Virtuozzo Container
[-] Huge backup file is not transferred to the FTP repository because of timeout after 10 minutes
[-] Checkbox “Suspend domain until backup task is completed” is switched on by default on Backup Scheduling page
[-] DUMP_D is not treated as system directory by Plesk
[-] FTPmng.exe reconfigures all domains when unsuspending a single one
[-] There is unable to change hosting settings of any domain if backup task in progress, because websrvmng exclusively locks all ‘read’ commands
[-] File Manager: batch File Copy only copies the first selected directory
The following bugs have been fixed:
[-] Blank pages appear randomly in plesk GUI, because of short field “data” in “session” table. Data type of field “data” in “sessions” table in “psa” database was changed from “TEXT” to “MEDIUMTEXT”. (92138)
[-] Domains are not visible in admin panel if at least on domain with forwarding hosting does not have ‘http://’ in URL. (91218)
[-] Customizing of domain’s PHP Settings in panel.ini has no effect in GUI if parameter name contains a dot. (100155)
The second release candidate for WordPress 3.4 is now available. Since RC1, we’ve made a few dozen final changes. Our goal is to release WordPress 3.4 early next week, so plugin and theme authors, this is likely your last chance to test your plugins and themes to find any compatibility issues before the final release. […]
