Joomla Updates
A shorter development cycle that will enhance Joomla’s stability by providing more core feature development and adoption. Short-term releases will be in active development for six months, then reach the end-of-life one month after the next version’s release. Long-term support will be active for 15 months, starting with Joomla version 2.5.
Why do I see extensions and templates labeled for Joomla 1.5 and/or 2.5 but not for Joomla 1.6/1.7?
- Remember that technology marches on! Joomla 1.6 and 1.7 versions have been discontinued. Please upgrade to 2.5!! That being said, extensions and templates that are labeled for 2.5 should still work on 1.6 and 1.7.
If a brand-new template/extension was released today, it would be an extension built for Joomla 2.5. It's likely the developer would not take the time to make sure it 1.6/1.7 compatible, although it likely is. Because Joomla 1.6 and 1.7 reached their end of life, they are no longer supported by the Joomla project. So anyone using 1.6/1.7 SHOULD upgrade to 2.5.
There was a significant amount of uncertainty about Joomla's development direction prior to several clarifications which happened in the summer of 2011. This uncertainty caused many extensions developers to not move their extensions from Joomla 1.5 to 1.6/1.7. However, now that Joomla's development direction has been clarified, many are updating their extensions.
We will report our updates progress on this page, so make sure you bookmark it. We plan to update all Point.Click.GO! Packages to Joomla 2.5 in the near future.
