It's been a week since we posted some leaks on EasyBlog 2.1 and just thought that I should share more about the new features that we've added in it since we are getting near towards the beta release...

Refreshed blog management

The current back end has been revamped to ensure that you would get a clearer picture of all the rich features that comes with EasyBlog unlike the prior which looks a little congested. Oh yes, the refreshed back end works well with Mission Control from Rocket Themes now.

Joomla! had recently released Joomla 1.6.2 which breaks small parts of the back end section of EasyBlog where they are no longer loading the core mootools library on pages that doesn't use them. We have uploaded a new version which will fix these issues but if you are not affected by this, you can just discard this update.

Stay tune for the next post on some teaser for EasyBlog 2.0

We are so excited to show you some of our satisfied users who already adopted our blog component for Joomla! EasyBlog in their Joomla! websites.

There are thousands of sites already using EasyBlog but in this page, we are showcasing some of them and we will continue to update this page with more success stories.

More stuff after the jump.

We just released a newer version of our Joomla! blog component EasyBlog now at version 1.8.154!

Some of the major inclusion is EasyBlog now supports Swedish language. You can now use EasyBlog in Swedish inga problem alls! :D

We also did some enhancements to work better in Joomla! 1.6 like login issues, event triggers, modules fixes, to name a few.

See the full list of fixes in our changelog HERE.

It's official! We just released the stable EasyBlog 1.8.152 NEO a while ago..

You already set up your Joomla! website, beautified it and got all the content ready, so what's next? Make money, of course! It may be free to use Joomla! CMS but who pays for web hosting services? domain names? Joomla! extensions and plugins?

These costs money and you as the site owner have to fork out few hundred bucks for this. In this blog, I am sharing one of the ways to make money from your Joomla! site. It will not be a list of money makers but specifically making money from advertisement.

This article written by JoomlaIsreal spelled out the criterias to follow to get your Joomla! website prepared for selling advertising spaces. It may not be a one-size-fits-all solution but it's quite informative albeit some points in it seem to be common but hey, the first step is always the hardest but who is stopping you? ;)

In the meantime, I wish you best of luck in your money making endeavors!

We are excited to announce EasyBlog Community is now available!

Prior to this, EasyBlog was supposed to be named with a 'Professional' word in it and from today onwards, that word will be there - EasyBlog Professional. Both versions are the same except for Community comes with only 3 templates (from 11 templates) and a 'Powered by StackIdeas' link back at the bottom portion of the blog layout.

The reason for making this version available is because we want to encourage more users aware of the goodness of blogging, especially websites that run on the Joomla! platform. We want more people to start blogging and that means having the component easily adopted by experienced or novice users. EasyBlog Community has a price tag easy enough on anyone's pocket to start blogging right away at $45 a copy.

You will also be offered professional technical support from us and regular component updates on every 2-3 months cycle. Plus, an auto-subscription of our regular newsletter for the latest from our stables on products and news too.
