Joomla! Discussion Forums

Hi.
Joomla Power Edition lets you choose which addons would you like to install with Joomla itself. Choosen addons will be automaticly installed during standard (with slight modification) Joomla instalation proces.

JoomlaPE is a self executable archive. After opening it under windows it will allow you to choose which addons to install with Joomla. After this all needed files are copied to folder C:\joomlaPE_en from which you upload Joomla on server. After this you follow almost standart installation

After instalation we have Joomla with choosen addons. There is no modification in any file beside installation files so there will be no problem with removing any addon or future upgarde. 

You can find list of addons and more information here - Home page


You can download it here

I would like to thank my firends from www.joomlapl.com who host this project


Artur 'Stone' Moskala

WOW!!!

Fantastic! Thank you!

Is there a possibility to add and delete CMT's to the installation file (and make them appear in the installation menu, of course :-)?

HI, thanks

What do you precisly mean by CMT, as I'm not quite familiar with this term:)

CMT is basically short for components, modules and mambots. This means any application that can get installed in the administrator backend.

I am very interested in an answer to this same question, as I've asked how to add CMTs to the installer and never got an answer
It would be nice to get a simple tutorial on how to add CMTs and languages to the installer..

Thanks Tonie, now I got the picture:)

@eyezberg My way is that I install all CMT's on local, and then copy entires from databse ,with slight changes that are need, to separate sql files wiitch leter on are executed if a files of concrete CMT are present on serwer. And  with windows instalator we are can diecide which files are to be copied and which not. I havent preperd any tutiorial on how to change my install modification as I'm not sure if it will become useful:)

Hi Stone,

And many thanks for your excellent work.

I must say, however, that I did not understand whether it IS or it ISN'T possible to ADD and DELETE components, modules, templates, bots and languages to and from your installer, as opposed to CHOOSING pre-installed functionalities.

Thanks again.

HI
Of course it is possible as I'm planning to develop this instalator further. However it is not simply to explain

As for installer itself you will need NullSoft installer http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page to edit script and add instructions for next addons. The next thing is to modyfie Joomla install files to let it automiticly add during standrat install prcedure. If you are interested in detailed description of it let me know, and I will try to create some manual to the end of the week.

Why not create a component that can install the Joomla way? There are a few tutorials on the help part of the forum that can help you create your own CMT which can be installed/deinstalled from the backend, or am I missing something here now?

Hmm, have you tried this package? For better understending what it does.

Btw package upadted to 1.0.7

Hi !

I'm sorry for my bad english ! I just want to say you that this project is INCREDIBLE  ... I try to do a custom installation for teacher community in order to help them to use JOOMLA (in general, they inderstand anything with internet !!! ). I hope that you write how to configure this installation with our CMT rapidily (fast ) !!!

Thank's a lot for your job ! I wait I wait I wait Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh 

JB

Thank you so much for this stone.   Hopefully you could work on what others have posted about being to add/delete CMTs to the future release of Joomla Power Edition.

Sorry for not posting recently but I had a very busy time. But I was thinking about how to enable for you to add your choosen addons. However so far no luck with this since this is not that simply to do.
I will try think of something for the next version. In meantime you could just tell me which addon would you like to have in it. If you want to have it in you language I could also send you files that need to be translated

Changes in 1.0.4 version you can fiind in first post in this topic

New package with added SMF 1.1RC2, Docman 1.3RC2, Letterman 1.2 ready to download:)

good job i like this
1 thing joomla would look good with as forums is vbulliten
or invision power board both of these are forms and alot better than anny forum out there
and i whant to see these on joomla

but have to pay for both of them and there is no way I can put them into package which conisits only of GPL add-ons, nevertheless you can bulid  great forums with phpb or smf it is just a matter of your imagination and effort:)

i have downloaded and installed with the default settings for 1.0.7a

Hi
Most of this errors is coused bu low lefel of errors reporting on server, change report level to cirical (as it is commonly used on servers and most of them should disapite then we look on what is left:)

"this is administrator panel to allow you to have multilaguage support"
Is it possible to create a multilingual site with Joomla PE, or I have to install other components, like mambel fish?

Hi.

Multilanguage (mainly based on http://www.mgfi.info ) lets you choose language for admin panel only, it doestn have any functionality of  mambelfish. It isnt perfcet since it can only have one labguage version of help and xml files. But rest in admin panel can be easy translated

I have installed Joomla PE and all the components, modules and mambots show up in the proper directories as being installed, but they are not available for use in the administrator section of the Joomla installation.  I don't know how to activiate and use them.

Thanks,
Edward

Hmm, whta do you mean by "not active" - links to them are not visible in admin panel or there are some errors?

Right, the components and such were installed, I can go find them in the proper folders, but they do not show up on the administrator menus to be used.  There must be some way to turn them on that I can't find.  Only the basic components are available for me to use, not all the addons.

Thanks for the reply.

If it is not a problem try to download and install latest version of project. It is hard for me to tell what coused the problem since it look like some sql queries wasnt executeted during installtion proces.
New installation should help with this problem. If not we will look furhter into the problem:)

Stone JOOMLA POWER ROCKS!!
everything works perfect.
thanks for a great product

can you give us more detailed info about installing SMF?

do we need to use smf update package or regular installation package???

if you give step by step instructions  joomla lovers can utilize your product
and by passes installation of so many componants and modules

this product might be perfect for joomla newbies

trying to install joomla PE, got this error on the very first screen.

```````````````````````````````````

Any idea, how to resolve this.

thanks.

got it, just removed the first function of the file language_detection.php in the installation folder and added these two lines.

$language_install = 'english';
$language_install_img = $language_install;


it worked.

@mamboturk - Hi, I have detailed intructions how to install in polish, I onlu dont have time to translate it to english:), But I will try to do it in the next few days

@linkrink thank for information, I will look into this, as it seems it doesnt happen on all serwers. Could you give details of your sever configuration

Today I realed 1.0.8d with two changes:
1. my integration of Phpbb2 by Przemo
Modification of popular forum phpbb2 from site http://www.przemo.org. This modification is based on phpBB 2.0.X script, it contains about 200 add-ons, with ability to switch off any of them in admin's panel. Bridge is still released as beta as I will continue to work on it, all main features of it are working on my localhost but more testing is needed to check it with different server configurations.

Present features of integration:
- all users aspects are integrated: registration, login, adding new users, deleting users, editing users
- the is no option to run forum in component mode, only stand alone
- required settings (predefined in JoomlaPE)
Joomla prefix – jos_
Forum prefix – phpbb_
Forum dir – forum
In final version of integration those parameters will be changeable.

2. Upgrade of SMF bridge to 1.1 stable

Stone I don't know polish !!
You do have a very good product.
You need to translate installation  info  to english
wso many people wants to entegrate SMF to joomla
JOOMLA POWER could be the perfect candidate for this.

i installed this by only selecting smf, fcke, joomlaXPlorer. everything was fine until i do the patching stuff for smf integration. then it says "Restricted access" on a blank page when i preview my website.

what shall i do now?
