Joomla! 1.6 ushers in a new era for Website Administrators. With a multitude of new changes and advancement in usability and added functions, especially for administrators, Joomla! 1.6 presents an ideal CMS that is both powerful and flexible, as well as being easy to use and control. Check out some of our top reasons why Joomla! 1.6 is THE CMS for Website Administrators.

• New Administrator Functions: Site Administrators will notice the new look of Joomla! 1.6 from the moment they log in. From the brand new Administrator Navigation menu, to the added functions of “Save & Add” in Content, the new Joomla! is all about efficiency and saving you time, while still giving you the familiar options and control you need.
• New Admin. Template Choices: Joomla! 1.6 offers a whole new look at the Administrator Interface with some new templates that extend the Joomla! system. The new template functions allow Administrators to present a simplified and intuitive Administrator Interface to their Managers and other users.
• Advanced ACL: The buzz around Joomla! 1.6 is the release of the revolutionary Joomla! Access Control System. Administrators can now easily restrict Joomla! users from content using the new Access Control Levels right out of the box! What used to be left to the domain of third party extensions or, in many cases, was not even possible now can be accomplished with a few simple clicks! Here is a quick list of some of the capabilities ACL provides: Unlimited user groups A user can be assigned to multiple groups
  • Unlimited access levels
  • Any combination of groups can be assigned to any access level
  • Access permissions can be set at multiple levels in hierarchy: Site, Component, Category, Object
  • Permissions can be inherited from parent Groups and parent Categories for faster user management.
• New Module Configuration Options: The new module configuration options will save administrators around the world headaches as they try to publish their content on their pages. With the added ability to now publish modules on “All Pages Except Selected”, presenting your module content where you want it, and, more importantly, keeping it hidden where you don’t want it, is now standard.
• New Category Structure: To make your life easier, Joomla 1.6 no longer has Sections. It has nested categories instead. That means you can now have a main category with unlimited sub-categories that can have their own sub-categories, etc.. There is no limit to how deep your multi-level category hierarchy can be and the neat thing about this new setup is that you have complete transparency – you can easily view and manage your categories at every level.
• New SEO Functions: New advanced SEO features such as the ability to add Meta descriptions and keywords to categories as well as change the page title depending on the article view, and add the site name to the Title, means that Site Administrators will be able to easily control and present their sites content the way they want to!
• New 404 Redirect Component: The addition of a Joomla1 Core Component handling 404 redirects means peace of mind for Site Administrators. Now, automatically re-routing users from an old page to the new one without them hitting the dreaded “404, Page Not Found” view is an easy reality!
• New Template Styles Functions: The added ability to create multiple instances of your site templates, each with different controls and the ability to edit the template for each instance means the days of changing and uploading the same template multiple times just to get that perfect look on your pages is gone! Now administrators can get the look and feel they want by simply creating a new Template Style right in their Control Panel!
• Language Overrides: Joomla! 1.6 gives site Administrators the ability to implement custom language overrides and protect them from disappearing every time you upgrade! The new custom override functions give you the ability to edit your emails, system messages, and more once, and never have to worry about them again!
• Manual User Approval: Sick of spam users clogging your User Manager and Database? Joomla! 1.6 has that solved! The new ability to allow administrators to manually approve new registered users means that every new user can have the careful eye of the Administrator making sure that your membership isn’t clogged with bogus or fake users!
