Related Product in VirtueMart is great but It can break the layout of your design. I am not talking about the module - you have full control over the module - I am talking about the Related Proructs that display at the bottom of a product!

Its fixed to display 4 items in one row! So if your design's main-content area is narrow it could break and look like this:

You see the items expanded beyond the contents area and reached the sidebar on the right. I spent hours trying to figure where to control it from the administration panel without any success! I even downloaded the user manual but failed to find anything can fix it!

So, a new hack journy began VirtueMart URLs helps you to understand where you should start :

index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl

Recently I have been working on a huge project took over 2 months. This project involved building a custom Joomla template , modules and modifying existing components and modules. After I finished this site I had like 12 modified component , 5 new and modified modules and a task to install it over 50 websites!!

There are some components help you create a backup of your website helping you to install it on new servers like JoomlaCloner. I wanted to do it without any 3rd party addons and it worked. I created my installer version loaded with all the addons and contents I need

To create a custom Joomla installer you need :

• A copy of the database.
  This can be done using any database backup utility. My favorites are JoomlaPack and eBackup. You can also create it using phpMyadmin from your control panel.
• A copy of your work files.
• Installation package from Joomla.org

Ten days passed since I released my first module, I was so excited so I decided to add more features and make some modifications. I would like to thank my friend Chris without you, this module could never exist!!

DOCman Ultimate Download Module helps you listing your DOCman documents in a better way by setting parameters like :

Favorites icon are litle icons associated with a particular website or webpage, shown next to the site's name in the URL bar of most browsers.

Genfavicon is a free online tool you can use to generate favicon for your website. It takes just one page to do it all :

1. Upload your image.
2. Select which part of the image to be used.

I really enjoyed using this tool as it save me a lot of time. Best thing is you're able to scale the image and choose which part exactly you want to use; So its not just about resizing

Also it gives you a snapshout about how your favicon is going to look on Firefox. Take a look:

About three weeks ago, I came across a portfolio of a talented graphic designer. Sway is really awesome when it comes to illustration and graphics! He converted my picture to a mascot in less than two days for a good price. I really like it and I'm happy with my new logo. I spent a few minutes playing with the layers...
