Joomla 1.5 book to be released soon

If you have been following the blog, and things like the release of a sample chapter about Creating a Pure CSS Joomla 1.5 Template you will know that my new Joomla book about Joomla Joomla 1.5 is complete.

If you have been following the blog, and things like the release of a sample chapter about Creating a Pure CSS Joomla 1.5 Template you will know that my new book about Joomla Joomla 1.5 is complete.

In order to get ready for the publication of the book, I have set up a special website at www.joomlabook.com.

This site is the companion site for this new book about Joomla 1.5 published by Prentice Hall. This site is an important part of the book, an experiment in print and web publishing!

www.joomlabook.com features:

  • five fully functional Joomla 1.5 sites with live follow-along examples from the book
  • up-to-date information on Joomla 1.5 based on the book, revisions and Joomla changes
  • a forum where you can ask questions specific to chapters from the book
  • downloads of free sample chapters and files for Joomla 1.5
You can currently buy the book from Amazon (link on the Joomla Book site), but if you are a subscriber at www.compassdesigns.net, hold off! Prentice Hall and I are setting up a special discount for Compass subscribers!

If you aren't a subscriber, there is a sign up form at www.joomlabook.com.

Need Something Sooner?

If you can't wait till the User's Guide to 1.5 is published, we have an ebook available for sale right now for only $27, the Joomla Administrator's Manual. (This manual is for the 1.0.X version of Joomla Joomla!)

Hi,

Can you tell me if this book covers the changes to the component engine of joomla 1.5 or if there is a similar book that teaches the 1.5 component engine?

Thanks

It isn't really a development )code) book. You might want to try Joe LeBlanc's one for that.
