The release of JGive 2.0 was just the first in the fresh new UI/UX first approach at Techjoomla. We are overwhelmed with your response and feedback on this release. Thank you for your support !                                
On this background, we would like to introduce the next iteration for JTicketing - version 2.0. Besides a fresh new look, this release will bring forth some fantastic ‘infrastructure’ extensions that we have been working on for the last few months. And yes JTicketing 2.0 is a full rewrite & as in the case of JGive only supports Bootstrap 3.  

Note: JTicketing 2.0 will support Joomla version 3.6.5 and above

Over the years we have received numerous requests to create a 'real manager’ or a way to edit system email notifications. We decided to go one step further. Enter TJ Notifications, our next 'horizontal’ or 'infrastructure’ extension.

This extension will eventually allow all our products and any other products who integrate it to centrally manage all notifications in your Joomla site. While we will start with emails, eventually we shall be adding support for SMS/Text notifications, Web Push (browser notifications) as well as native site notifications.

We have been getting a lot of emails regarding the compatibility of Shika with Joomla 3.7! We are happy to let you know that Shika 1.1.7 is compatible with Joomla 3.7.2! We have the following known UI issues with Joomla 3.7.2 : Frontend >> Course Page >> Set Goal >> Click on calendar >> it gets cut out(#105638)Frontend >&...

You might have wondered at our blogs being a little silent. Well a lot has been happening behind the scenes. In the past several months our teams have been working on a host of ‘Infrastructure’ extensions that will add immense value and decrease development time for our extensions as well as custom projects.  

Infrastructure extensions are like Joomla’s core com_categories. Other extensions can use it without having to recreate the wheel. The below diagram should give you just a little bit of an idea as to what all is coming !

In this blog we shall be talking about one such extension - TJ Vendor. Techjoomla today already has several extensions like Quick2Cart, JGive, JTicketing that support a multi vendor mode. Soon Shika will have the same functionality. The core of the multi vendor system that supports Vendor Management, Fees management, Payouts to name a few have been abstracted into a reusable extension.

We are happy to bring to you Shika 1.1.5. The original 1.1.0 release introduced Course assignment support via jLike integration. However at that point the assignment reminders were not ready for prime time. In this release we have introduced the same. Though this it's now possible to setup multiple reminders that can be sent to users reminding of t...

When we posted about our new design first approach for jGive nEXT back in December, 2016, we received a host of emails and comments with some excellent feedback. We thank you for all the love you have shown and bring to you the first release in the nEXT series - JGive 2.0 !

The biggest features that we introduce in this release are the revamped UX, a rich activity stream and an awesome new dashboard along with php 7.1 compatibility. One key thing to remember is that this is a ‘Major’ release which breaks backward compatibility. This means that you will need to rework any html overrides you have done when you plan your upgrade. Also note that as announced we will be dropping Bootstrap 2 support in this release. This also means that if you are using our partner template - JSN Fidem, you need to wait for Joomlashine to release a new version with Bootstrap 3 before you can upgrade.

Everyone is advised to read the release note carefully before upgrading to the latest version. Read on to know more regarding the features and a detailed changelog.

Till now we have been maintaining both Bootstrap 2 & Bootstrap 3 layouts for all extensions. However this is taking a toll on the release cycle and changes have to be done in both the layouts.

Over time we have seen that very few customers are using Bootstrap 2 templates now so this decision seems logical to take. However we have always maintained that we will maintain Bootstrap2 support till the Joomla core maintains it and we wanted to be double sure before taking this decision.

So we reached out to various popular template clubs both over the internet and at conferences we attend, the latest being at JWC Vancouver to get their feedback. Template clubs typically have a much larger user base and typically know more of what the masses are using. The feedback there too was that the users using Bootstrap 2 are very less and they too are seem to be migrating to Bootstrap 3.  Post this, we decided that the time had come to stop supporting Bootstrap 2.

We are happy to announce the release of Shika 1.1.2. This is a maintenance release and fixes some bugs in the previous versions. We suggest upgrading to the latest release. Click on read more for the full changelog.
