How to display more than 20 items in Joomla Admin

There is a default of 20 line items set in many Joomla backend administration menus – including articles, modules, plugins and the extension manager. This ‘lines per page’ can be changed but it’s not stored next time you login. Here’s how to permanently get Joomla to remember how many lines you’d like to see.

Global configuration > Site settings > List Length

Nice WordPress Theme

Just a short post today – we came across this very nice WordPress theme the other day.

Nice WordPress Theme

The creators are www.wpshower.com. They have 10 themes on their site and nearly all of them are free, but all are very high quality.

If you’re starting out in WordPress, a pre-built theme is a useful place to start, and can save you both time and money. As your site develops you may need the services of a web designer. A web designer who understand WordPress can take an existing theme and adapt it seamlessly to your vision, or can build a unique theme just for you. Many web designers and developers use 2020Media’s services, so let us know if we can help put you in touch with one.
