4. History of Joomla
• The genesis of Joomla goes back to August 2005 when the
project broke off from another web design project Mambo. The
whole concern of the development team was to put this content
management software into the open source domain. Internet
users at the OpenSourceMatters website
(www.opensourcematters.org) spoke in support for the new
project and in early September of 2005, Joomla! was born. The
comes from the Arabic for "all together", which is an important
idea for this web design project.
Joomla is now the internet's most popular Content
Management System.

• User Management:
Joomla has a registration system that allows users to
configure personal options. There are nine different user groups
with various types of permissions on which users are allowed to
access, edit, publish and administrate.
• Search:
Help navigate users to most popular search items and
provide the admin with search statistics.
• Language Manager:
There is international support for many world languages
and UTF-8 encoding. If you need your Web site in one language
and the administrator panel in another, multiple languages are
possible.
• Content Management:
Joomla's simplified three-tiered system of articles makes
organizing your content easier. You can organize your content
any way you want and not necessarily how it will be on your Web
