It has been noted that there are a few important changes to Joomla! that come with the 1.5.15 update that should be noted. They made some changes to the .htaccess file (htaccess.txt in the upgrade package) that deny access to all xml files on your directory. This is great as it disallows access to your xml files so that hackers can't use them to see your extension version info.

The only problem with this is if you want any of your xml files to be publicly accessible (xml feeds, google xml feed for webmaster tools, etc.), you will need to put exceptions for those individual files in your .htaccess file . . . which honestly is a pain if you have several xml files you want to be viewable.

OR, if you are one of our Joomla! hosting customers, your xml files are already protected by our server configuration. So, thank you Joomla! for realizing and offering a fix for this for those whose sites are not on a Joomla! optimized host. Not having to worry about this is yet another benefit of hosting with Simple Source Solutions.
This is a note to all of our Joomla! hosting customers. A new security update for Joomla! was released yesterday. To get the Joomla! 1.5.15 update visit Joomla!'s download page.

All of our website design customers and website maintenance customer websites have already been updated to 1.5.15. If you're interested in Getting Simple with your Joomla! website maintenance, take a look at signing up for our Joomla! hosting services and select the one or both of the Website Maintenance Addons available. If you're an existing hosting customer, you can easily sign up for our Maintenance Services from your account here at getsimple.net.

Going International

Okay, so we're not an international company per se, but we have been getting several hosting customers from overseas as of late. One such new hosting customer from Mexico was happy enough with our services to post a comment on our Joomla! Resources Directory Listing in Spanish:

Simple Source Solutions tiene un excelente servicio y atención a clientes, su tiempo de respuesta es rápido, la información y soporte técnico no te dejarán colgado, lo recomiendo ampliamente. La instalación de Joomla se efectua sin problemas y en menos de 10 minutos, con todo trabajando muy bien.

Tuve problemas con otros proveedores con error de inicio de sesión, error en el Media Manager y error en el Editor TinyMCE y no se comprometen a reparar o arreglar, te engañan y cobran por adelantado sin solucionarte las fallas, en soporte técnico de Site Ground me contestaron que si no publicaba mis articulos sin el editor TinyMCE, o sea directamente en HTML, de plano no los volviera a contactar, así que no te arriesgues y contrata directamente en Simple Source Solutions porque te lo recomiendo.

Here's a loose translation a friend did for us:

Simple Source Solutions has excellent service and attention to client, their time of response is rapid, and the IT and tech support will not leave you hanging. I reccommend them highly. Installing Joomla was effected without problems and in less than 10 minutes, with everything working very well.

I had problems with other providers with session initialization errors, Media Manager errors and errors in the Editor TinyMCE, which they didn't know how to undertake repairing or fixing them. Other providers deceive you and charge ahead without fixing problems. In Site Ground tech support, I replied that if he did not publish my articles without the TinyMCE editor, or directly in HTML, I would flat not contact them again. So play it safe and hire directly from Simple Source Solutions because I recommend it.

They apparently didn't seem to like siteground's supposed "joomla friendly hosting", but they sure seem to like us.  Thanks for the great feedback!

While we won't be moving our headquarters overseas just quite yet, as you can see, we do very happy customers from places like the Philippines, Spain, Canada, and now of course Mexico.

Introducing the New Vinings.org

viningsshot

Simple Source Solutions is proud to present www.vinings.org, a new website for the Vinings Historic Preservation Society in Vinings, Georgia. The VHPS needed a new website to not only beautifully represent Historic Vinings, but moreover it needed to function as a resource to the valuable members and community events, such as the Vinings Tour of Homes, that support their efforts. So, amongst all the sophistication, you're sure to notice image slideshows, event registration, online membership sign-up and renewals, secure pages for transactions, and fresh new copy to accompany their expanded brand.

There's plenty going on behind the scenes on their site. For much of the site's functionality we have made good use of the powerful component civiCRM. Now the VHPS has more available to it's organization than mere credit card transactions. They have a whole suite of tools at their disposal, sending out membership renewal reminders, managing member info, sending out event information, and plenty more supporting their efforts.

The VHPS stays pretty busy with their mission and efforts–leaving little time to fool around with a website. So, when it comes time for site updates, they've chosen to utilize our time and expertise in keeping their site up to date with both our Content Concierge and Addon Maintenance Services. Our website maintenance services help keep many of our customers' sites current.

If you haven't seen what Historic Vinings has to offer, please do check out the VHPS. They have been a pleasure to design for and we look forward to supporting them well into the future.
