One of the questions I get every once in a while when I'm creating a form in Mautic to embed on my website is which form type should I choose.
In this video, I'm going to answer that question. It's actually a pretty simple answer.
Let's dive in.
It’s no secret that one of the reasons for the great success of WordPress is its extensibility via plugins.
WordPress.org hosts over 57,000 plugins alone. You could get lost down the rabbit hole if you are not careful.

Let's take a look.

The default date format in Joomla is based on United Kingdom English. Not everyone wants this date format.
If you’ve ever wanted to change the date format in Joomla from day month year to US date standard of month day, year, then this is the post for you. Let’s get started.
From its conception, the fundamental (ground) idea of the internet was the exchange of information through code snippets of a markup language. This is still the ground principle that moves the internet these days. There are, of course, a lot of other things you can do over the internet, but it all comes down to an exchange of information.
With this kind of freedom, it is not surprising, that people abuse this for their own benefit. Spam comments are a form of abusing this privilege.
The combination of the Drupal modules Honeypot and Antibot will ensure that your site is “almost” 100% protected from spam (at least the ones produced by robots).

Today we're going to be talking about a very important topic which is two factor authentication inside of Joomla websites.
So we know that over 80% of website breaches come through passwords, but how can we avoid this on our own Joomla website?
Well, we can turn on two-factor authentication. What that means is that we'll have a username, a password, and then a randomly generated code produced from something that is on your person physically (ex: cell phone).
Joomla offers two ways to enable two factor authentication:
Let's take a look at these options!
When I started my career as a web developer, we would use a text editor to write HTML in local files, and then use File Transfer Protocol to copy them to a web server on the internet, and then refresh the browser and wait for the changes to be visible.
We’ve come a long way since then. These days it’s becoming more and more common to run a web server right on your own computer, and not upload anything until the entire site is complete. I recently did a video series for OSTraining, "An Introduction To Local WordPress Development With LocalWP", which not only sets up a local web server, but also helps get WordPress itself setup and configured, as well as providing a number of other tools. Here’s some of what I covered.
I don't know about you, but as a site builder when I add a date field to a content type in Drupal, and I tell it I do NOT want the time just the date and then I go to a node, and I enter the date, and it shows me both the date AND the time... it kind of drives me crazy!
How do we fix it? In this video, I'm going to show you how to create new date & time formats in Drupal sites, so you don't have to worry about getting a time and a date when you only want the date. And, as a bonus, you'll get it in the format that you want.

One of the fastest ways your WordPress site will get hacked is if you don't pay attention. Well ,how do you know when stuff needs attention?
In this video, I want to talk to you about a really simple plugin called Update Notifier that helps to keep your WordPress site up to date. This Is going to let you know when parts of your wordpress website need to be updated. Now WordPress updates itself in minor releases but not major releases, and your plugins and themes don't automatically update, so you need to maintain those well.
If you don't regularly log into your WordPress site, how do you know?
Let's find out!
Blog owners and owners of news sites like to keep their readers engaged. That is, they try to keep the user focused on the content, so they do not leave the site.
Many blogs make use of an infinite scroll effect, to display posts and articles (custom post types) on their WordPress sites. This technique is used to generate clicks from the reader. It resembles the feed of all known social networks, maybe that is the reason why it is so popular.
The Ajax Load More plugin for WordPress provides this functionality. You can then enhance it to your liking, through the configuration options available.

With the Drupal Book module, it is possible to create collections of related pieces of documents presented in a hierarchy. This format is suitable for handbooks and tutorials, for example.
Notice: This module is not for creating ebooks.
The Book module comes by default (disabled) with Drupal core modules, so there is no need to download or install anything additional on your system.
