Running Joomla! from a CDWe've all wanted it. We've all dreamed about the possibilities; which are ENDLESS, by the way! We've come close before, but now it's here and it looks VERY PROMISING.

(listen to the JoomlaForBeginners.com Podcast in English)

The guys at  Joomlas2Go bring us a new way of approaching this Joomla! running on a CD solution, by incorporating the Server2Go project into their build. It also works on almost any portable media, thumbdrives are great!

If you have any doubts about this product, we're launching a Video Tutorial to show you just how well the Joomlas2Go product works! Stay Tuned...

While it isn't without limitations, we find it nothing short of brilliant for a first release. It works (for the most part) exactly the way one expects it to, "out of the box". There are a couple minor changes to make to a config file, but it's quick and simple. We love this and will be keeping a keen eye on it for future updates.

We tested 3 versions so far.

We experienced an issue when attempting to use several 1.5 templates from a vendor that shall remain nameless. Although the templates did installed correctly, the front-end displayed only blank pages after setting one of the new templates as the Joomla! default template. 

Once I read the authors comment below, I extracted the zip file again for Joomlas2go_1.5.3. This time I tried installing a new template from RocketThemes.com. It worked successfully, and more importantly displayed correctly in the front end.

Thank you for your quick comment, and thank you again for such an excellent product.

I didn't mean to say anything bad, I love your product!

I experienced this issue when attempting to use several 1.5 templates from a vendor that shall remain nameless. Although the templates did installed correctly, the front-end displayed only blank pages after setting one of the new templates as the Joomla! default template.

Today, once I read your comment on the Website, I extracted the zip file again for Joomlas2go_1.5.3. This time I tried installing a new template from RocketThemes.com. It worked successfully, and more importantly displayed correctly in the front end.

Thank you for your quick comment, and thank you again for such an excellent product.

Dear Friends,
First of all, thanks for linking to our Joomla's2Go! site project... You made me very happy with your published words in this post...
On other hand, I am worry about the error you mentioned,a s follows:

We received a file permission error while attempting to assign a default template on version 1.53 English

I re-tested the published package and everything runs well in my pc.. I have no problem to swith from Site or admin templates inside the Joomla! 1.5.3 EN built-in compilation... Accordinglly I can not duplicate your mentioned error to try to solve it..

Please, send me the error message that your are receiving that will help me to track it or to understand why happens!

Feel free to send me a message with this details through our website http://www.joomlas2go.net, though the menu "Contact Us" and select "Bug report" before to send it.

Rgrds,
Gabriel
