Mobile 3.0 Beta-testing

Friday, 11 March 2022 12:48

Hello! We would like to invite everyone to participate in the public beta testing of Mobile 3.0, which has the following differences compared to the stable version 2.1:

  1. Supports Joomla! 2.5-4.1 and PHP 5.6-8.1.
  2. Everything related to adaptive design (i.e. using a separate template for the mobile version) is moved to the separate package Mobile Adaptive. Without it, Mobile 3.0 works in a "responsive design" mode, i.e. optimizes your existing template.
  3. Now both the mobile version and the desktop version are being optimized so that there is no need to install additional optimizing extensions (and resolve conflicts that may arise).
  4. Added support for "responsive" (which adjusts to screen width) images, tables, videos (HTML5/YouTube/Vimeo/Kickstarter/Twitch), and other embedded elements (Google Maps/Docs/Sheets/Slides and Facebook posts).*
  5. Page optimization code has been significantly redesigned to achieve maximum performance (and to get closer to 100/100 in PageSpeed Insights tests):*
    • Off-request optimization mode in which the page is given to the first visitor as quickly as possible with minimal optimization, after which some extra operations are performed in the background (image optimization, compression by the brotli algorithm, etc.), and the fully optimized page is sent to subsequent visitors.
    • Generation and use of the so-called above-the-fold CSS styles for the main page with asynchronous loading of other styles.
    • Support of DNS prefetch and URL preload.
    • Automatic generation of the srcset attribute for images.
    • Google Fonts loading optimization.
  6. Implemented a page caching, which is much faster than the built-in "System-Page Cache" plugin in Joomla! and is based on a tagged cache, i.e. allows to automatically update the cache when necessary (e.g. creation or editing of articles).
  7. Support of Progressive Web Application (PWA).

* Some features are only available in the Mobile Pro version.

Here are the download links for the packages:

You can either install Mobile 3.0 from scratch or update the existing installation. In the latter case, most likely, you will also need to install the Mobile Adaptive plugin and the new version of the mobile template.

Just in case, do not forget to backup your website before installing/updating beta-version of Mobile 3.0!

We have created a separate forum section to discuss any issues that arise: Mobile Joomla! 3.0 Beta Testing. For private discussions, you can contact us by email: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Any feedback is welcome!

P.S. Do not be afraid to experiment: if something went wrong during testing, you can always restore the settings to their original state by simply typing the code "IDDQD" (w/o quotes) in the admin panel of the Mobile extension.

P.P.S. There is also a secret mode for additional settings (code "IDKFA"): there, in particular, you can switch to using ImageMagick for image processing, enable support for webp and avif formats, use the jpegoptim and optipng utilities, and configure a bunch of other settings that are still under development and not moved to the "main" settings yet.

Joomla! 4.0 and our plans

Tuesday, 17 August 2021 11:03

Hello, dear Mobile Joomla! extension users!

Today Joomla! is 16 years old (it’s the day of the fork from Mambo CMS), and we are waiting for Joomla! 4.0 to be released in a short time. In this regard, we would like to tell you about our plans to further develop our Mobile Joomla! extension.

Mobile 3.0 will be ready for beta testing soon. Major changes:

  1. Supported Joomla! 2.5 to 4.0, PHP 5.6+ is required (7.3+ is recommended). Unfortunately, if your website is still running Joomla! 1.5, Mobile 3.0 does not support it (yet?).
  2. Significantly redesigned and improved page speed optimizations (our goal is 100/100 in the mobile PageSpeed Insight test).
  3. Optimization of responsive websites and desktop mode of adaptive websites.
  4. Support of Progressive Web Application (PWA).
  5. Very fast page cache that is based on the tagged cache approach (cache invalidates automatically after content is changed).
  6. and many-many other improvements…

A more complete list of changes will be posted soon with the official Mobile 3.0-beta announcement.

If you want to be among the first to get access to the beta version, contact us at support[at]mobilejoomla.com, and we will grant you access to a hidden section on the forum where the beta version will be discussed.

A big update to our mobile templates is expected too, but a little later. We are going to switch from jQueryMobile framework to Bootstrap 5.1 and get additional speedup for mobile websites.

The current stable version 2.1.x will receive updates for at least another two years, and if necessary, even longer (if required by our Pro/Club subscribers).

Wait for the news soon!

Bepaint your mobile template!

Wednesday, 30 October 2019 17:51

For many years our Mobile Elegance template supports ThemeRoller tool to create new color styles, but other templates were limited to distributed color presets only. And now we are happy to present you Template Colorizer, the tool that allows changing template colors (e.g. to match your desktop template):

Short usage guide

  1. Select the swatch (color theme) letter name to change (e.g. "A").
  2. Click on the input field to change (e.g. "Background").
  3. Choose a new color either 1) using pop-up (click on the color circle in the bottom right corner to apply) or 2) by typing color's hex code.
  4. Repeat the above procedure for other fields and swatches.
  5. Copy generated CSS style, and append it to template's css/custom.css file.

That's all. Happy creativity!

PS. Note that background color may be overwritten in the templates settings, so don't forget to update or reset it if necessary.
