how to make email templates in Joomla? - joomla

I want to make a email template to use in Joomla back-end. does it possible? how?
I looked up at Joomla docs and didn't find my answer. I use Joomla 2.5.7.

Firstly upgrade your Joomla version to the latest 2.5.x version
As for the e-mail template, you will need to install a component that allows such a feature, like a Newsletter component. I personally would recommend JNews, however more can be found at the following link:

Hope this helps

Remove article id from joomla 3.4.8 url

After upgrading my site to Joomla 3.4.8, my URL is showing article id. It was not there before the upgrade.
Can anybody tell me how to fix this problem?
Please help!!
Thanks..
Joomla, by default, includes the article id in the URL in order to avoid problems with articles having the same aliases.
If the previous version of Joomla did not have the article id in the URL, then it might be that you have been using an extension such as sh404SEF and you're not using it anymore.
It might be also that you had a modified core as explained here: http://www.itoctopus.com/how-to-remove-the-article-id-from-joomlas-sef-urls , and the modification was overwritten by the update.

Integrating Laravel app into Joomla CMS

I would like to build a custom application in Laravel framework and include it in Joomla.
What I would like to do is to replace central content of Joomla with application served from content.
Joomla url: http://www.joomlasite.com/campaign-directory -> should show content from laravel url: http://www.joomlasite.com/laravel/directory/showall
I noticed component Joomi for Joomla, but Iam not sure if this component will be able to do that.
Please advice.
Thanks!
I think you mean Jumi, and yes, I think that Jumi can do what you want, but I believe there are other easier ways to achieve what you need to do. What you can do is use the iFrame Wrapper component in Joomla to "wrap" your lavarel application and display it in Joomla. Try that before using a Jumi if possible.

I am looking for a newsletter module for my Joomla based site. I checked at Joomla Extension Forum but did not find any suitable component.
You can give a try to

also if you are familiar with Mailchimp and want to integrate with joomla them
Joomlamailer will be best for you.
You can try ACYMailing component: http://www.acyba.com/en/acymailing.html . I have been using it for 2 years. Scheduling tasks and grouping users are really helpful features you will enjoy

Can we assign multi category to a article in Joomla 1.6

In Joomla! 1.6, there is a new feature that we can define a endless nested categories.
But is there a feature about assign multi categories to a article?
Or is there any extension can do this in joomla! 1.6 or 1.5?
You can do this with Flexicontent, or SOBI, but not K2 or default Joomla
Yes, there's a new component. Go to:
http://usjoomlagurus.com/Extensions/Multi-Categories-For-Articles/flypage.tpl.html
With a default Joomla setup that is not possible.
As this is a pretty common thing one may want or need such an extension may very well exist. Check the Joomla Extensions site/directory.

joomla: adding uploader to component back-end

How can I add an the Joomla built-in uploader to my component's admin back-end such that the file itself is saved in a folder somewhere in the server and the filename or url is saved in the DB? The docs for JHMLBehavior/uploader under http://docs.joomla.org/API16:JHtmlBehavior/uploader are useless, and I've tried Googling for a comprehensive guide on how to do this but couldn't find any.
Please help.
Regards,
Simon
You can check out administrator/components/com_media to see how they use JHTMLBehaviour::uploader(...). The problem is that the fancy script that the uploader is based on is version 1.0 - and it doesn't work....
I would recommend checking this tutorial instead:
http://docs.joomla.org/Creating_a_file_uploader_in_your_component
You're aware that you're looking at the 1.6 version of the code, not 1.5? 1.5 is the current release - 1.6 probably hasn't got the full set of documentation.
