I am using joomla 1.6.3 version . Now i need to enter some form data from front page and administrator can view, edit and delete that data.
For the above task any components available in joomla 1.6.3.
I've had very good luck using the free RSForm! component. Very flexible and very customizable. It is technically written for Joomla 1.5, but you shouldn't have any problems running it under version 1.6

I am working on upgrading this site that has Joomla 1.5 and Old Virtuemart along with some custom code(mostly in VirtueMart). I need to upgrade this config to Joomla 2.5 and Virtuemart 2.0.24.
I searched on internet and could only find how to upgrade Joomla 1.5 to Joomla 2.5.
Please provide a series of steps that I should follow to upgrade.
Also, what are the precautions that I should take and How can I keep the custom code intact.
First you will need to upgrade Joomla 1.5 to 2.5. You might consider going to 3.5 since the LTS is due out soon, but it's not totally necessary.
Once you have that upgraded, you will need to copy all of the VM tables from your old DB to the new one. Make sure to update the table prefixes so they match the new install. Once you have moved the tables, then you install VM2.0. Next, in your new VM install, go to Tools > Tools & Migration > Migration and run the migration for everything.
That's the easy part. The custom code is probably not going to be of much use to you. The entire templating system has been upgraded to work with typical Joomla overrides and the rest of the component was rewritten from scratch as a true Joomla MVC component. You will have to find all of the customization and reapply that to the new component by hand.
I've upgrade my joomla version 1.5.26 to joomla version 2.5.4 and all the things has been upgraded successfully. So when i goes into my joomla module manager admin panel then it is not showing me any kinds of modules which was previously visible in my old version(1.5.26) but in my frontend panel it can be seen easily.Does anyone knows the solution how to fix it?
When you said you migrated, I assume you used an extension such as jUpgrade.
Migrating will update the core file and database tables and thus should show all the core Joomla modules in the Module Manager, however it does not upgrade your 3rd party extensions, therefore you will need to download the Joomla 2.5 compatible versions. This upgrade however, should be showing your core modules in the list.
I hope you took a backup of your 1.5 site. If you did, trying running the upgrade again and if you didn't use jUpgrade, I suggest you do so.
Hope this helps
make sure you're using the standard template for joomla. Go to module manager, choose Administrator in the first filter, and see if all modules are published in actual module positions (i.e. cpanel, status, footer, icon, login, menu, submenu, toolbar I guess that's it for administrator)
How can I start developing a component for the Joomla 1.5 framework? Does anyone know of a good tutorial, or has a good reference?
I have read the tutorial on the wiki and I didn't understand it well, so if you could point me to another one, that would be great.
I know that ideally I should work with Joomla 2.5 or 3.0 but I am being asked to develop this for an existing website, I can't decide which version to work on.
I think the official tutorials in Joomla! Documentation really do cut it. Give it a try - http://docs.joomla.org/Component_Development
I can't decide which version to work on
I personally would use Joomla 2.5 as it's the long term lease of the Joomla series and has much more documentation and support. Joomla 3.0 is the short term release, therefore is a beta version of 3.5 so to speak.
Seeing as you are using Joomla 1.5 at the moment, you could always upgrade to Joomla 2.5 using JUpgrade which is a free extension. Note that this won't upgrade 3rd party extensions, so you will need to install the Joomla 2.5 compatible versions for each one (providing there is one).
To get you started on a Joomla 2.5 component, have a look at the Joomla 2.5 MVC Documentation. This also provides zip files of a HelloWorld component for you to download at various stages.
You might also be interested in a Component Generator.
Hope this helps.
i am quite new to joomla and need to create three(3) registration forms and also adding privileges based on the form. Can anyone tell me how to go about this? I am using joomla1.5.
Thanks
Well, what you asking for is very hard -almost impossible- to achieve using Joomla! 1.5.
I would recommend you upgrade to Joomla! 1.7 since it has a built in system for Access Control and creating different users privileges and you can check Community Builder. It will be a great place to start from!
I have a web application on joomla 1.0.15 with virtumart 1.0.15 and mojoblog beta v0.16 . There are some changes in virtue mart core file and table structure according to my application requirement. I want to upgrade joomla with virtuemart and mojoblog component. Please guide me tell me a proper way to do this. My application a have a lot user information and order records in database. Need your suggestion.
Thanks
You are not going to be able to easily upgrade your site to 1.5. The biggest problem you face is that Mojoblog is not a 1.5 extension and is no longer supported. At a minimum, you will have to find a replacement for that. How you use it will determine which extensions are suitable replacements, but there is almost certainly an extension that will fit your needs. Blog type extensions are plentiful for Joomla 1.5.
In order to migrate from 1.0 to 1.5 you can follow the official Joomla guide - http://docs.joomla.org/Migrating_from_1.0.x_to_1.5_Stable
