Updated JomSocial templates are on the way!

We are honored to be part of the Joomla ecosystem, a shining beacon of light in mostly disorganized domain of Content Management Systems. All good criteria people most associate in a good system is there, speed, reliability, security, extensibility and community. 

Community is the keyword. While some other open source management systems may boast some of the criteria, little actually have a well-organized and strong community behind it. The Joomla ecosystem is a robust network of code contributors, extension developers, users, and template developers who have colored and shaped this once a reborn of Mambo CMS into a now highly successful and most used CMS on the planet. Joomla, we love you!

JomSocial itself could never as healthy without the continued support of fellow extension and template developers. As with any modular system, there are bound to be some incompatibilities from time to time, but on-going development talks among developers manage to overcome this. 

As a token of appreciation from our part, we have crafted a plan to update popular Joomla templates to be compatible with the upcoming JomSocial 2.6. The first outcome of this endeavour can be seen in our Joomlart Development site. The good looking JA Social template has been updated with several new JomSocial 2.6 features, boy it sure looks neat!

Next on the list are Rockettheme RT Tachyon and several other Gantry-based templates. We have developed a particular fondness for Gantry templates by making it the default template at our main development site as our inspection reveals a large number of JomSocial users utilize Rocketheme’s smart templates.

Several Joomla templates from Gavick will also see some compatibility updates for JomSocial 2.6. Over the years, we saw some very nicely done overrides for JomSocial that would be a colossal waste should they were left not updated for the upcoming JomSocial 2.6. We will do our best to get the TWN 2, Music and Musicity ready!

We have also received some reports in our development forum that some new features in JomSocial 2.6 do not behave well in Yootheme templates. We are currently looking at these reports and updates will sure follow.
