Event Sponsors

redCOMPONENT.comAs the largest consultancy and development house in the Joomla community, and now counting more than 50 people in in 8 countries in the redTEAM, we take pride in supporting the society which forms the platform for our business.

It is important to give back to the community and help fuel the world of Joomla, so it can grow bigger and become even more global known than it already is.

The development of Joomla is driven by users and the amazing developers and designers across the world and ideas to new features, designs or methods of thought are added every day because we not only are diverse but also inspire diversity and creativity.

But not only Joomla but also the 3rd party extensions like our redSHOP , redEVENT, redFORM, redMEMBER and more than 200 other extensions for Joomla are all powered by and fueled by the feature request and diverse way of looking upon what software should be and what it should do.

Joomla days and not least J and Beyond helps to create the cohesion and creativity that carries Joomla onwards and enages and commits people to the community. We want to support the community which is Joomla and which Joomla is based upon by sponsoring events like J and Beyond so it is with great pride that we again this year take on the role as main sponsor for J and Beyond 2012.

redCOMPONENT.com and our mother company redWEB.dk wish all participants at J and Beyond 2012 an extremely entertaining and inspiring event that will fuel your engagement and passion for Joomla and the community in the years to come.

On behalf of the entire redTEAM from redCOMPONENT.com, redWEB.dk, redHOST.dk and iRedHOST.com.

JP-LOGO-cCommunity Builder (CB) is a social networking framework for the Joomla Content Management System (CMS).

Joomlapolis is proud to sponsor the JandBeyond event for the third year in a row! This year we are sponsoring the Video recording to make sure that the J&B magic reaches everyone in the world!

The Core CB package (latest version is CB 1.8) can be downloaded free of charge from Joomlapolis (registration is needed) and works on all versions of Joomla (including latest Joomla 2.5.1) and Mambo also.

Community Builder addresses many key social networking features including registration and approval workflows, membership data gathering, user profiles (organized with ‘tabs’ and ‘fields’), member interactions (called ‘connections’) and community moderation tools (‘reporting’, ‘banning’, ‘blocking’). Unlimited membership lists can also be created that are filtered by specific user CB field data and have powerful built-in search functionality.

Additional CB core functions integrate with the underlying CMS and key extensions to integrate content articles (from Joomla) and forum threads (integrates with Joomla forum extensions) in author profiles and to provide integrated private messaging functions (integrates with Joomla private messaging extensions) for CB membership inter-communication.

The Community Builder platform can also be extended by installing CB Plugins that use the CB Application Programming Interface (API). Hundreds of CB Plugins are available by the CB Team and third party developers. Joomlapolis paid membership is available and includes many extra add-ons and support.

CB GroupJive can be used to add powerful user group features to Community Builder websites and to empower members to self-organize and grow. Group wall, private forums (using Kunena integration), group private messaging (using uddeIM integration), group activity notifications, video, photo and file sharing are some of the key features of GroupJive.

Joomlapolis also offers CBSubs the most powerful Paid Subscriptions Membership Management solution for Community Builder and Joomla. Using CBSubs you can leverage any Joomla or CB content and charge subscription fees for access privileges. Integrates with many popular Joomla extensions and supports many payment service providers. CBSubs also has the most flexible promotions engine and automated marketing messaging system available.

Joomlapolis also offers lightning fast templates for Joomla and CB, business class hosting and Professional services (installation and consulting).
