Blog
Newsfeeds

User Registration and login module

Template Installer
And other features
These features and menu buttons can easily be unpublished "turned off" if you choose and published again later if you decide to use them. Or they can be deleted completely. Numerous components and plugins are available for features such as real estate listings, forums, banner advertising, galleries, community websites and many other types of functions you may need for your website later on.
When your website is set up, you will have 5 custom pages of your own in addition to all these features. To use the other features which come with Joomla, simply replace the Joomla content with your own in the Administrator's Control Panel. It's easy to do. Joomla is a powerful content management system which is highly configurable and customizable. Extra pages and navigation menu buttons can be added with just a few clicks of your mouse. Components and plugins which come with the system can be duplicated for extensive content creation. Need a second blog on your site? Create one in seconds. Want to add a forum? You can easily add a forum component to your website. Joomla's website at www.joomla.org features a listing of hundreds of components and plugins available, many of which are free. Just download them to your computer, login to your Joomla Administrators panel, and upload the zipped file with the Installer feature which comes with Joomla. Would you like a forum or other software separate from your Joomla website? With CFO Hosting, you also get the Elefante Script Installer to install over 30 free scripts such as blogs, forums, galleries, and a lot more.
