RSJoomla! Blog - RSFiles!

In a couple of days, Joomla! 1.6 will reach end of life and will no longer be supported.

All Joomla! 1.6 users are being advised to upgrade to the latest Joomla version, 1.7, before 19 August 2011.

If you have migrated your websites to 1.7, then you’ll be happy to find out that ALL RSJOOMLA! extensions (except RSTickets! - not to be confused with RSTickets!Pro and RSForm! - not to be confused with RSForm!Pro) are compatible with Joomla! 1.7.

We’ve performed multiple tests and code optimization to assure that all our extensions are stable and ready to be used on Joomla! 1.7 websites.

RSFiles! revision 8 comes with several new features and design improvements: Joomla! 1.7 compatibility, briefcase folder with group permissions and RSMail! integration.
