Awesome admin template!
Exactly as advertised and then some! So much easier and faster to get around in the "back-end". This great template is now the very first item installed in all of the Joomla! sites I put together!

We're extremely pleased to announce the release of our all new Joomla! administrator panel template, AdminPraise Lite! AP Lite is the world's fastest Joomla! admin template and that's no b.s. AP Lite isn't just about speed, it's also about functionality.  We've sprinkled in lots of features and improvements gathered during the development of our premium admin templates (AdminPraise1 and 2) but added everything in moderation. For Joomla! newbies and veterans, AP Lite will make Joomla! administration a joy. The speed and layout provide a fresh take on the best open source CMS around.

AdminPraise Lite is the culmination of all our Joomla! experience, and we couldn't be happier to give it to the Joomla! community for free under the GNU/GPL license! We're also including some extremely helpful admin extensions which can be used with or without AdminPraise Lite and are also free. If you want to show some love and ensure the longevity of AP Lite please tweet, blog, and talk about it to everyone!

This initial release is a beta. We've thoroughly tested and made sure AP Lite is compatible with the most popular Joomla! extensions, but we're only human so please report all issues to our forum but ONLY after watching all these videos!

BIG thanks go out to Stian Didriksen from the NinjaForge.com team, for his invaluable Joomla! programming wizardry, and of course big thanks to our team of slaves rocket scientists.

Continuing with our movement to truly collaborate with as many Joomla developers as possible, we were sent a test copy of corePHP's WordPress MU for Joomla! For the unacquainted, this is a full version of WordPress INSIDE Joomla! for those who want the best blog software inside the most versatile CMS.

If you think Joomla is easy to manage, and you haven’t tried out AdminPraise2, you have no idea what the word ‘easy’ really means. Through all of the ads, reviews, banners and notices that are on the web for this template monster, we’ve gained a lot of loyal customers, but we know that there are many more of you out there that haven’t given this a try yet. Here are a few more reasons why you should buy this template from us.

We are absolutely thrilled to (finally) release AdminPraise2 Stable! We've chased down the latest bugs, packaged it up and put a bow on AP2.  Since AP2 is our flagship product, we've also put together a sales site at www.adminpraise.com, which features a few walk-through videos from yours truly (apologies in advance :) .  As promised, AP2 is available for individual purchase at CMS Market.

I've added a new function to clear the log and reduced the price to $5...that's almost a %50 rebate! Furthermore, a narrowed free version is now available for you to check out.

We've fixed some pretty big bugs with the JCE Admin, CQI Admin, and lots of IE bugs.  We've also added a few helpful features like the abilitiy to quickly add some custom url links to the AP Icons module(s), and also a new My Theme selection that allows different admins to use a different theme from the 6 available.

We're calling this release an RC since we won't be adding any major features from this point on, and just fixing bugs.

Reinstallation Instructions:

First backup and modifications you've made to the php, css, or image files.  Next, uninstall the adminpraise2 template in the Extensions Manager, then install the latest.  We've made changes to the bundled modules, so it's HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to run the setup process again, but be warned, this will BLOW AWAY all the existing modules in the  AdminPraise2 module positions, so backup your database if you've done lots of customizations.

In a fairly quick 10 day cycle, we've just released an updated version of AdminPraise2 Beta.  This update was mainly to address the critical errors people were having with PHP4.  We've also updated the Manager/Admin/Super Admin permissions in the menu, and all the corresponding modules so Manager and Admins won't see the stuff they're not suppose to see.

For those that have AP2 installed, simply reinstall with the new package, and run the installation process again, which will blow away all the menu items and modules, and setup the latest for you.  We've still got pleny of IE bugs to fix, we're addressing those next.

We've just released our Activity Log admin module for individual download on AdminPraise and purchase on CMSM.  I had to blog about this because I really love this handy module+plugin combo.  If (for some strange reason) you're not using AdminPraise2, you can also install Activity Log and use it in the default Khepri admin template or AdminPraise1.
