Overview of this book

<p>Mambo is a PHP-based Open Source CMS. Mambo is both easy to use at the entry level for creating basic websites, while having the power and flexibility to support complex web applications. <br /> <br /> Mambo implements the core requirements of a full featured CMS. It has a powerful and extensible templating system with the ability to upload and manage many different data types. User access control, content approval, rich administrative control, content display scheduling are all built-in. New features and extensions are constantly added to the core system, with many more being available and supported by the community.<br /> <br /> Most of the Mambo development team now works on a fork of Mambo known as Joomla. Mastering Mambo is fully compatible with Joomla's 1.0 release.</p>

Chapter 8. Even More Extensions

The quantity of Mambo components, Mambots, and modules that are at http://www.mamboforge.net/, by itself, is unmanageable. You have already familiarized yourself in detail with the most important components in the last few chapters. But the most important ones, naturally, are only a small sampling. In this chapter we will muster a few more helpful extensions. Because of space constraints, the descriptions will not be very comprehensive, but you will get a few interesting suggestions to help you in your own search for the best extensions.
