Today, jomDefender 1.2 is released with support for Joomla 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7.

The following features have been added:

File integrity checks

When enabled this function will go through all of the files in your Joomla installation. It will check size, ownership, permissions, last modified time and file checksum, all this information is stored in the database. Each time the cronjob is ran it will check the files for any differences. If any file is different than previously checked, an email will go out with information to the administrator. This information can be used to alert of any hacked files or new files in the system. Read the rest of this entry »

jQuery click event fires twice

Wednesday, July 20th, 2011 by Rafael Corral

Today I had an issue with jQuery where a listener for a ‘click’ event was being triggered twice.
With the following code, I would get two logs in the console:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
	jQuery('#button').click(function(){
		console.log(1);
		return false;
	});
});

I was even trying the jQuery(function() { }); method, but I would still get the same results.

After some debugging, I figured out that if I moved that javascript to be inside the <head></head> tag instead of the <body></body> tag which is where I originally had it, that would fix the problem.

Hope it helps,

jomCDN 1.1.0 Released!

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010 by Rafael Corral

It’s been almost 2 months since our first release of jomCDN, and we have received great feedback from the community. I am proud to say that no bugs have been found since the release! We have received a lot of requests to support more file types to send to the CDN. With our new release, the plugin will automatically send the following file extensions to the CDN:

Documents: .pdf, .doc, .docx, .log, .rtf, .txt, .wks, .xls, .xlsx.
Data: .csv, .dat, .key, .pps, .ppt, .pptx, .xml.
Music:  .aif, .aac, .iff, .mid, .m3u, .midi, .mpa, .mp3, .ra, .wav, .wma.
Video:  .3g2, .3gp, .asf, .asx, .avi, .flv, .mov, .mp4, .mpg, .rm, .swf, .wmv.
Compressed: .7z, .deb, .gz, .pkg, .rar, .sit, .sitx, .tar.gz, .zip, .zipx.

In addition to all of these new extensions, we have added a field so that you can add any extensions that we did not add by default. This way you have complete control!

So… what’s next? We plan to add support for other CDN service providers, and we also have a few additional features on the way!

Hope you enjoy this update!

jomCDN version 1.0.1 release – conflict issue fixed

Monday, November 8th, 2010 by Rafael Corral

This is a release to fix one issue that some users have been experiencing – a conflict between jomCDN and JomSocial. They both had the same class name for Amazon S3, therefore causing a fatal error. This is fixed now, and you can download the new plugin. To upgrade simply install the new version over the previous one, and your configuration will not be deleted.

We appreciate all the great support we have received for this extension. We are excited to continue improving it by adding multiple domain support, more CDN services, and support for more file types.

Thank you all!
