We’ve made a small reasearch and find out that it is very hard to find free VirtueMart themes nowadays. Actually it’s quite weird because this is a free Joomla extension and we wonder why there are no free templates for VirtueMart. Anyway we’ve got something for you and we hope that you’ll be glad to see this. This is a free Virtuemart template for a Mobile shop produced by TemplateMonster.com. This design has great layout, stunning details and you can easily apply this theme to your Joomla powered webstore.

Google Ajax Library – Joomla extension

A great way to save bandwidth is to take advantage of Google’s AJAX Libraries API to serve your favorite open-source JavaScript libraries.

For a Joomla user, Joomla import mootools.js automatically. Mootools.js is more than 70KB, If we host the mootools.js in Google, then how much bandwidth it will save?

For example, it will replace
“/media/system/js/mootools.js”
with
“http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/mootools/1.11/mootools-yui-compressed.js”

or
“http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/mootools/1.21/mootools-yui-compressed.js”

It depends the version you have set. The mootools version must host on Google’s Ajax libraries.

The Joomla Plugin Google Ajax Library will automatically replace your local ajax libraries with Google’s AJAX libraries.

Support Ajax libraries:

1. Mootools
2. Prototype
3. JQuery
4. YUI
5. SWFObject

Benefits of the using Joomla Plugin: GoogleAjaxLib
