A new version of our WebP integration for Joomla! is now available - version 0.0.3 adds a new JavaScript detection, which makes it possible to cache pages across different browsers (that do or do not support WebP images).

We have just released SimpleLists 1.6.0.4c which contains multiple fixes for problems that came to light last weeks: One of the major issues was that SimpleLists 1.6 caused a major cleanup of code, but this broke also some minor things when running SimpleLists on a Windows platform. This is all fixed now, among many other fixes.

We just released new MageBridge template-patches for RocketTheme Ionosphere, RocketTheme Clarion and YOOtheme Inspire. With these patches, it becomes very easy to setup a Magento/Joomla! e-commerce site using MageBridge - saving you the investment of getting all the boring CSS-alignments right.

We just updated our Joomla! extension (version 0.0.2) and Magento extension (version 0.2.3) for WebP to add fix for PNG-transparency. While Google WebP offers an exciting way to decrease the required bandwidth of your site, its support for PNGs is somewhat limited: It does not support transparent PNGs, or PNGs with an alpha layer.
