All extensions unpublished from JED? Screwed
May 24, 2012
When we thought our day could not get worse - after unpublishing MageBridge based on wrong reasons - it just got worse: All our Yireo extensions got unpublished. It seems somebody in the JED has the pick on Yireo, or simply does not under the workings of open source. Why got these extensions unpublished?
MageBridge unpublished from JED?
May 23, 2012
Our MageBridge extension has just been unpublished from the JED (Joomla! Extensions Directory). Why? Well, the reason is Uses encryption and restricts usage by license key. Obviously, that's reason enough to unpublish any extension. But does this apply to MageBridge? No, and we've had this argument already 2 times before.

April 29, 2012
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). Plus it adds an extra check for file modification times, so that WebP files are automatically updated once the original JPEGs or PNGs are modified.
SimpleLists 1.6.0.4c released
April 27, 2012
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.
Yireo site almost hacked
April 19, 2012
Last Wednesday we noticed extra activity on the Yireo site, and we went throught the logs quickly - only to find that various rootshells were added in a tucked-away folder in our Joomla! site. Our site was hacked. Luckily we could simply remove the hack-files and the exploit, and be done with it.
Yireo helps you develop with Google Chrome
April 19, 2012
While most webdevelopers focus on their webapplications to optimize things (speed, usability, etcetera), optimizing things specifically in or for the browser is often overlooked. What about the new possibilities of WebP? Or creating browser-extensions to aid development? Here is what we've been working on.

April 10, 2012
Magento CE 1.7.0.0 is around the corner and we finished off testing it with MageBridge. It simply works, but Magento 1.7 also brings new features - so another question is: How to integrate those features into MageBridge as well?
