Where did the Mambots go?
Mambots have been renamed as Plugins.
Mambots were introduced in Mambo and offered possibilities to add plug-in logic to your site mainly for the purpose of manipulating content. In Joomla! 1.5, Plugins will now have much broader capabilities than Mambots. Plugins are able to extend functionality at the framework layer as well.
Where did the Installers go?
The improved Installer can be found under the Extensions Menu. With versions prior to Joomla! 1.5, you need to select a specific Extension type when you wanted to install it and use the Installer associated with it. However with Joomla! 1.5, you just select the Extension you want to upload and click on install. The Installer will do all the hard work for you.
Where is the Static Content Item?
In Joomla! versions prior to 1.5, there were separate processes for creating Static Content Items and normal Content Items. The processes have now been combined, and while both content types are still around, they are re-named as Articles for Content Items, and Uncategorized Articles for Static Content Items.
If you want to create a static item and create a new article in the same way as standard content, rather than relating this to a particular Section and Category, just select Uncategorized as the option in the Section and Category drop down lists.
Only one edit window! How do I create "Read more..."?
This is now implemented by inserting a Read more... tag (the button is located below the editor area). A dotted line should appear in the edited text showing the split location for the Read more.... A new Plugin takes care of the rest.
It is worth mentioning that this does not have a negative effect on migrated data from older sites. The new implementation is fully backward compatible.
What happened to the locale setting?
This is now defined in the Language [lang].xml file in the Language metadata settings. If you are having locale problems such as dates not appearing in your language, you might want to check and possibly edit the entries in the locale tag. Note that multiple locale strings can be set and the host will usually accept the first one recognized.
