Carter Lake template in Mambo

Hi all,

Just updating my web site after a little strife with a hacker, and thought that it would be great to incorporate some of the Carter Lake stuff. The link below should take you to my new “Trends” page. It works in really well with the Mambo template I am using. Thanks to all those who have put in the time on these templates, and I hope this use of them is acceptable.

Please ignore the humidity reading - the sensor (number 2!) is kaput and a new one is on the way from Eric at HB.

That does look good :slight_smile:

Nice work!

Hi

Similar to mine: http://www.huttweather.co.nz/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=30 (apologies for the shameless promotion)

But yours does look good, and fits in well with the theme on the site!

Did you figure out how the cretin did it? There are some very good security posts on the Joomla forum, which may help - particularly the FAQ, and the posting about .htaccess files.

There is also a list of mambo / joomla components showing which are security risks, and should be avoided if possible:

I had one site hacked three times within a week, until I finally got sick of them and reinstalled everything from scratch - plus a heap of security related changes. My advice - make sure you have a backup before you go off to bed tonight!

Cheers and best of luck!
