• Sucuri's Hacked Website Report 2017

  The most comprehensive analysis of trends in the website security finally is out. There are couple of interesting fact worth highlighting.

  Most important is something we expected: Joomla is emerging as the most secure CMS.

• The directory /components/libraries/cmslib/cache/ is filling up and is eating my server space!

  Today one of my clients asked me to find out why he is running out of available disk space, despite the fact that has an average Joomla 1.5 site with nothing extraordinary installed, and a generous 2 Gigs server space. In couple of minutes I found the first clue, the /components/libraries/cmslib/cache/ directory has a whopping 700 Megs plus worth of content consisting by outdated cache files. From there finding the culprit was easy - it's the Jom Comment component which is filling up the server space with unneeded cache files. The fix was promised sometime back in 2009, but seemingly was never implemented - at least not in the Joomla 1.5 versions.

• Why my Joomla site is this slow?

  Joomla generally is running at an acceptable speed -  users aren't seeing differences between an average Joomla site and another CMS'es. But what if they do? What can cause the (sometime unbearable) slowness of some Joomla sites?

• XML Parsing Error at. Error

  After moving a site to a new server I found this error in the backend - at least one error per page, but casually even more.
