What is JoomlaCode?[edit]

Joomlacode.org is the repository for the Joomla! source code as well as many open source Joomla! extensions. It requires separate registration from the the other joomla.org sites.

Where can I find information to checkout Joomla! using SVN?[edit]

See this link; http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/scmsvn/?action=AccessInfo

I registered an account on JoomlaCode.org, but I never received an activation email. What do I do?[edit]

Please ensure that the activation email is not in your spam folder. If you still can not find it, then email a JoomlaCode.org team member at http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,149788.0.html and ask him/her to email the activation link to you directly.

Why did my project get rejected?[edit]

The "Project Rejected" email should contain specific information regarding the reason(s) why, and may suggest a remedy.

Most common reasons to date:

  • The description is non-English; multi-lingual is more than acceptable.
  • The description does not provide enough information about the project purpose and outcome.
  • The project does not conform to the requirements of the JoomlaCode.org project rules.
  • Your project was not related to Joomla!
  • Your project was a "commercial" product.
  • Your project is not a "code" project.

If I have a problem or find a bug with JoomlaCode.org how can I report it?[edit]

JoomlaCode.org has setup a Support project please post your issues there, then they can be managed and tracked by the team. http://joomlacode.org/gf/project/support/tracker/

There is a feedback forum for Joomlacode:

http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/board,406.0.html.

When I created my account, I typed in the wrong UNIX Name. Can you change it for me?[edit]

Unfortunately, this is something that we can not do. The only option is to request that we delete your project, so that you can resubmit it for approval.

Why I get a "Permission Denied" message when trying to view a project?[edit]

The project was migrated and still needs to be activated by the admin. As soon as we get a request from the admin, we will assign the project to them. It is the admin's responsibility to make a project public.

My project got rejected and I was asked to re-register it. Now I cannot re-submit it, I get a message saying that the project already exists. What do I do?[edit]

Re-register your project using a different "Unix Project Name". (This is a known issue that is being worked on as we speak, apologies for the inconvenience )
