Update Source[edit]

Configure where Joomla! gets its update information from

  • Update Channel: (Default/Joomla Next/Testing/Custom URL) This allows you to choose the update source for Joomla.
    • Default: is the recommended setting to stay on the latest release. This ensures that you still receive all released updates.
    • Joomla Next: switch from one major release to next major release (Joomla 3.x to Joomla 4).
    • Testing: is used for testing Joomla! releases prior to their release as 'Stable'. With this setting nightly builds will be shown until a Beta or RC (Release Candidate) is available. It is recommended not to use on Production sites. Only use this setting on test sites.
    • Custom URL: This setting allows a custom update server to be used. It is recommended not to use on Production sites. Only use this setting on test sites.
  • Custom URL: This field is used to point to a custom XML update source URL, used only when the 'Update Server' option is set to 'Custom URL'.
