Everyone: who needs to look after a Joomla! site.



Joomla! 
≥ 3.0

<translate> The Administrator application, also known as the Backend, Admin Panel or Control Panel, is the interface where administrators and other site officials with appropriate privileges can manipulate the look of a Joomla-powered website. There are many tasks which can be done with the administrator interface. You can set up how your website looks with the Template Manager or completely change a website's look by changing the template to another template. You can also add new extensions such as components, languages, modules and plugins. Many of these are found on the Joomla! Extension Directory (JED).</translate>
