如何访问Joomla上的文件？

Question

I am in a critical condition. I was paying a developer in India who left the project but now I need to access the php pages.

I have explored the joomla site using the admin login but i can't find how he is displaying the html/php pages.

Please help!

Answer 1

I assume you're looking for the front-end template for the website.

Using FTP or whatever control panel go to the Joomla folder, look for a folder called templates - it should be one of the folders in there.

To check what the name of the current template is, go to the admin panel and look in the template menu.

If your developer has also made any custom components, the front-end part would be somewhere in the components folder, and the backend bit would be in administrator->components .

You need to read some Joomla tutorials. There are many places that can be used to "display the html/php".

First you have the template files that determine how the site looks and what module positions are available to be used. Generally there is one template in use but there can be multiples.

Next you will have components where the content is entered. At a minimum it is likely that you are using the com_content (articles/categories) and it is very likely there are others being used.

You will also have various modules that will display content in areas outside of the main content area. This will generally include menus, login forms, and other similar content.

Last, plugins can also have an effect on the content. In some cases plugins inject content and in others they replace placeholders with content.

There are a lot of pieces to the puzzle that all come together to display the resulting web page, it's not just a simple question of accessing some files.
