Are you having problem on developing website on Yahoo Web Hosting? I did! I hope this would be my last problem and work with this so not friendly web hosting with Joomla. The problem is when i always come with error message when i'm installing any component, plugin, or module. The error message comes :

JFolder::create: Could not create directory

Me almost deadly stuck here. The fact is all i need to do is easy. When you face this kind of error, just check to your "system info" that is at top menu of Joomla admin from "help". Try to see the "Directory Permissions" and make sure that all the things is "writeable". And exactly on my case, the log and temp directory of mine is unwriteable. I just need to find the right path to there. In this case i'm almost stuck coz i'm facing the problem of using Yahoo Web Hosting. At last i find the hack that maybe i can share with you if you have the same problem with me. All you have to do is change the path to just "/logs" and "/tmp". Crap! I wish i knew it...

It's really iritating when you have client that use a web hosting which is not using usual feature for managing files. This time i get almost deadly stuck with Yahoo Web Hosting Service that is supported by Yahoo Small Business. For me, i already get used to cpanel. And i think most professional web hosting would use that. It's easy to use, manage, and installing third party service for developing your site. For me cpanel help me a lot in helping me develop Joomla sites. But it's not t he way that Yahoo Web Hosting did on it's back end. You don't even see any fantastico there, dream of it! But Thank God, even it's not have many features near to cpanel, it still supporting database with mysql and php. And the good thing is you can still see phpmyadmin here. Which is help you a lot in case of database on Joomla.

There is some little problem when i upgrading my old Joomla version to the new patch of Joomla 1.5.14. The problem is after i upgrade my Joomla version, everytime i use the default text editor of Joomla, and put left or right alignment to an image, it always pulling the text under the image. I can't make a left or right alignment on the image. So if you had the same problem like me, you can solve this bug by downloading a php code of tinymce editor. After downloading that zip file, extract it and rewrite the file on your host server or localhost. So then the problem is solved.

Search term must be a minimum of 3 characters and a maximum of 20 characters. What if you want to search only 2 characters thing? Or you want to limit your search at minimum using at least 10 characters?

Just go to /administrator/components/com_search/helpers/search.php

See line 69

        if ( $searchword && JString::strlen( $searchword ) < 3 ) {
            $searchword     = '';
            $restriction     = true;
        }

Change that 3 to whatever number you like.
