Part of the Joomla! For Dummies Cheat Sheet
As you build interactive Web sites with Joomla!, it helps to know how to navigate within Joomla! itself so that you get to spend your time designing discussion forums or shopping sites instead of finding your way through the design app. Use these tips while you design Web sites with Joomla!:
To navigate to the control panel: Choose Site→Control Panel.
To get a preview of the front end while logged into the back end: Click the Preview link in the top-right corner of any page.
To take your site offline: Choose Site→Global Configuration to open the Global Configuration page, and select the Yes radio button in the Site Offline section.
To put your site back online: Choose Site→Global Configuration to open the Global Configuration page, and select the No radio button in the Site Offline section.
To switch templates: Choose Extensions→Template Manager to open Template Manager; select the radio button for the template you want to use; and click the Default button.
To direct Joomla to use search-engine-friendly URLs: Choose Site→Global Configuration to open the Global Configuration page, and select the Yes radio button in the Search Engine Friendly URLs section.
