PDA-plugin for Joomla! 1.5
This project and information is deprecated. Please visit Mobile Joomla! project at mobilejoomla.com for the latest and best way of mobilize Joomla! web sites. Thank you very much for your support.
In spite of the fact that the final version of Joomla! 1.5 has not released yet, many already now try to create sites on its basis. Therefore, I often asked in comments to posts and by e-mail for release the version of a PDA-plugin for Joomla! 1.5.
So, the first version of a pda-plugin for Joomla! 1.5 is released. The set of functions is practically identical to functions of a pda-mambot 2.1.2 (but not all functions have passed a full set of tests), but they now are broken into two parts: the part of functions is tuned in options of a pda-plugin, and the part is tuned in options of a pda-template.
As before, first you need to install a pda-template, and then a pda-plugin. After necessary changes to options of a pda-template and a pda-plugin will be made, it is simply enough to activate pda-plugin.
One of difficulties with which you can confront, consists in the list of positions for modules has no positions added in options of a pda-template. In this case simply enter the name of a position from the keyboard, instead of choose it from the list.
If there will be any questions on installation and use of a pda-plugin, ask them in comments or by e-mail. Also, do not forget to make the donation on WebMoney purses Z152066003646, E721221419702, or R168896637514, if you are interested in the further development of this project.

Greetings,
I love your initiative in developing this plugin and template. I am having issues getting the menu to appear on the mobile version of my site as well. I even attempted creating a new menu and module and did not have any success with it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks again!

I read in various posts about thoughts for image resizing in PDA-versions of content items. As the images used within content items in our websites are pretty wide, do you plan add an image-resize option in the near future?

I installed the PDA version and now my site has the following error :
Direct Access to this location is not allowed.
I can not get to the front end nor the back end now.
Please help

Paul Greco, you installed PDA-mambot (for J!1.0 only) instead of PDA-plugin (for J!1.5 only). To solve the problem just delete (using FTP) all the text from /plugins/system/pdabot.php and uninstall plugin in backend by usual way.

Hi thanks for a great plug-in. Worked fine on other sites, but my first on 1.5.8 and only some of parameters show: Mambot settings and Post processing, none of the others. Tried the zip and tar.gz. Regards

I installed and then decided to try and uninstall the pda plugin, but now I cant get my original template to come up, even thought it is still the default. I can only I get the default Joomla template. What do I need to do to recover my desired template?
Thanks,

Good morning,
Its a new day and the panic of last night is diminished. This is the issue now in a nut shell. After installing and then uninstalling pda plugin and pda template, none of my other templates will work. I have even tried installing another template, and it does not work. I only get the default Joomla (blue) template. What editting changes do I need to make where so that the system will find the other templates and I can use them?
Thanks,
Worth

Worth:
Go into your database and look for the "jos_templates_menu" table. In this table you will see the PDA template, just remove it and your done!
