Joomla 2.5 Update Notifications.

I noticed that some of our Joomla sites would show an Joomla Core update notification while other sites didn’t. Admin tools would show if there was an update but a recent update of admin tools seems to have dropped this feature.

If you go to the Joomla control panel and don’t see the Joomla core update icon, the fix is simple:

  1. Log into your back end
  2. Go to EXTENSION MANAGER – PLUGIN MANAGER
  3. Set the Quick Icon – Joomla! Update Notification to enabled. You might also want to set Quick Icon – Joomla! Extensions Updates Notification to enabled also.
There you have it.. An easy one click update.. BE SURE TO ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR SITE PRIOR TO  ***ANY*** Updates.
