Hagen Graf is a Joomla Expert from the beginning. As an IT Consultant and Training in the larger CMS world he wrote several books on Joomla, both 1.5 and 1.6. Hagen is now working on a new book: Joomla 1.7 - Beginners Guide.

Hagen will take the same approach as with the Joomla 1.6 Beginner's Guide, a true success story that shows the need of free available books in PDF and HTML format. (The PDF was downloaded more than 35.000 times since March 1, 2011.)

At the time Joomla 1.5 was released, I edited the Dutch translation of Hagen's Joomla 1.5 book, Essentie van Joomla 1.5. I am honored that he now invited us to sponsor his upcoming FREE Joomla 1.7 - Beginners Guide!

Together with a large number of leading players in the Joomlasphere (like Joomlart, Joomlablogger, Joomfish, Joomlaworks, Nooku, redComponent, Sigsiu and Yireo, to name a few) we will sponsor a chapter of this free Joomla 1.7 Beginner Guide. Next to that, we will discuss options with both Hagen and other sponsors to add additional value to this free Joomla 1.7 book by adding coupons to each chapter. Keep an eye on this blog, we will let you know when and how to get this free book as soon as it has been released.

Update

The Joomla 1.7 - Beginner's Guide is NOW avaliable for FREE here:
