Joomla 1.5 help screens
download
When you login to the back-end of your Joomla website, you can find a help button on each page. Joomla provides a help button on each page. It is a link to the official Joomla documentation serverhelp.joomla.org. If you click the help button, a help screen will pop up and display topics associated to that page. We gathered all the help topics and put them in one pdf file so that users can read offline and don't need to flipping back and forth between screens. This file is created on June 25, 2010.
