2009 was quiet simply a roller coaster ride for Fabrik. We saw Fabrik enjoying a fabulous growth in visitor numbers, each month we saw a 50 - 300% increase compared to the previous years.
A total of 4 release candidates for 2.0 saw the light of day, we redesigned the web site, migrating from Joomla 1.0 to 15.
The community expanded and matured, creating and improving upon 7 language translations. We had code and plug-ins provided by people all over the world, and saw you using Fabrik to do pretty much anything and everything, from tracking pirate attacks on the open seas to calculating company finacial viablity.

As part of the last fabrikar.com site redesign we created an article slider widget for our Joomla homepage. In this blog post I'm going to go over how I created this.
My aim was to use Joomla's front page layout as the basis for the content and use Joomla's template override features to alter the mark up and add javascript to produce the slider features.
