Built for Modern Joomla
WaypointAds has been developed using modern Joomla development practices and is designed to work with current Joomla releases. It integrates directly with Joomla's administrator interface and follows the same conventions you already know, making it feel like a natural part of your website rather than an add-on.
Minimum Requirements
Before installing WaypointAds, we recommend that your website meets the following requirements:
- Joomla 5.x or later
- PHP version supported by your installed Joomla version
- MySQL or MariaDB version supported by your installed Joomla version
- A modern web browser such as Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari
- Administrator access to your Joomla website
Recommended Environment
For the best experience, we recommend:
The latest stable release of Joomla
The latest supported version of PHP
MariaDB where available
HTTPS enabled for your website
Regular website backups before installing or updating any extension
Keeping your Joomla installation up to date not only improves security but also ensures you have access to the latest features and performance improvements.
Server Compatibility
WaypointAds has been designed to work with standard Joomla hosting environments. No special server modules or unusual configuration changes are required beyond those recommended for Joomla itself.
If your website runs Joomla successfully, there's an excellent chance it will also run WaypointAds successfully.
Before You Install
As with any Joomla extension, we recommend creating a full backup of your website before installing or upgrading WaypointAds. While every release is thoroughly tested, maintaining current backups is simply good website management.
Looking Ahead
WaypointAds will continue to evolve alongside Joomla. As new Joomla versions are released, this documentation will be updated to reflect supported versions, new requirements, and any changes you should be aware of before upgrading.
