I have a question regarding Joomla extensions, there are three main types: components, modules and plugins. Is there a way to install all three extensions as one in a single installation process ? Otherwise if we have a large extension that is composed of smaller segments (e.g. component, module and plugin) then we have to repeat installation process three times, once for every extension. That's quite complex and I would like to know, if there's possibility to install them all at once. Thanks !
Yes, this is possible using a package (introduced to Joomla 2.5). Within this package, you can install as many components, modules and plugins as you wish. For more information on packages, have a read of the following from the Joomla Documentation site:
