When it comes to content management, many people think that term only refers to articles accessed through some kind of menu structure. However, both core and addon modules in Joomla offer powerful options for promoting those articles and displaying other information (which is also content even though it may not be in a Joomla Article) for visitors to see. In this video we will look at a number of different ways to use modules for promoting content on your website.

This topic came about as a result of someone asking

(in the Joomla Facebook Group ► https://www.facebook.com/groups/jooml...) for a good way to organize and display some content on their site. If you aren't already a member of that group, we highly recommend joining!
