While attending WordCamp Sydney, I attended some beginner sessions on WordPress. I was surprised to see that some things that can be simply done in Joomla actually require coding to achieve these minor customisations in WordPress. In one particular example, the speaker demonstrated how to add the web developers contact details into a widget in the backend of WordPress. Here is how you can achieve the same thing in Joomla.

Extensions->module manager

Change the filter to Adminstrator

Press New button

Custom HTML

Select “Control Panel” as module position, then enter the details you want to display in the title and editor fields.

That’s it, now your company details are shown, without having to do any coding.
