SobiPro Component

SobiPro is a powerful directory component for Joomla.
With SobiPro, you can easily create multiple directories or manage virtually any type of content.
The 12 integrated core field types, combined with the ability to install additional field types, provide everything you need to build and manage any kind of directory.
SobiPro allows you to create business directories, restaurant guides, real estate listings, member and profile directories, documentation and FAQ areas, download management systems, web link directories, news portals, showcases, and even blogs.
Almost any type of directory or content presentation for your Joomla-powered website can be created with SobiPro (most parts of this website are built with SobiPro).
SobiPro was the first directory component for Joomla to introduce category fields. With category fields, you can create more sophisticated and feature-rich category pages. All core fields are supported, and several additional installable field types are already available. Have you noticed that the page you are currently reading is itself a SobiPro category?

SobiPro Component

With a wide range of <additional SobiPro applications, you can extend your directories with many powerful features, such as review and rating systems, notifications, and much more. Various module types are available to present your directory content in different ways. Take a look at our applications for SobiPro.

Monetise your SobiPro directories. Allow your customers to submit and manage their content from the front-end. Search, filter, and display content based on Joomla! user groups.

The real strength of SobiPro lies in its extensive customisation options, allowing you to adapt your directories to your specific content requirements. You can customise all SobiPro output views through the powerful and professional SobiPro template system. SobiPro comes with a fully responsive and highly configurable default template that requires no customisation. However, if you want to stand out from your competitors, you can create your own directory template, use one of the additional SobiPro Theme Templates, or draw inspiration from the advanced template features showcased in our Technique Templates.

Attention!

Please note that SobiPro 2 uses MySQL stored procedures, which are supported by most hosting providers.
However, Akeeba Backup, and possibly other backup solutions, do not include MySQL stored procedures by default. As a result, these procedures will not be restored correctly when backing up and restoring a SobiPro 2 site. To restore SobiPro's stored procedure SPGetRelationsPath, you must update SobiPro after restoring the backup, even if you are already using the latest version.
Akeeba Backup can include MySQL stored procedures in the backup. In the Akeeba Backup component, go to 'Profile Configuration' → 'Advanced Configuration' and set 'Dump PROCEDUREs, FUNCTIONs and TRIGGERs' to 'Yes'.
To upgrade from SobiPro 1 to SobiPro 2, please read the upgrade instructions.

SobiPro versions 2.6 and later are only compatible with Joomla 4/5 and PHP 8.1+.

If you are still using Joomla 3, please download SobiPro 2.5.4.2.

Remarks: Important: Do not install this beta version on installations that were originally created with a SobiPro version earlier than 1.5.
Due to technical limitations and unsupported legacy data structures, installations originating from versions earlier than SobiPro 1.5 are not supported by this release.
This beta introduces changes to the way checkbox and radio field data is stored. Multilingual websites are particularly affected by these changes. As a result, installations originating from versions earlier than SobiPro 1.5 may be affected by legacy data structures that are incompatible with these changes.
Installing this beta version on such systems may result in unexpected behaviour, data inconsistencies, data corruption, or even data loss.
Installations that make extensive use of multilingual content, checkbox fields, or radio fields are particularly affected and require special attention.
If your installation originally started with a version earlier than SobiPro 1.5 and you still want to test this release, do so only on a development copy of your site. Feedback from such tests would be particularly valuable, as it helps us verify whether the new storage mechanism for checkbox and radio field data works correctly with older data structures. Installing this release on such systems is entirely at your own risk.
