Joomla + Memtro

Which articles changed on the website this week?

Joomla connects Memtro to your website's content. It reads articles by category, state, tag, author, language or last change, and an article's full text. It also reads categories with article counts, tags and the site's front-end menu items. An hourly sync brings recent content into memory. When asked and granted, it can create articles, edit their title, text, category or description, publish, unpublish, archive, trash or feature them, and delete a trashed article. The site needs two Joomla API token plugins enabled, and the token's user needs the API login permission.

In Memtro

What you can do with Joomla in Memtro

Ask in plain English from chat, your editor, a scheduled job or your own agent. The model picks the right Joomla tool, reads what it needs, and answers with the source cited.

What it does

  1. 01Articles by category, state, tag, author, language, words or last change, with byline, hits and opening text.
  2. 02One article in full, with alias, tags, publish window, meta description and its text.
  3. 03Categories with article counts by state, tags, and the site's front-end menu items.
  4. 04When asked and granted, creates an article as the token's user. A published one goes live on the public site at once.
  5. 05When asked and granted, edits an article's title, text, category or description, and Joomla keeps the previous version in its history.
  6. 06When asked and granted, publishes, unpublishes, archives, trashes or features an article, and permanently deletes one already in the trash.

Acts when asked

When you ask it to

These tools change something in Joomla. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it; a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

  1. 01Create an article
  2. 02Edit an article's title, text, category or description
  3. 03Publish, unpublish, archive, trash or feature an article
  4. 04Delete an article that is in the trash
In practice

Ask it like you would a colleague

Once Joomla is connected, these are the kinds of things people ask. Plain questions, no syntax. If the answer lives partly in another system you have connected, Memtro looks there too.

01

Weekly content review

Maya Okafor, marketing manager at Acme Ltd, asked which articles changed on the website this week. Memtro listed them with their state, category and last change. She spotted one still unpublished and asked its author about it.

02

Outdated offer taken down

Priya Sharma, content lead at Northwind, asked Memtro to unpublish an outdated offer article. With the action granted, Memtro unpublished it, taking it off the public site at once. The article stayed in Joomla for her team to edit.

Teams

Where it fits

The teams that lean on Joomla most, a question each of them asks, and what they connect beside it.

Better together

Works with

A record in Joomla is rarely the whole story. Connect the systems that hold the rest and Memtro checks them together, then remembers what it learned so the next question starts further along.

Setup

How to connect

Connect withSite URL and Joomla API token
  1. 1

    In the Joomla administrator, open Users → Manage, edit the user and copy their Joomla API token. The user needs the core.login.api permission, and both token plugins must be enabled.

  2. 2

    In Memtro, open Connections → Joomla and paste the Site URL, including any folder, and the Joomla API token.

  3. 3

    An administrator grants the actions by name to the teams that may use them. A dedicated Joomla user with only the access Memtro needs is the safer token.

  4. 4

    Ask "Which articles changed on the website this week?"

Also works from

Chat in the dashboard, the OpenAI-compatible API, scheduled jobs, and any MCP client: Claude Code, OpenCode, Cursor, Claude Desktop. The Joomla tools are the same everywhere.

FAQ

Questions

Can Memtro change anything in Joomla?+

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: create an article; edit an article's title, text, category or description; publish, unpublish, archive, trash or feature an article; delete an article that is in the trash. Every other tool reads, searches or lists. The Connections page labels the tools that act, an administrator grants each one by name to the teams that may use it, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Who can use a Joomla connection?+

A personal connection serves only your own requests. A shared connection serves the organisation: everyone, or only the teams an admin chooses. Admins can always add shared connections; other members need the permission.

Does Memtro store my Joomla data?+

Credentials are encrypted at rest. Tool results are cached briefly so agent loops do not repeat identical calls, and the facts the model extracts are saved to your organisation's memory with provenance (system, record and link) so they can be checked and superseded. An hourly sync anchors recently changed Joomla records into memory as entities.

How do I connect Joomla?+

Site URL and Joomla API token. In the Joomla administrator, open Users → Manage, edit the user and copy their Joomla API token. The user needs the core.login.api permission, and both token plugins must be enabled.
