Joomla 1.5 and 1.6 versions
| Version | Date | Changes |
| 2.02 | 14 April 2011 | First hybrid Joomla 1.5 and 1.6 native version. This version installs and runs equally well in both 1.5 and 1.6. Fix for toolbar buttons not working on Joomla 1.6.2 The "Extra parameters" have been moved to the end of the Google Charts URL. This allow you to override parameters that are generated by Plotalot, like CHCO (since Google uses the last occurrence). Split "single items" from the table edit screen to its own edit screen for clarity. Table titles and table headings now have their own styles |
