An AlterBrains plugin for the Joomla backend: publishing, sorting, filtering and paging in item lists run through AJAX requests, so the page does not reload after each click.
AJAX toggler by AlterBrains speeds up everyday work in the Joomla administrator. In the standard backend nearly every list action, such as unpublishing an article, changing the order or moving to the next page, triggers a full page reload. The plugin sends these operations as background requests and refreshes only the table. It pays off most on sites with long lists of articles, products or users.
Features
- Publish, unpublish, feature and unfeature items without reloading.
- Sort tables by column and reorder records.
- Pagination, filters and list search handled in place.
- Joomla system messages are still displayed after each action.
- AJAX mode can be switched off for selected components if a conflict appears.
- The developer states it works in modern browsers and with most third-party extensions.

- Joomla 5 and 6, current version 5.0.0, last updated in JED on 23 October 2025.
- The listing spells out what the free version covers: AJAX ordering and paging of lists plus status changes for records.
