Kunena 1.7.2 released

Thursday, 26 January 2012 21:23

Introduction

The Kunena team has now released Kunena 1.7.2 as a native Joomla extension for J! 1.5, J! 1.7 and J! 2.5. This is an important maintenance release and replacement for all previous versions of Kunena and it is recommended that all users upgrade to Kunena 1.7.2 at the earliest opportunity.

In order to achieve interoperability with all of J! 1.5, J! 1.7 and J! 2.5, several important matters in Kunena have been attended to before the next major release of Kunena 2.0 later this year. Some users of third-party templates written for older versions of Kunena will find that their templates may not work with this latest release because changes were necessary in order to fit with the new J! 2.5 CMS. In particular, most of the third-party templates written for K 1.6 in its early stages will cause problems. If in doubt, please contact the authors(s) responsible for those things to find out if updates are available. Priority support is given to issues affecting Kunena installations suing the Blue Eagle template. Other templates may cause problems; if in doubt, please contact the author of the template you are using for their support.

Note: Joomla 1.6 is not supported; J! 1.7 will not be supported after 24 February 2012.

Add-ons written for Kunena need to be separately installed. At this time previously-released add-on extensions for Kunena have not been updated. Until otherwise advised, users should use Kunena add-ons for K 1.7.2 with the version number 1.7.1. As with all other releases, K 1.7.2 is available for download on the download page.
