Introduction:

The Kunena team is thrilled to announce the security release of Kunena 6.3.6, a native Joomla extension for Joomla! 4.4, 5.0 and 5.1.

We've implemented native support for Joomla 5. This means you don't have to enable the new compatibility plugin "Behaviour - Backward Compatibility " on Joomla! 5.0 for it to work with Kunena.

Kunena 6.3 has been designed to work on Joomla! 4.4 and later, the requirements are the followings :
  • Php 7.4.1 to Php 8.3.x
  • MySQL 5.7.23 to MySQL 8.3.0
  • Bootstrap 5.1

The work done in Kunena 6.3 is the following:

  • Refactor the backend views to be compatible with Joomla! 5.0 (thanks to ruud)
  • Some bugfixes and refactor of code
  • Replace Twitter by X in all places where it was used and add bluesky social network
  • Replace some deprecated usage of methods Joomla! from in the code
  • Implementation of handle of mentions in a message when using CKeditor
  • Get list of users for autocomplete in search form

Download:

Download K6.3.6 stable here: https://github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/releases/tag/6.3.6

This means that the Kunena 6.2 series is approching the end of life and will be discountinued, with the future release of K6.3 in stable there won't be new versions of K6.2 after that.

Donations

Any donations are needed for future support.

Hello,

Because you are on Joomla! 5.2, i forgot to allow the install of K6.3 on this Joomla! version

P.S. : i have updated the install package of the K6.3.6 so it can be installed on Joomla! 5.2 now

Hi there :)
When I try to update kunena 6.35 to 6.36 from "Extensions: update" I get the following message "Invalid extension update".
Any idea?
Thanks.

We have a typo on Git. Please change the tag for the URL to 6.3.6. At the moment it is .../releases/tag/6.36, so the download URL is not correct.
