It seems that the developpement of CKeditor 4 is slow, the only answer that i have on issues is to do it yourself

How to fix it? You can't explain to all users that you have to click on the red square and insert a new paragraph. Are there solutions?Yes exactly, for the username it was an easy fix and it's fixed in Kunena 5.2.5 developpement version and for the cursor position it's depends of goodwill of CKeditor How do I fix a quote? The text is printed directly in the quote
Attachment not found
I guess you could fix the user's name easily, but the cursor position issue depends on getting a change made to CK Editor?
Sure. Demons username is Demons Forever.If you click on the username on the quote it brings you to the message quoted, i need to find an another for the username with than one word
Rnd 1 Line Up v WCE - Page 8 - Forum (ozfooty.net)
- Improve display of quote in message and move quote in template

CKeditor is a WYSIWYG editor so you don't preview anymore, some bbcode specifics to Kunena needs to have theirs render into CKeditorThere is no Preview option anymore before you post
Can-you be more specific please ?Updating this template caused major problems with line breaks in category's and last post columns.
That's is a workaround that i had added because the content pasting into CKeditor was worse beforeAnd why when you paste it opens up another box to paste into first?
What do you mean Private Messages isn't available in Kunena? I've always had it. But my freelancer says this "We were having strange problems with the PM on the hosting.First, I tried to replace all the deprecated features on my local server and everything works fine.But an incomprehensible error appears on the hosting - as if a file with functions is not being loaded. And because of this, the entire site falls. So I had to turn off PM in Kunena. This is not a Kunena problem, this is a uddeIM problem."He has had to disable Uddle. Why has this stopped working?xillibit post=216286"]Hello,Where do-you see line breaks in categories ? Your screenshot is too small so i can't see itPrivate messages isn't available yet in Kunena, so you need to use an another component to handle thatThe spellchecker is done with your browser, but if you want to be handled by CKeditor your need to have your custom config file and remove this line : github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/commit/a6...1e4fab3c504b5157679e
You have private messages into Kunena because you have enabled plugin integration with UddeIM which is a third party component not endorsed by Kunena team. I'am fixing the issues with integration plugins into version 5.2.4 of Kunena.This latest Kunena update is just terrible as it has created so many problems for my site.
Private messages no longer works. I have always used UddleIM without any problems.
What is the issue that you have with UddeIM integration into Kunena ?
Private messages no longer works. I have always used UddleIM without any problems.
Quoting is ridiculous and complicated. When you click Quote the cursor should be automatically placed outside the quoted text on the next line, simple. It is very difficult you get the cursor on the next line on a smart phone. I have found you have to tap in the red Enter mark several times. I cannot highlight text in the quote on my smart phone, only on a desktop or ipad. I can highlight text on my smart phone when not using quote, it only gives me copy, cut and paste option.
There is no Preview option anymore before you post
Emoticons are now spaced apart.
Updating this template caused major problems with line breaks in category's and last post columns.
And why when you paste it opens up another box to paste into first?
And finally this costs me money paying someone to try to fix all these issues.

This module is a separate project from Kunena, it's present on github so you can ask to this author : github.com/svanschu/KBirthdayI think this line causes the bug:
if ($botid != 0) {
$_user = KunenaUserHelper::get($botid);
$fields = array(
'category_id' => (int)$catid,
'name' => $_user->getName(''),
'email' => null,
'subject' => $subject,
'message' => str_replace('\n', "\n", html_entity_decode($message, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8')),
'icon_id' => 0,
'tags' => null,
'mytags' => null,
'subscribe' => 0,);
It is the modules helper/forum.php line 75.
Kunena 5.2.4 will fix that kind of error, so you can just wait the 5.2.4 release
if ($botid != 0) {
$_user = KunenaUserHelper::get($botid);
$fields = array(
'category_id' => (int)$catid,
'name' => $_user->getName(''),
'email' => null,

I get this error also with SW KBirthday for Kunena module, but only at birthdays, when this module is visible:Slacker wrote: Just upgraded to Kunena 5.2.3. After that white page with Error.
Maximal error reporting gave this message:
Error: Call to undefined method KunenaUser::getName(): Call to undefined method KunenaUser::getName()
I inactivated the Kunnena latest posts module and then the frontpage was visible without Error message.

I updated the latest Blue Eagle template which fixed one problem, Edit profile and Preferences are now available.Houndy post=216266
You can fix that by removing "post={$this->id}" from line 363 in libraries/kunena/forum/message/message.php
Users have noted that it is a bug in quoting now. The post number like post=216201 is included now.rich wrote:
Should not be a problem if you install K5.2.2 over it. But nevertheless create a backup before.Ozfooty Is it possible for me to change back to Kunena 5.2.2 until the bugs are ironed out in 5.2.3? This has caused a lot of problems.
Code:$message->message = "{$ wrote:

But several other problems exist. It has put line breaks in Categories and Last post and Moderators. private messages was not available, my Freelancer got it back but not sure how. Previously spell check was available automatically, now you have to activate it each time you post with 2 clicks and it is not available in Quick Reply, previously it was.
I have moderators for only 9 categories out of over 50 but after the last club, that moderator is now moderator for every category after it. When I removed him as moderator it made the moderator above him moderator for every category below. Falcon is only selected to be moderator for West Perth.
The modules and plugins are available in new version with a fix for that : github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Addons/releases/tag/5.2.1
