Question Template issues under alpha2

I just installed alpha2 under J1.5.18 and also on J1.6 beta3

I have 2 custom templates for K1.6 based on the default template. Regardless of which template i select as the default in the new template manager, most icons and css stuff is loaded from the default template.

Known issue?

same probleme on my installation. Doesn't matter what template I choose - the default template css is still used.

Also the "kunena.forum-min.css" file is used instead of the normal kunena.forum.css file. Can you tell us what's the difference?

Hi guys,

well I cant say that is issue, you just need to know how to use templates with new Template Manager. We need to do a little guide on that.

Templates you have will not work properly without some little change.

1) you need to create file template.xml and put in your template directory. You can take that file from Blue Eagle (default) template and just change the name of template inside a file.
2) you need to create a file initialize.php and put in your template directory. That file also you can take from Blue Eagle template but you should change the php code inside to open css file from your own template.

kunena.forum-min.css is the same file kunena.forum.css compressed to improve load of pages in default template. If you want to make some change in the kunena.forum.css you can remove that file (or rename) to load non compressed css file.

Regards

good to know, now it works, the only thing that bothers me (besides the missing admin menu in J1.6) is that the Kunena forum tabmenu does not appear anywhere

The Menu is an own Joomla! module with K 1.6 so look if that exist or is published und Joomla Modules

i can't find anything under Modules that has got anything to do with Kunena (it doesn't really make any sense to separate the kunena tab menu from the forum itself)

No matter what template or default forum page i use, the Kunena menu does not appear above my avatar.
