Kunena 6.3.0 released
The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.3.0 [K 6.3.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x/5.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.3

The Kunena menu is not dependent on, and has not effect on, Javascript.joey2509 wrote: I disabled the menu for the forum page and also switch templates and the problem still exists. I also pull out that line of code and still no good...I did see that someone posted about "using a poll module to fix the problem but didnt really understand, anybody have some incite on that or anything
It's not necessarily that changing the site template will overcome these problems, it's that another site template (or another component, or another module, or another plugin, or another language) has installed and activated a Javascript conflict that you have in your site. It's not that another Joomla extension per se is causing a Javascript conflict. We have not actually said that. The cause of this problem (as we have consistently stated) is that another Joomla extension that you're using is dependent on a Javascript function or library that is incompatible with Mootools 1.2.4.
The task, therefore, is to isolate this "other" Joomla extension as the cause and to remove it or have Mootools 1.2.4 override the Javascript requirements for the website. This may mean that the other Joomla extension will not work under those conditions.
When you have Mootools 1.2.4 operating without being clobbered by something else, then Kunena 1.6 will work.

I notice that I am in legacy mode, when I try to disable it my site basically crashes - is that normal?
This stuff is new to me but I am trying guys
Therefore, if your site crashes when you disable the System-Legacy plugin, this means that you are using software that was designed for Joomla 1.0 which probably indicates that the software was designed over two-and-a-half years ago; it's quite possible that this older software is using something that depends on some antiquated Javascript library that is clobbering Mootools 1.2.4. This is not always the case.
However, it is a good policy (and I think it makes good sense) deal with these legacy issues now. This is the message I have written on several hundred occasions. People are still (obviously) not getting the message. Last of all, K 1.6 has not been tested under "legacy mode" conditions.
95% of the problems involving Mootools 1.2.4 and Kunena 1.6 are caused by Javascript written by developers who have (for their own reasons) decided to remain outside the Joomla mainstream. The other 5% results come from other causes.
I will say again, the task is to isolate these other Joomla extensions as the cause and remove them or change the behaviour in a way that Mootools 1.2.4 has the overriding priority in handling the Javascript requirements of the website. This may mean that other Joomla extensions will not work under such conditions.
Whether or not these other extensions are more important to you than Kunena is a matter of personal choice. If it's more important to you to have a fully-functioning, reliable, web-based forum component (like Kunena), that has a future, that is driven by an active community, and that will grow to meet your needs, then the web-based forum component should be your top priority and everything else is secondary. If other things are more important to you, then no version of Kunena may be suitable for you.
We're ready to help people who want to make Kunena work on their sites if they are prepared to work with us.

Question: have you fixed your legacy mode problems? Yes or no. There would not seem to be much point pursuing further detection until we resolve this issue. Do you know how to find out which components, modules, plugins, languages and/or templates were written for J! 1.0?

Still confusing that 1.6 was working fine for weeks in legacy mode
Yes, yes, yes ... we know that. K 1.6 may have been working - for you in legacy mode - but it was not working "fine" (as you put it) for you, otherwise there would have been no need to ask these questions, would there? K 1.6 may work and should work with J! 1.5 in legacy mode but we have not tested K 1.6 with J! 1.5 in legacy mode. There is no need for the project to test K 1.6 with J! 1.5 in legacy mode because J! 1.0 is not supported by Joomla.org. The project's focus is on the currently supported versions of Joomla.joey2509 wrote: The message I get when I turn the site of legacy is
