Question [Merged topic]The great Mootools/Javascript conflict discussion

PROBLEM SOLVED
I reuploaded Mootool upgrade plugin and /media/...js files and everything working fine (for) now.


Thank you all.

I have problem with Mootools 1.2, some of my modules do not work properly with mootools v1.2 in other hand when i disable the "System - Mootools Upgrade" Kunena does not work well, so I was wondering if someone would help.

Is there any way to run mootools v1.2 just for kunena I mean run a specific plugin for particular component not for whole website.

Your prompt answer is highly appreciated.

Let us be extremely clear on this matter: The Mootools Upgrade plugin is a Joomla plugin. The Mootools Upgrade plugin is not a Kunena plugin. Any Joomla plugin that is enabled is enabled for the whole website.

The question is not about whether the Mootools 1.2 plugin is required for Kunena. The question is really about whether the Mootools Upgrade plugin is required for Kunena.

Therefore the answer to the question - Is there any way to run Mootools just for Kunena? - is no.

Alright, I know kunena 1.6 needs mootools 1.2 otherwise kunena boardcode and some other functionality wont work properly, My problem is when i enable the plugins I mean mootools v1.2 then some other parts or my website which are not compatible with mootools version 1.2 do not work correctly.

So While i was looking to any update for modules I figured out there are no updated version or compatible version. Now I'm looking forward for a solution, is it possible to dedicate the mootools v1.2 just for com_kunena or not? it this situation whole website use old mootools and kunena use v.1.2

I know plugins work on whole website, but i do not know how should fix the issue!

Please do not tell me go and update your modules and component since there are no update for them.

Yes, that's unfortunate, isn't it? There's not much we can do about that. Since Joomla 1.5.19 that's just the way things are. Kunena is moving forward, keeping pace with Joomla; it's other software developers that aren't.

No, it's not, I'm sorry to say.

No, I'm not going to tell you to do that. It's your choice. In the final analysis, if those other extensions are more important to you than Kunena then K 1.6 is not the right choice for you. K 1.5 may be a better option for you.

We think that K 1.6 is a strategically wise choice but we also understand that it may not be a short-term tactical solution for everyone.

That's weird cuz I've just installed moootools plugin v1.2 (from that post www.kunena.com/forum/133-k-15-common-que...lightbox-image#46229 ) and all problems with missing boardcode buttons are gone.
First I tried to install the most basic Joomla theme to avoid any conflict with included js or mootools library... with no success.
Then I though, maybe do something simple and install previous version and I wasn't wrong - it works.

And both plugins are enabled at the same time.
