Question Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class smile in C:\xampp\htdocs\acupj\components\com_kunena\template\de

The issue is naming conflict between JoomlaXTC template "Espresso" and Kunena, so changing or fixing either one will fix the problem.

It's a bad idea to use general class names, which can easily be used by other extensions. We have smile class because of backwards compatibility, so we cannot change that without breaking all external software integrating into Kunena (until 2.0 goes out, that is)..

You can contact the author of the template and ask him to rename class into XTCSmile or something..

Hi!

Just upgraded to Kunena 1.7 and getting bitten by this issue. The only other component installed is Joomfish and removing doesn't remove the issue. I also try all the J! 1.5.23 templates + JA_Purity which I'm using and problem is still here (I also tried to remove mod_latest). What should I try next?

Thanks.
Fred

Please create new topic next time.

What is your error message?

The same error as the title of this thread (which is why I added it together):

There are 3 options: Joomla template, module or plugin has the same class. So you should be able to figure out what is causing this by disabling them one by one.
