The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.2.6 [K 6.2.6] which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.1 / K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.2
Topics contains old discussions (generally more than one year ago or based on circumstances that subsequently changed) or topics resolved in other ways. Topics moved into this category are closed from further discussion.
Have read in various places about Bootstrap and Joomla 3.0.
Being a novice with an eye for all the latest goodies I'm wondering what impact this will have on Kunena and what we may expect from its implementation... generally...
First we will implement Mirage that's not bootstrap, but follows it very closely on buttons and other elements (just class names differ). Mirage still has its own markup mostly because we want it to work without Bootstrap. But being Bootstrap ready, it will be very easy to convert it to a real Bootstrap template, when we want to take that step.
Do you have any links to information on Mirage, I'm curious to know about more about a scalable server setup, MySQL (gah!) requirements etc so that I have some pointers as to how to plan for future development....
Mirage doesn't affect to performance except that it allows us to use better caching.
Following has nothing to do with topic, but:
Kunena 2.0 needs less resources than Kunena 1.7, so if the existing server can run Kunena 1.7, you can safely assume that Kunena 2.0 will run faster even if your forum has much more messages and more traffic. We haven't done any real server benchmarks, but installing Kunena 2.0 has always lowered the load, sometimes even considerably.
System requirements can be found from our release notes and software requirements from the package.
