The Kunena team is thrilled to announce the ninth maintenance release of Kunena 6.4, a native Joomla extension for Joomla! 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 6.0. It needs the compatbility plugin to be enabled to be installed on Joomla! 6.0.x, this release (K6.4.9) is offered for people already on Joomla! 6.0 to be able to update to K7.0.x. For people on K6.3.x and K6.4.x it will proposed by Joomla! updater to update to K6.4.9 then in a month or two, Joomla! updater will propose to K6.4.x users to update to K7.0.x.

We are changed translation platform, we are now moved to crowdin for this release and the next releases : crowdin kunena. The translators are still needed to update the languages on crowdin because some aren't enough translated.

The support for Joomla! 6.0 has been added in this release.

Kunena 6.4 has been designed to work on Joomla! 5.0 and later, the requirements are the followings :

• Php 8.1.0 to Php 8.4.x
• MySQL 8.0.13 to MySQL 9.2.0
• Bootstrap 5.1

The work done in Kunena 6.4 is the following:

• Removing CMSObject extends to some Kunena classes to comply with removed things planned for Joomla! 6.0 (thanks to svanschu)
• Allow to be used on php 8.4 if you are on Joomla! 5.2.x, it will give some deprecated errors messages
• Replace some deprecated usage of methods Joomla! of getError(), getDBO() and Toolbar::getInstance()
• Allow avif and webp to be added in attachment
