What version of Joomla and Kunena are you using, please?

Does the discussion Can't create catagories (sic) help in any way?

Thanks! the older version seems to work nicely

Hi,
after downgrading to 1.0.9, it worked, ya. And 2 of the posts made while 1.5 was installed still existed. IS there a way to purge those? If I click on them, they yield errors and don't work anyway. I realise I could delete the tables in DB but.. It's not my site, it's my friends, and I don't know if he's got phpmyadmin installed or what.. and can't really access the server directly.

"Downgrading" is a difficult-to-answer situation for me because I haven't seen an official guide to how to downgrade Kunena 1.5.0a to K 1.0.9.

This is just my opinion but, from what I've read in these forums, it appears that, in order to perform a clean, working Kunena 1.0.9 installation after having gone down the K 1.5.0a path, you not only need to uninstall K 1.5.0a you also need to DROP all SQL tables that begin with fb_ ... and (obviously) then install K 1.0.9.

I have suggested that someone (from the developer team) posts an official "how to undo K 1.5.0a" guide. Until that guide appears, there's nothing that I can suggest. I have no personal experience of K 1.5.0a - I wouldn't know what to do with it, I'm not sufficiently qualified nor do I have enough hours in the day to be an alpha software tester - because I'm just an "ordinary user" like you.

Did you try, to prune them with the Kunena Backend feature: prune Database..... delete datas older than.. .. ?

No, for downgrading (or upgrading) you never have to drop your database too. If you want a fresh restart without any old datas, then of course, you have to delete the tables, but this is something, what you must do in every other installations / softwares too.

You can down- or upgrade withouth thinking about database (normally, expect of course, that you ALWAYS should make a backup before any changing).. The only difference when you downgrade: In Backend is still the notice, that you have 1.5.0 installed... but all of the other files were changed correctly.
