The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.0.1 [K 7.0.1] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.0.x/5.1.x/5.2.x/5.3.x/5.4.x/6.0.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.0

Important note: Go to the Kunena Dashboard after an upgrade so that the Kunena database tables are also updated. This is particularly necessary for major version jumps so that the table changes are adapted.

Topics must relate to a currently supported version of Kunena. If you are unsure what is the current supported version of Kunena, please go to the download page.

If you are having problems then, for your own benefit, it would save us all a lot of time if you would kindly post your configuration report when you ask for help from this forum. If you do not post your configuration report we will not ask you for it but you will probably not get your problem solved, either.

Hi,
the errors you are getting are actually not errors but notices: this means that Kunena should work correct.
Notices should only be displayed while a site is in development, not in production.
You can (read: must! as exposing these messages is actually providing valuable information for hackers) turn these notices off in Joomla Global Config:
in Joomla back-end > System > Section 'Setup' > Global Configuration > tab 'Server' > set 'Error Reporting' to 'None'

Joomla will now not display these notices again.

New version of Kunena or following the instruction of Rich will resolve the root cause of the notices.

Hope this helps.

Thank you for that advice. I had entirely missed/forgotten about the error reporting option and that will help me make the site usable again. Following Rich's advice has made the error messages much less prominent but I would still like to learn how to get rid of the last remaining errors. There seem to be quite a few reports of problems involving the social media system and this error.

I must also thank you for one of the most polite and well written responses I have ever received on a support forum. :)

Good to hear it helped. And thanks for the compliment 😀
Regarding remaining messages: difficulty here is that what is okay with php version x will get obsolete with future php versions. When that is decided (to make it obsolete) php will start showing notices so developers are notified: "fix this as in future version it will not work anymore"

When found, these notices are resolved in an updated version (in this case of Kunena).
So always (if possible) update to latest version, and when you run into one of them report them here on the forum so a developer can fix it.

Same goes basically for other extensions / Joomla core as well
