Hi,

Thank you for reporting. The plugin has a dependency on Kunena.

To avoid the message during installation of Kunena, we recommend disabling the plugin in the process to upgrade, or simply ignore it until the installation is completed.

We can't remove the checkup since it prevents the execution of the plugin when Kunena is no longer installed.

Best Regards

No need to remove the checkup, just to remove the (JError is deprecated) error messages. (in the code below I have commented them out)
These add no value (other then visual messages on both back-end and front-end).

file: ./plugins/system/autotweetkunena/autotweetkunena.php
Code:
// Check if Kunena API exists $api = JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_kunena/api.php'; if (!is_file($api)) { $logger = AutotweetLogger::getInstance(); $logger->log(JLog::ERROR, 'Kunena Forum not found (api)'); // JError::raiseWarning('5', 'Kunena Forum not found (api)'); return; } jimport('joomla.application.component.helper'); // Check if Kunena component is installed/enabled if (!JComponentHelper::isEnabled('com_kunena', true)) { $logger = AutotweetLogger::getInstance(); $logger->log(JLog::ERROR, 'Kunena Forum not found (component)'); // JError::raiseWarning('5', 'Kunena Forum not found (component)'); return; } // Load Kunena API require_once $api; // Do not load if Kunena version is not supported or Kunena is not installed if (!(class_exists('KunenaForum') && KunenaForum::isCompatible('3.0') && KunenaForum::installed())) { $logger = AutotweetLogger::getInstance(); $logger->log(JLog::ERROR, 'Kunena Forum not found (class)'); // JError::raiseWarning('5', 'Kunena Forum not found (class)'); return; }

Hi,
Yes, that's where the warning message that we are currently showing.
In the future, we'll replace the JError call with JFactory::getApplication()->enqueueMessage ..., but the warning message will remain since we need to alert users when the plugin is enabled and Kunena is no longer installed.

Best Regards,

Cool,
just for the sake of argument: I am the user. I have had this message already for a long time. I had no clue as to what it means and what it does / doesn't do. So I just crossed my fingers and ignored it. It turns out now that ignoring is good as nothing breaks.
That is why I say that the messages are useless :)
To make it 'worse', the message also shows on the front end. Therefor it is not only showing to me (in the back-end) but to every user who knows even less what these messages mean.

The message is also logged into the log files, I think that should be enough.
If you want to keep the visual warnings: please make them so they are actually informative. Restrict them to showing up on back-end only. Tell the user something like: "The Autotweetplugin requires Kunena to be installed and enabled. If you are updating Kunena you can ignore this message"

You could even extend you component check page: Plugin enabled but component not found indicator.

just my 2ct :)

Kunena 4.0 is not supported anymore and also your extensions are obsolete. Please reactivate not old topics. I've deleted all your posts in the other topics, your posts have nothing to do with current problems.
If you have a question, then update your page previously and create a own topic.

Hi,

As I said before, the warning message is necessary. It's just a warning shown at the moment that Kunena is not available while the extension is being updated.

The message is required since it also warns the administrator when Kunena is uninstalled and the integration plugin for Kunena is still enabled.

Hope this helps! Let us know if there is anything else we can do.

Best Regards

Joomla 3.8.2
PHP 7.1.4
Database Version 5.6.32-78.1

I am reporting this just in case...

my own support forum (also with Joocial) and didn't get this message... on this site, the plugin "System - AutotweetKunena" is disabled.
I think that the issue is in that plugin
