Hello,
I have just made a fresh install of Joomla 5.1.2 and Kunena 6.3.3 and have an error message showing on the Joomla Extensions Update page that says "Update: Could not open update site #49 "Kunena 6.3 Update Site", URL: update.kunena.org/6-3/list.xml ". Please see screenshot below.
How can I fix this problem?
Thank you,
Ari

Also, it looks like Joomla cannot find the Kunena premium templates site. I get the following messages in the Kunena Templates page.
Code:
fopen(https://update.kunena.org/paidTemplatesK6.0.xml): Failed to open stream: Connection timed out
and
Code:
Could not connect to Kunena server. Please try again later.

I see in your kunena report at the kunena template "crypsis" this should not be possible.
So check in administrator section Kunena Forum: Templates
Aurelia the circle and then click on the button default
And take a look at the administrator section at kunena- Dashboard
Kunena Forum: Tools > Diagnostics if you see any errors there?

Ah, thank you, the "crypsis" value was from importing the kunena database tables from the previous website. I've updated it to "Aurelia" and run through the updates sites rebuild again but the above problems remain.

That's really interesting. I would not have known that a newer version of Kunena had been released without this post. My 6.3.3 version was not checking the update site (error listed above) and not reporting there was an update available to 6.3.4.
I've just now manually upgraded to 6.3.4 (uploaded zip to Joomla install extensions dialog) and still have the same problems with update sites and with templates in Kunena (again, after rebuilding update sites).
