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.

This category contains miscellaneous, uncategorised user contributions, (templates, modules, plugins and hacks) relating to older versions of Kunena that are no longer supported.

The topics in this category are for historical interest only. Owing to the structural changes that occurred in K 1.7, many of the ideas in these topics will not work with later versions and, for that reason, the topics are locked.

Question Changing "Category Header" and Missing Language Files

Changing "Category Header" and Missing Language Files was created by tasteofkush

Hi there,

I actually have two issues I am trying to resolve:

First, I want to change the title "Category Header" as visible in my website forums(attachment 1) to actually reflect what is entered under "Name" or "Category Header" in the Category Manager(attachment 2).

I have read previous posts on this issue and everything states that the issue needs to be addressed in the "language file" (as posted in a previous post: /public_html/administrator/components/com_kunena) which leads me to question 2. Where should these files be located as they are not my directory?

Thanks for your help.

The text "Category Header" is changed by modifying your language file. See Where is the language file?

From K 1.7.2, some languages are included in the basic installation kit. This will change in K 2.0 in that only the English language will be included in the basic installation and other translations will need to be installed separated, as you need them. This procedure is explained in K 1.7 Language Support

You are encouraged to upgrade to K 1.7.2 now and then customise any language strings (e.g. "Category Header") after doing that. I hope this information helps.

If we upgrade to 1.7.2 will this alleviate this issue of "Category Header" being listed as the title? We don't want a generic title under "Category Header" but would like to actually designate this title for each section of our forum. (i.e. if we have 3 separate sections - "Announcements", "Feedback", "Welcome" listed under the "General" category - they should all list "General" as the "Category Header", we then have a separate category labeled "States" with "California", "Alaska" and "Arizona", those sections should have a category header of "States").

Thanks.

"Category Header" (or whatever text you change it to) is a generic title that will be used for all categories. No, there is no way to change this on a category-by-category basis.

For some reason the text 'Category Header' is hardcoded into the language file and displays for all forum categories..

COM_KUNENA_FORUM_HEADER="Category Header"

This is not very useful. Here's how I fixed it in Kunena 1.7.2 to show the actual forum category name.

Find showcat.php

Code:

\components\com_kunena\template\default\threads\showcat.php

Look for :

Code:

<h2><span><?php echo JText::_('COM_KUNENA_FORUM_HEADER'); ?></span></h2>

Replace it with :

Code:

<h2><span><?php echo $this->objCatInfo->name; ?></span></h2>

or for improved readability, assign it to a variable in the top of the file:

Code:

$category_header = $this->objCatInfo->name;

then echo that out:

Code:

<h2><span><?php echo $category_header; ?></span></h2>

Works for me.

Nice lil tweek be good if we could choose custom categorie headers via kunena backend though when we create them.
