Kunena 7.0.2 Released

The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.0.2 [K 7.0.2] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 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

Topics that are moved into this category are generally considered to be closed. Users may want to add additional information but these topics should not be resurrected in order to discuss new problems or unrelated matters.

It seems as if this very old topic has been resurrected; the conditions reported by colin99 may or may not have changed in the months that passed when he had problems earlier (I don't know) but what I do know is that we're searching for a needle in a haystack with no knowledge about what that haystack looks like.

I write this often: if people would like our help (and we're only too willing to offer our advice) it helps if people look at the FAQs page at some time or another. I am not saying that the FAQs page has the answers but there is information there that may be useful in cases where we're left guessing as to the cause of problems that people may have. B)

So, for your benefit and for the benefit of others reading this topic who are scratching their heads so that they can make a positive contribution to it, I have done two things:

1) Moved this topic from the archive, and

2) I suggest that the following general information may be relevant in this case:

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.

I appreciate that -- the way I see it, if I am having this problem, there are likely dozens if not hundreds of others experiencing the same thing.

I am now going to find out how to generate the configuration report --
I have seen this term used -- and I am more than eager to comply to help
others fix their problems.

I am a Kunena user since day 1.

A couple of things:

1) It looks like you have some outdated and conflicting Joomla menu items (and these may cause problems, if not certainly in the operation of your forum on the frontend but possibly in relation to the problems you are having in terms of upgrading from K 3.0.3). Tidying up the Joomla menu may help.

2) You are using an old, outdated version of Joomla. Updating to J! 2.5.20 may help to overcome problems with "standard" Joomla operations like upgrading Joomla extensions.

3) Your versions of PHP and MySQL may have some influence on the way that installation processing instructions are performed

4) Which method are you using to upgrade from K 3.0.3? Please refer to the K 3.0 Upgrade Guide and describe which of the methods you have been using without success.

Certainly, if there are dozens (or hundreds) of people going through the same turmoil as you, this would be a matter of the utmost concern. We would like to hear from other members of the community who have these kinds of problems. Experiences that are shared are how we all can benefit. So, for all those other people who are having this problem, let's hear from you, too! :)

Thank you for the quick reply --

I did a file restore to a slightly earlier version because of today's issue.

I will get the site as up to date as possible -- I usually run the most up to date
version of Joomla within 7 days of any update (for the shake down...)

And I will examine those other suggestions.

"Outdated and conflicting Joomla menu items..." I am not entirely clear on what that means but I will soon find out.

Many thanks!
