Hi there,

Happy New Year.

I am not sure if you know this, but your Template Quickstart contain old versions of your extensions and Joomla, which generate errors. Uninstalling and reinstalling such extensions is very unproductive. It would be great if you spend some times and repackage your Quickstarts with the latest version of both your extensions and of course the latest version of Joomla.

Thank you.

Hi Ahmed,

You are absolutely right - but the 09 quickstarts should be up to date.We will make our way through the older packages once Ive released the next theme and then actually move all themes across to the new snapshot system.

Which package in particular were you you using?

Anthony.

Hi Anthony,

So far I am using the Elevate (March 09) template. And this is where I found the old extensions. So far the Slideshow, PrettyBox and JB Library had to be uninstalled and reinstalled again. I even have to modify the component.php line (538) to fix an error that probably has nothing to do with you.

Ahmed

Thanks Ahmed,

What was the component fix?

Thanks Anthony

An error is generated whenever you want to add a new module. It does not stop you from adding a module. I do not remember the exact error. But I remember the solution. First the module at fault after googling is mod_exmenu-j15

And the best answer I got after some research is the following..

Change the file
...administrator\components\com_modules\controller.php

Line 538 from

Change from
$files = JFolder::files( $path.DS.$dir, '^([_A-Za-z0-9]*)\.xml$' );

To

$files = JFolder::files( $path.DS.$dir, '^([-_A-Za-z0-9]*)\.xml$' );

Thanks Ahmed

FYI, I was also going through the Bamboo box info - through the Avanti documentation - and got the same Bad Karma message -

Thx
