Now that Joomla 1.6 is available, when and where can I download a version for Joomla 1.6?

 

Thanks for all the great work you guys are doing with K2!

 

 

I would also like to know the ETA for K2 for Joomla 1.6.

I have several K2 sites I need to set up due to the ACL functions in Joomla 1.6

FYI: Fotis said on Twitter that "K2 for 1.6 will be ready early Feb 2011"

 

Invalid consumer key/secret in configuration

Has there been any updated ETA? K2 is the last piece of the puzzle need for me to upgrade to Joomla 1.6.

It is not looking likely K2 will be done in the immediate future based on the conversations flying about currently regarding the short term nature of J1.6, I personally would like ACL function but am not rushing out to upgrade to 1.6 just for this - I have too many other extensions that are either still only 1.5 or not really stable in 1.6 and my site is far too busy to risk a migration.

I completely agree, after reading the Joomlaworks blog entry. The Joomla development team made a huge mistake by forcing those wanting to use 1.6 to go 'cold turkey' without any bridge to the thousands of 1.5 extensions in use. They then shot themselves in the 'other' foot by letting it be known 1.7 would begin development soon after 1.6 was released. K2 has become a critical component for Joomla sites. The 1.6 platform should have either included those features in its core, or understood a K2 1.6 version had to be available for Joomla 1.6 to be accepted.

It all just reminds me of the days of J1.0-1.5 and that really sucked too with backbiting, poor quality migration, poor quality 1.5 components etc which should have been sorted by now.

 

Could use some K2 love for my Joomla 1.6-7 websites! Any word on an update or is this a dead project?Steve

Check out the 2.5 svn

works with 1.5 and 1.7

Check out gavickpro world news template (new release designed with 1.7 and k2 2.5)

Also check joomlaworks.gr   allvideos and sigpro is ready for 1.7 and working with k2 2.5

Thanks William!Is 2.5 svn ready for primetime? I am only seeing 2.5 (RC). Is that what you mean? If you can provide a link if it's different from the (RC) release

 

I and not a dev, i know that info is slow, but i can tell changes are still being made, and it seems stable to me. I dont think the major template makers would be releasing unless a version marked stable would be soon.

The svn at the bottom of getk2.org has not changed, but the file surely has had many changes.

Thanks William.
