Hi all,

Just trying to resolve an issue I've encountered with K2 & J3.2.1 -

It seems I can no longer create new K2 items or categories ? also the edit item and edit category screens are all out of alignment. Rather than tab's running above the content window I get a bulleted list with the other config options listed beneath the content window.

I had the same issues with K2 2.6.7 and after reading some suggestions here upgraded to the 2.6.8 Dev build which I downloaded today.

It doesn't impact the live site other than not being able to add new content.

Any possible solutions ?
As site is live so I'm happy to PM an admin the details.

Running J3.2.1
K2 2.6.8 Dev Build
PHP 5.3.27
MySQL 5.1.72-cll
Template is Protostar so no frameworks etc.

Are these issues present in the frontend editing or backend?

Sorry Yiota

These are both backend editing issues.

Please try to follow the procedure below and check again

In Joomla Admin area go to Extension Manager > Discover (side bar nav)
Click on the "Discover" button at the top.
Find all of the K2 files that weren't installed and select them. Click on "Install" button at the top.
Go back to Extension Manager > Install
Reinstall the K2 SVN version zip file on top of your old installation.

Thanks Yiota

Re - Click on the "Discover" button at the top.

I don't have any K2 files that were not installed ? I *do* have josetta_ext files however.

Should I just reinstall the dev build ?

Try that and let me know please.

Thank you.

K2 Installation Status - Extensions, Modules & Plugins all reported Installed.

However no change in the Item or Category layout (backend) or the ability to edit/create a new Item/Category (backend)

In other words no change.

Do you use a customised backend template or the default one?

Yiota - the default one Isis.

Just incase I switched to Hathor and there was no difference.

Is it possible you can provide us with access to check it out?
Sent it through the contact form here: getk2.org/contact-us

Hi Yiota

I've submitted the details via your contact form. The subject line is the URL of this thread.

Thanks,

It seems that you are dealing with permissions issues.
In the console i get 403 (Forbidden) error in all css and js files required for the K2 to run properly.
Check your permissions for the media folder.

Hi Yiota

Thanks, I *think* the issue was with the Master .htaccess I was using. It doesn't have an exception for K2 so I guess was blocking access to the req'd files.

I disabled the .htaccess file and all is working ok - so thanks for solving this !

Now I need to find out the right rules for allowing access to the req'd K2 files :-) Any ideas ?

Maybe you could add something like this:

## Uncomment to allow full access to the media directory
#RewriteRule ^media/ - [L]

Thanks Yiota

I ended up using the AdminTools .htaccess creator and then adding in a few extras from the master htaccess file.

All good now and marked as solved - many thanks for your help!

You are welcome.
