I just want to to add that it's unfortunate that I can get only one reply every 24 hours. I realize you may be in a country whose timezone is opposite mine.

For those of us who have subscriber-based websites, this is an urgent issue. K2 is unusable as it is. I'm not a programmer, and I don't seem to be able to make headway on this issue. Actually, I consider it a bug. The functionality is reduced from standard Joomla. Guests have to be able to see the title and intro of premium items. If this can't be resolved within a few days, I'll have to uninstall K2. I would hate to do that because I love the masonry effect, and I love the future potential in what I can offer my subscribers.

Please solve this. Telling me that I need to check the feed is just not useful. I don't know how to do that, or even where to look.

You get an answer every 24hours not only because of opposite timezones but due to the fact of that we do not work over weekends.

If you are looking for 24/7 support you should consider hiring a developer. Open source does not mean 24.7 support.

I have already posted my answer multiple times as well as links to documentation. I will post it for one final time.

You need to use the code snippet I sent you in your template overrides. The item.php in particular. Check the link to locate the file/ folder. Then you need to disable or change the feeds so users are not able to see the entire item from the RSS feeds.

It is that simple. I am really sorry If you are having issues implementing this solution.

Again, no idea how to affect the feeds, or even where they are, in order to implement what is already present in Joomla. I was not counting on hiring a programmer.

Unfortanately, I will be uninstalling K2 today.

Hi Lisa, take a look here...

1.) if not use joomla 1.5 and
2.) need to view non login users all k2 items where have access level public and register (if need extra access levels just put level(s) id in "i.access IN(1,2, your_extra_level_id(s))" and if click the item then must login edit ./components/com_k2/models/itemlist.php


final code ./components/com_k2/models/itemlist.php:62-88

if ($user->guest)
        {

            $query .= "i.access IN(1,2)"." AND i.trash = 0"." AND c.published = 1"." AND c.access IN(".implode(',', $user->getAuthorisedViewLevels()).")"." AND c.trash = 0";

            $mainframe = JFactory::getApplication();
            $languageFilter = $mainframe->getLanguageFilter();
            if ($languageFilter)
            {
                $languageTag = JFactory::getLanguage()->getTag();
                $query .= " AND c.language IN (".$db->quote($languageTag).",".$db->quote('*').") 
						AND i.language IN (".$db->quote($languageTag).",".$db->quote('*').")";
            }
        }
        else
        {
            $query .= "i.access IN(".implode(',', $user->getAuthorisedViewLevels()).")"." AND i.trash = 0"." AND c.published = 1"." AND c.access IN(".implode(',', $user->getAuthorisedViewLevels()).")"." AND c.trash = 0";

            $mainframe = JFactory::getApplication();
            $languageFilter = $mainframe->getLanguageFilter();
            if ($languageFilter)
            {
                $languageTag = JFactory::getLanguage()->getTag();
                $query .= " AND c.language IN (".$db->quote($languageTag).",".$db->quote('*').") 
						AND i.language IN (".$db->quote($languageTag).",".$db->quote('*').")";
            }
        }

Please use k2 template for above changes... :)

Vlachos Evaggelos, your way of changing the file itemlist.php gives error 1054 when browsing categories. I have installed Joomla 3.2 and K2 2.6.8. I think that the best solution would be to add a button select the level of access available in standard content manager of Joomla. But how? Sorry for my English.

I would suggest that instead of 'hacking' the core of K2 that you use Joomla!'s user function in your template overrides.
docs.joomla.org/Accessing_the_current_user_object

This way you will not lose your changes when you update.

Eventually, I just use the Akeeba Subscriptions extension. It is able to work with the component K2.

Hi George,

I have recently moved to K2, im about to uninstall it due to the same issue, I need customers to login to read content. I dont want to charge people... I want to capture their details so I can direct market to them... But they also need to be able to read the first 50 - 70 words, to incite them to login.. Native joomla can do this.

How did you configure Akeeba Subscriptions for the desired result?

Regards

Lawrence

This is so helpful, it works perfectly.

Now, I need the same logic to display in in K2 content module
