Hi,
I've just updated to 2.9.0 version and I face a problem:
The templates I've made for frontend inserting k2 items, are not loaded. They are visible and can be selected at menu link template, but the default tempate is loaded instead.
Pls help.

Chris

Additional info
I've tried
1. Fresh Joomla 3.9 installation, default Breez template
2. Fresh Joomla 4 (development) installation, default Breez template

The problem remains!!
Something wrong with K2 2.9 code??
Pls help!!

For starters, K2 is not tested with Joomla 4.

Secondly, if you refer to a custom frontend editing form (the itemform.php file) there have been quite a few changes in the stock template (we basically re-use the same file from the backend). If that's the case, simply copy the contents of the file included in the default itemform.php file in K2's templates and adjust accordingly.

Does the default template at least work properly for you?

Yes, the default template is working, but I need to change it. There must be 3-4 customized templates according to front end user.

If you already have different subtemplates per K2 category, then simply copy itemform.php inside each /template/YOUR_TEMPLATE/html/com_k2/subtemplateX/ folder, fill the contents of the file with what's in "/administrator/components/com_k2/views/item/tmpl/default.php" and modify as you wish.

When you're in the right category loading the respective subtemplate in K2 and hit to edit some item, it should load the customized itemform.php layout in that subtemplate.
