As far as we know, K2 2.x is fully compatible with Joomla 3.3. Any problems that will arise will of course be fixed ASAP.

As for K2 v3.x being cancelled... I honestly wonder... how do you make these assumptions? What I gave in that blog post is *estimates*, not exact dates. I prefer that we delay a bit that come out with something crap. We did this back with v2.0.0 when I personally "felt pressured" by our own community. The result? We had to issue continuous updates over the next days to address functionality that would be resolved, had we waited a bit.

K2 is one of the most active projects in the Joomla community.
K2 is our flagship product.
We actively support K2 here in the community.
K2 will soon reach 2 million downloads. Read that again.

Are these signs of an abandoned project?

K2 v2.x is fully functioning and working with the latest Joomla build right now. It's not in beta mode or RC mode or other half-ass ready release. You can safely use it and safely upgrade to v3.x when it's out. There is no urgency to go for 3.x even if we released it tomorrow. Like all software, you should (you must in my opinion) always wait a bit until a .1 or .2 release is out.

And P.S., if you wanna switch to another CCK, who's holding you? Go ahead and waste your time. If you wait though, you'll thank us later ;)

The schedule based on the blog entry by Fotis was this;

"We are soon wrapping up development and beginning extensive testing on the upcoming "big" upgrade to K2, version 3. We estimate to have a beta release out by the end of March, with the stable release being scheduled for late April 2014. "

The march beta release was missed in a big way and we are obviously not seeing a live version in April. At this point I doubt anything will happen in May.

Please just tell us what is happening! The K2 users deserve to be treated better than this.

Hello,

I upgraded Joomla of our website to 3.x version and installed K2 plugin.

However, we were stupid enough not to include Captcha and were targeted by spammers. Then we had to disable and delete over 20k (!) spam comments.

However, I noticed unusual increase in usage (overusage) and were even warned by our host serverl.
When I see the latest visitor I see accesses to our non-existing pages.

Some of these links are /tours/adventure-mongolia/1-latest-news/144-helps-tips/144-helps-tips.html?start=10

We found that these accessed links were written as K2 articles so we also deleted these articles, but somehow these links are still accessed by someone. Even the directory is wrong as we don't have this directory structure. But when I click on them it shows 404 error.

Could you please help me on this? We are constantly targeted by spam bots who are overusing our resources!

When you upgrade to joomla 3.2.4, the images do not open in modal.

And it happens on both Chrome and FireFox

Hi. This forum is related with K2. For issues/questions regarding Simple Image Gallery Pro you are kindly requested to use the JoomlaWorks Help Desk at www.joomlaworks.net/dashboard/helpdesk .

Happens within the regular SIGpro as well. You can't make a new gallery suddenly. Has something to do with the u[date.
Regards,
Dick

Sigpro was working perfectly this morning. After upgrading to Joomla 3.3, I cannot create a K2 Gallery After selecting the desired K2 item and expecting to see the Load Images page/field, I get redirected to the main K2 Gallery selection again. JQuery is the latest, cache is cleared in both broswer and Joomla. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Simple Image Gallery Pro was working perfectly this morning. After updating from Joomla 3.2.3 to 3.3, I noticed that I cannot create a new K2 gallery. It is possible to choose the item, but the subseqent 'Upload Images' interface does not appear. I am returned to the K2 Galleries selection. Anyone can advise? tks.

The database issues have probably to do with the upgrade process and as you understand there is nothing to be done in our part. Regarding the menu links i guess that the reason is the same. One thing you can try is to install K2 again ( don't uninstall first ). In any case remember to backup your site first. You can also ask for help at the jUpgrade guys since this seems more like a migration issue than a K2 issue.

Hello,

How can i acces the author variable in the tag template ? I tried this:also tried with catItemAuthor but it doesn't work.
$items->parrams->get('itemAuthor) does return 1, but all i get is:

I can create everything else but I cant create new or edit existing k2 menus. I used jupgrade for the migration.
Stopped working after 2.6.8
also everything in the db related to k2 lost Auto Increment , Primary Key and ids have a default zero rule.
I fixed the db manually but the problem with the menus still remain...

Hi K2 team,

In your last blog post, you are talking about K2 V3.

We are soon wrapping up development and beginning extensive testing on the upcoming "big" upgrade to K2, version 3. We estimate to have a beta release out by the end of March, with the stable release being scheduled for late April 2014.

We are late April, maybe have you some news about this new version that we are all waiting ?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards

Hi. How you migrated data? Have you used an extension? This sounds like the extension you used didn't migrate the data properly.

Skráning->Skráning á biðlista

Is ok for me without login ;)

Hi,

Did a fresh install of joomla and K2
migrated K2 data to 3.2.*

Anyways after upgrading it seems everyone needs to login to view K2 items... but not joomla content...

See here
gerpla.is/__a/

If you select Skráning->Skráning á biðlista it should take you to a K2 item, but gives a login box.

However when you select Skráning->testt it takes you to the Joomla article.

So it seems to have something to do with K2 ???

Help or pointers greatly appreciated.

Regards
