No you don't need jomSocial.

But if you select jomSocial integration in the config, then you need to have jomSocial installed on your system.
If you don't use jomSocial please make sure you select "Kunena" or "Auto Detect" in the integration options of the forum:

Heiko,

I kann hier nichts von Kunena sehen. Wieso die Vermutung das Kunena hier beteiligt ist?

Welche Versionen von Joomla und Kunena betreibst Du? Hast Du andere Plugins installiert (Twitter oder ähnliches)?

Hi You are running 1.6.0 RC1 - please upgrade to the latest 1.6.0 RC2

The help and rules options in the config are gone. Reason: It's a simple joomla menu. Look for "Kunena Menu" and unpublish any menu entries you don't like to show. You can also ad any new ones you like.

It should like similar to this:

New Discussbot needs RC2 in order to work. With older versions it gets automatically deactivated.

Yes, it is not listed in there if it's turned of.

This is known bug and will be fired before final.

Unfortunately not for K1.6.

I would try this with another browser. Sometimes floats result in having focus in different place than text itself. Usually it's bug in the browser or CSS issue.

You can also install our Jomsocial Kunena Menu plugin. It allows you to visit Kunena profile page from JomSocial.

I would call it sticky replies, maybe showing up in every page.

Few points:

1) your tab should be closed (only one can be open)
2) something like that, but you need to modify 3 into the same form as our other classes (or you can just include that php inside template without having any classes).

It doesn't work unmodified, though.. So you do need someone with decent coding skills.

Kunena does not fix menus from the previous releases -- it would just break existing menus that user has.

You should to to Joomla menu manager and remove all Kunena related menu items. Then remove them from the trash, too. After that Create Menu from Kunena backend.

I've tried to write some documentation on how it works:
docs.kunena.com/index.php/Creating_customized_menus

Please post support questions in the appropriate sections of our forums.

Thx!

Yes, you're right. Not all of them even have primary key -- some of them have just unique keys.

Glad that we got this one shorted out! The problem was the broken J1.0 -> J1.5 migration, which somehow affects only latest versions. No idea why..

I believe that you have the same issue in jos_fb tables..?

Please see the detailed readme: docs.kunena.com/index.php/Kunena_1.6.0rc2_Read_Me

For a list of changes. In addition you can check the full CHANGELOG.php inside every distribution.

Hope this helps!

What version of Community Builder do you have installed? Have you checked the minimum version requirements for CB?

Hope this helps!

Introduction

The Kunena Team is excited to announce the release of Kunena 1.6, Release Candidate 2. This is the second RC release and is stable enough to be used on live production websites in limited usage (primarily for testing) as long as minor issues are tolerated during the time before it becomes a final release.

Since the first release candidate of Kunena 1.6, the Kunena team has been focused on fixing over 100 bugs and issues including CSS fixes, usability issues, IE7 compatibility issues, API issues, new modules and plugins and adding translations for more languages.

Kunena 1.6 marks a major milestone for the Kunena project. A long list of open source contributors have committed over 2000 changes and have helped make Kunena the leading forum solution for Joomla 1.5 & 1.6. A long list of new features in addition with various optimizations and code restructuring have resulted in the most advanced Kunena version to date.

We continue to put a big emphasis on usability and easy of installation. As such the installer has been further enhanced to allow for multiple install and upgrade options. It performs its steps incrementally to avoid timeouts on slower hosts. It automatically performs actions as e.g. taking the forum offline during the install and re-enables it after completing the install.

Kunena now supports Joomla 1.6 style languages files that are backward compatible with Joomla 1.5. Multiple languages are included in the base install packages and more will be available and can be installed separately. Kunena 1.6 also support multiple languages to be installed on a single system and together with Joomla allows users to select their preferred language.

Templates have now been separated from underlying code and allow for version independent template development. Templates can embed various options that can be set via the included template manager (e.g. Avatar position left-right-top-bottom in the new default template - Blue Eagle).

The Kunena Team is fully committed to Joomla 1.6 and beyond and various modules have been developed to lay the ground work for future releases of Joomla.

Remember that you can test Kunena 1.6 with Joomla 1.6, but the support is not yet complete. For example, the Kunena menu will not be generated and there are some features, that do not work yet in Joomla 1.6. Kunena 1.6 will be ready for Joomla 1.6 once a final version is released.

This is the Kunena discuss plugin we just released as part of the RC2. It allows our and your site visitors to comment on and discuss articles of a Joomla site.

Currently no, but we are already planning this feature (not yet sure if they will be in K1.7).
