Fix for Karma function, which is broken in Kunena 5.2.1
Fix for Karma function, which is broken in Kunena 5.2.1
5 years 3 months ago - 5 years 3 months ago
Hi there
I discovered a bug in the new Kunena 5.2.1 update, which has broken the Karma function.
It is actually not a bug. The developers have changed the way the Karma function works.
I have been speaking to the developers on the Kunena.org Forum, and they have implemented a fix which will be included in the next official release.
However, this bug is located in the Templates for Kunena, so you will have to update all of your 9themestore Kunena 5.2.1 templates to fix this problem.
Problem = Karma value does not show and the + button to increase karma, says "smite" instead of applaud.
After applying code fix:
The thread I created for this problem on the Kunena forum is here:
www.kunena.org/forum/k-5-2-support-archi...-kunena-5-2-1#214969
Github code edits for fixing this problem in all Kunena templates is located here:
github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/commit/d5...59cf998dd9f7805dbff5
I have manually applied the code edits to NTS Kay 5.4.1 on my site and can confirm the new code edits do fix the Karma problem.
Regards
Derek
p.s.
When I installed NTS Kay 5.4.1 on my site, the version number did not update to 5.4.1 and is stuck on 5.4.0.
There was an error message that popped up when I installed 5.4.1, that said something about the version number not updating.
