Kunena 6.3.0 released

The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 6.3.0 [K 6.3.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 4.4.x/5.0.x/5.1.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 6.3

If you are having problems then, for your own benefit, it would save us all a lot of time if you would kindly post your configuration report when you ask for help from this forum. If you do not post your configuration report we will not ask you for it but you will probably not get your problem solved, either.

K 2.0 support will cease on 31 August 2013 and this section of the forum will be closed and archived after that time and no further questions will be answered about this version.

:evil: When you begin to write the correct code?

You will need to escape all instances of '&' to '& amp ;' or use htmlspecialchars
() in you code!

An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs". Entity references start with an ampersand (&) and end with a semicolon (;). If you want to use a literal ampersand in your document you must encode it as "&" (even inside URLs!). Be careful to end entity references with a semicolon or your entity reference may get interpreted in connection with the following text. Also keep in mind that named entity references are case-sensitive; &Aelig; and æ are different characters. If this error appears in some markup generated by PHP's session handling code, this article has explanations and solutions to your problem. Note that in most documents, errors related to entity references will trigger up to 5 separate messages from the Validator. Usually these will all disappear when the original problem is fixed.

A word of advice. Please do not use all capitals when you post on our forum. The developers have heard you and are looking at what you have written but using all capitals and [angry] red font is a little irritating.

We understand that various XHTML code validators will "object" to the possibility or probability that Kunena is not 100% "compliant" with the XHTML 1.0 recommendations but this does not mean that the XHTML will not work even if there are flaws in the way that Kunena has been written.

We appreciate your attention to detail. Would you be willing to join the Kunena development team and assist the project by running these kinds of checks on the code and re-writing the XHTML so that it passes the code validator scripts that you've been using?

Ok. :) Now you know how some people are irritates invalid HTML/XHTML code ;)

Yes, invalid HTML/XHTML code works, but it although only slightly, but the affects the performance.

Thank you for the invitation! You are using github.com/kunena ? Corrections to make in branch github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/tree/2.0 ? Say what conditions need to perform?

I have an account on github.com, I'll think about your offer.

Thanks!

Hello,

You need to a do pull request against master which contains (k3.0.1), the branch 2.0 is just keep for reference

If you are using an IDE (like eclipse) it can tell you what are wrong in your code

I don't provide support by PM, because this can be useful for someone else.
