Reddie's weblog

The remaining step for my migration to Joomla 2.5.1 was to install my extensions and ckeck if all is working.

Installed the most recent version of Easyblog and ArtBook. ArtBook is using Joomla content for display, so no additionel steps were needed besides checking the module parms. For Easyblog I had to export the easyblog tables from my old database, change the prefix to my new database's prefix and import it in the new database. Installing Easyblog's modules and chekcing the module settings and that was all there was to it. Really. Found another twitter module (again from RocketTheme) and published that and for now... I'm done.

Since I am seriously thinking about upgrading to Joomla 2.5, I need my own company website up-to-date. Time to update Easyblog to the newest, joomla 2.5-ready verion: 3.0.7796.

It was as simple as it said it would be, just install through the back-end and all is said and done.

Today was a nice day to try and update a Joomla 1.7.5 site to Joomla 2.5.1.

An ideal site to start with as it has only a couple of menu items with single pages and besides the JCE editor only one extension, Easyblog, with, really, only one blog-itme.

So what can go wrong, huh? Apart from some hickups, basically nothing and all is running smoothly.

 

Today, I've updated my Easyblog to the newest 3.0.7073. First thing to notice is that I cannot add a tag to this post. D'uh...

But otherwise, everything looks okay.

 

Today, I updated my Easyblog component to the newest version, 2.03647. Brand new admin look, and did some changes on the layout, too.

Joomla 1.5.23 is out for 2 weeks now so it was time to do an update. Updated several components, modules and plugins while I was at it, EasyBlog, RSFirewall!, RSSeo, JCE...

Updated my own site. Several components had newer versions, like Easyblog, RSFirewall, RSSeo and the JCE editor. So now we are up-to-date once again.

Another update of EasyBlog and layout problems fixed. Turned out they adjusted something in their language fields and of course, those changes aren't made in your own template files. So could fix it, but not amused...

After updating to version 1.8.152, I  lost some layout-thingies. ANd here I was, figuring I'd covered that when I created my own theme. Apparently not so gotta fix that, after I update to the newest version...

Well, since I lost my settings, it was neccesary to create a new theme, to make Easyblog match my site's layout again.

Updated my Easyblog extension to the newest version, 1.1.112.

Upgraded my EasyBlog component to the newest version 1.1.106 BETA.

I wasn't completely satisfied with K2 for my blog, so I went ahead and installed EasyBlog for Joomla!
