Template and k2 gets messed up after update

Sorry but I am not aware of any such JA representative. You may either need to kindly hire another developer or agency if unable to get in touch with the one being mentioned

This is Joey's contact details.

His email : devnjoo@gmail.com
His Skype: hiennm88

He emailed me after a thread on this forum. I don't know any way he could have gotten my email except if he was an admin here.

Screenshot of what he said to me:

Please tell me if I am doing something wrong when I check: https://www.useloom.com/share/8fc5e5b3a2cf4ae79bfab9d303ac3f67

aman204 Before your answer my last message, please consider this suggestion, is this possible: I install a backup from before the joomla update where the site is working. Then you find out where the css coding is defined in the template, and move it to the custom css so it is not overwritten when Joomla is updated.

starlight Hi

Sorry but I am afraid but it is quite time-consuming task as the site which is appearing fine has custom theme - Green in thememagic however, the site with relative issues doesnt have custom theme and apart from CSS code differences, both the site are loading different bootstrap files.

You may kindly hire some developer or agency in order to get it right as such customizations and debugging goes beyond ambit of "limited support"

aman204 Can you please try to explain why the site crash when Joomla is updated? My very limited understanding tells me that there are certain files that have been overwritten that was not supposed to be so. Should it not be possible to make those files not be overwritten during a joomla update?

starlight Can you please try to explain why the site crash when Joomla is updated?

As apparently seen and based upon first impressions, You can try to download and install latest version of template first as you are using quite older version and thereon, try to update Joomla version

Would suggest to also take backup of your site before performing aforesaid steps, in case rollback required whilst facing any issues e.t.c

You can refer to my earlier posts as reasons have been explicitly mentioned due to which layout or elements difference can be seen although most have been fixed by the custom CSS added apart from responsive issues which arent getting fixed due to various CSS conflicts as the responsive feature has been incorporated by the developer and doesnt come with default template

I don't understand how installing the latest version of a non-responsive template will work on a responsive template? Can you explain what you mean?

I do appologise my lack of understanding. I am not a joomla developer so I don't understand all that you have mentioned.

What I need to understand are what spesific css files are overwritten when joomla is updated, so we can try to install old backup from before the update. Take backup of the spesfic files where the css is defined. then do the joomla update, and then replace those css files with the functioning css.

Yes, You would require to reinstate the responsive feature by replacing the files from current template version in which code modifications or additions have been done in order to get the responsive functionality or better yet, Would also suggest to either change the template to JA Playstore which is more versatile, feature-rich, launched in 2016 and also responsive by default. It also has ACM slideshow configured with somewhat similar appearence

I assume it will be more convenient although the same would require getting some of modules re-assigned to available module positions in JA playstore and making some further changes as required

Thx for the clarification, but that's not really what I want though. I want to use JA Kranos as a responsive template, and I spent over a year working with one of JoomlArts developers to make that happen. And that is because I don't find any other template except JA Kranos to be the perfect template for these sites. And to remake it resposive again from the beginning is the worst nightmare for me.

All I want is to find out why its css is getting messed up when Joomla is updated, fix that, update joomla and keep using the template. Can you please explain if there are any files that I can backup, then update joomla and then replace those files for it to work? I.e first re-install the backup from before joomla was updated, and then backup the css files.

starlight Hi. I'm afraid there is not much we can do here. As You've mentioned the customization of the template went wrong. We do not support customizations and fixes to changes done. If the former user has took this job it was in His free time and we are not responsible for it.

Anyway if You are willing to get rid of this customization, install new template I may provide some code to make it responsive as a service for our product. It may not be a complete rework of template, but for sure will help squeeze site to mobile devices.

To do the above best would be to make a copy of Your site where I'll be able to work and not affect original site.

starlight

teitbite Thx for helping out. If we do it like that, would you customize it to look as it is on my site now? If not, is it not easier to fix the last few points that are remaining. Aman has already fixed most of the issues. The main problem left is the responsivness not working.

teitbite

starlight Hi. I'm afraid it will not look as now. I will only add the minimum classes needed to make the content fit to mobile devices, but it will also be a code which will not affect functionality in any way.

starlight

teitbite I understand. That wouldn't really be what I want. Could you please help fix the last few problems with the template as it is now?

These are the last few problems left (UPDATE):

starlight Hi. I have an "Access denied" when I follow this url. Can You please attach the image here directly.

starlight Hi. Thanks. Doesn't look complex to fix. Please disable RSFirewall so I can see the site. Right now I have:

403: Access Forbidden
Your location (NL) has been blacklisted.

starlight

teitbite Please try now, I have disabled blocking of Netherlands.

starlight

teitbite were you able to enter? I see that the color in the menu of the functioning site has been changed from green to blue. Just to make sure you are working on corect site, the non-functioning site is finnveien.

starlight Hi. Yes I can, was just unavailable for that last couple of days because of family stuff. Here some css classes to improve/fix problems mentioned.

@media only screen and (max-width:1200px) {
.top-social .custom {
    background: #fff;
}

.t3-mainbody {
    width: 1170px !important;
}
}

@media only screen and (max-width:1169px) {
.t3-mainbody,
.container {
    width: 100% !important;
}
}

starlight

teitbite Thx! That's awesome! I have added the code.

Do you have a fix for the hamburger button that is disappering in the responsive mode?

teitbite

starlight Hi. I can't see the code being added yet and I think one of the classes I've given You should resolve this as well, but just in case:

@media only screen and (max-width:991px) {
.navbar .container {
    width: 100% !important;
}
}

starlight

teitbite Thx! I have added the code, it almost fixes the issue, but not fully. Please watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CNY0axMEqfk
