Hi
I already sent the feedback to the lead teams on this. The extension is not planned for the Joomla 4. After last feedback it is sent again for discussion for Joomla 4.
Please consider Joomla! 4.x compatibility for Ad Agency Pro!
- Edited
In the Joomla! 4 compatibility check, the Ad Agency Pro component is displayed with "No update required", so it is obviously basically executable under Joomla! 4.
Only the modules
- Ad Agency Remote
- Ad Agency Geo
- Ad Agency Zone
- Ad Agency CPanel
- Ad Agency Menu
are displayed at "Update information not available". Whereby only "Ad Agency Zone" is actively used by us in frontend. Possibly Ad Agency CPanel and Ad Agency Menu are still needed at most for full backend functionality?
So the Ad Agency Pro component is already compatible with Joomla! 4! So your programmers only need to make the modules Joomla! 4 compatible. So where is the problem, please?
Please don't leave your customers out in the cold and continue to develop Ad Agency Pro for Joomla! 4!
With many greetings and trust in your common sense
Peter
Peter-Kaminski Hi Peter,
Currently we are focusing our resources on Guru's new update for J4. Once that is done we will take a further look into Ad Agency and decide on the update plan.
The new Guru is out... any updates on this? ja-developer
citybuzzmag Hi
Our dev team is currently doing some checking and testing with Ad Agency. We need to be thorough before confirming the update as Ad Agency is a big component.
We will follow up with you on whether the update to J4 is possible soon.
I'd also just like to add my vote to this.
I run a very large magazine website that relies on AdAgency to handle their banner advertising so if it's not developed for Joomla 4, that would be disappointing.
I'm guessing there's not much point then mentioning that you can't save campaigns under PHP7.4.
So hopefully the component is updated at some stage for both PHP compatibilty and for Joomla 4.
Thanks
We need this as well. There are no other components that have the features that AdAgency has.
SocialAds is not a replacement as it's missing almost all the features an adserver needs and you'll spend days trying to force workarounds and still not have a workable solution.
We're looking at an open source option as a replacement but it's not the route we'd like to go which is stay with AdAgency.
If anyone else finds something that will work, will you please share that info with me? We could really use it.
Would really like to renew my Adagency for J4.
If it is updated I'll renew, in the meantime I guess I'll look for another ad server.
I did ask also a few months ago and was much dissapointed to know that AdAgency would not be updated to J4.
We do not use it as a customer ads self-publishing, but even from the backend we haven't found such a versatile and precise ad managing system for joomla.
If it doesn't update, and no other component offers these features in J4, we might consider a different platform. Personally I hate wordpress, because in so many other features is not so complete and versatile as joomla. However, there are good extensions for ad managing, as I have been able to check.
It's a pity (for us) that you have discarded this updating. I won't discuss your reasons, probably you have good ones. But we have to think in our needs. Or, maybe, re-think.
If you find a good one, please tell us. I promise to do so if I find a solution myself.

Will do, our budget is iJoomla sized so we're looking at open source options and I'll be happy to post back if we come up with something close to comparable.

In another post, iJoomla mentioned considering migrating Ad Agency Pro to Joomla! 4 once Guru for Joomla! 4 was released. Guru was already released for Joomla! 4 in May!
So now would be the latest time to start working on reprogramming Ad Agency Pro for Joomla! 4.
Since PHP 7.4 will reach its end-of-life in November, Ad Agency Pro should at least be made PHP 8.1 compatible by then, please, in order to then release a Joomla! 4 version by 17.08.2023 at the latest.
Dear iJoomla team, could you please enlighten us about the further plans for Ad Agency Pro?
With kind regards
Peter
You have my voice here also. Adagency is marvel component.
Hi
This component is quite big and the code base is pretty old comparing with the new updates from Joomla 4. It will take us more time to check and test rather than extensions from JoomlArt. I will update here when having more news from dev team.
All these months have been full of bad feelings about chances JA will migrate Ad Agency Pro to J 4.x.
And seems to be the same until now... :-(
Time limits are approaching so fast! And feedback on migration has been, and keeps being so disappointing so far.
However, we keep big hopes. We need so much Ad Agency Pro.
We were first customers of Ijoomla for that component, much before becoming customers of JA (which has also good templates, however, as well as good support).
We keep expectant, even anxious, and, yes, at the same time much worried.
Hi bronston59
I am sorry about the late update. The developer team is working hard to migrate the extension, it is under the fixing bug phase and will be delivered to our QA team for the testing phase soon.
Best regards.
that is spectacular news - we just renewed this morning - and btw had to pay full price as the coupons come back as invalid.
Can you please refund us the difference? It's a lot of money.
Thank you
- Edited
parajeff Hi,
The coupon code JA-FLASHSALE cannot be used for Ultimate Developer bundle purchase, so that's why it didn't work when you tried.
FYI In case of refund request, you can submit a formal request to our private helpdesk and we will answer further there.
It's such a relief! Splendid news!!
So just to be clear you are bringing Ad Agency Pro and Publisher to Joomla! 4?
