Problem with accents 3.4.3 version
As I mentioned, we did tested at our end and the module works fine with the suggested database collation, something goes wrong on your site specific so we need a closer look to check for you. It's hard to predict the issue and suggest you without seeing it.
maybe the issue is located in the function that breaks the word of the header, it has something to do with the text limit, for I can see special characters in the modules.
Can you take a look at this?
Our developer checked that and unfortunately we could not replicate the same issue at our end.
Hi,
I found the problem; the following function is causing the issue with special characters:
if(strlen($text) > $limit_value){
$text = substr($text, 0, $limit_value) . $at_end;
}
(lines 39 and 40)
in the file mod_news_pro_gk4/gk_classes/gk.utils.php
So I have replaced that code with the code of the previous version:
if(JString::strlen($text) > $limit_value){
$text = JString::substr($text, 0, $limit_value) . $at_end;
}
and it has fixed the problem.
Can you take a look at this?
Thank you so much for your help and patience.
have you tried replacing JString class with StringHelper? I've just read that JString is deprecated.

I will forward to our team for further checking.

Hi
To be honest, we're working on upgrading our enterprise extensions, once it's done we will update the free extension. I will update here when having news.

mdCYF Hi,
News Pro GK5 latest version is 2.1.5, it was updated 2 months ago. You can give it a try.
ja-developer I mean news show pro gk 4, not gk5
mdCYF Hello,
It's unlikely that the GK4 version will be updated further unless it's for bug fix.
We highly recommend switching to the new GK5 version instead.
Hi,
How can I switch all the GK4 modules to the new GK5 version?
Do I have to create them again? is there any way to do it automatically?
Thank you so much.
Best regards
I'm afraid that you will have to create them and configure again.
