Same issue after updating K2 2.6.2. They did add/change some things with the extra fields and groups in this K2 update. Thankfully I only had one page using “double-grid” and similar styles, so I’m not too bad. Removing the extra field style from the k2 item is the a temporary solution, but found I had to do it through the database backend as k2 was still leaving a value even though it was now showing none/empty. In the database, the k2 item’s extra_fields is something like ‘[{“id”:”2″,”value”:””}]’ when an empty field should be ‘[]’

Hi Guys,

The K2 component latest version has more changes to make it compatible with Joomla 3.0.x . So i think that upgrading this component is not necessary when you still running website on Joomla 2.5.x .

Seriously? How about new features offered by Extra Fields in K2 since 2.6.2.? I really counted on them and now your advice is not to upgrade and stick to the old version K2. How about future K2 upgrades? Come on, I’m sure you can fix this issue.

Cheers,

Olek

Hi there,

Currently, we only have this JA Wall template with K2 version updated to 2.5.7

We are running full capacity in releasing monthly template and upgrading J!2.5 templates to be compatible with J25 and J30. We would love to get all of our products up to its latest version,

Give us some time to get JA Wall updated for latest K2 version.

Regards.

BUT WE ALL HAVE BROKEN WEBSITES NOW….??? 🙁

For those of us who did upgrade… Can you please provide a fix? Is there a way to go back down to the working version of k2 without loosing data? A way to preserve all my k2 items, tags, categories, etc?

A fix would be appreciated… There are MANY customers that have this problem from what I’ve read…

PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE?!?!?!

No worries. Simply download 2.6.1 from K2 website and install it over 2.6.2. Your site will be immediately up and running again.

PS. You can get earlier versions from the blog section of K2 headquarters.

You must replace code that get the extra fields in the template.

For example:
[PHP]if(count($this->item->extra_fields)) {
$extra_fields=K2ModelItem::getItemExtraFields($this->item->extra_fields);
if (count($extra_fields)) {
foreach ($extra_fields as $key=>$extraField) {
if ($extraField->name == ‘FIELD NAME’) {
$the_value = $extraField->value;
break;
}
}
}
}[/PHP]

with this one:
[PHP]$the_value = $this->item->extraFields->FIELD_ALIAS->value;[/PHP]

Then you have to edit the K2 category and set “show” to the “Extra Fields” in “Item view options in category listings”.
