Hi,

I have just upgraded my Joomla from 1.7.3 to 2.5.4. Everything for my JA Ores is fine now except for JA News Ticker which produces the following error:

Strict Standards: Non-static method JAStArticles::getInstance() should not be called statically, assuming $this from incompatible context in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlamodulesmod_janewstickerhelper.php on line 206

Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlamodulesmod_janewstickerjast_articles.php on line 66

Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlamodulesmod_janewstickerjast_articles.php on line 68

Strict Standards: Only variables should be assigned by reference in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlamodulesmod_janewstickerjast_articles.php on line 71

Note that I’ve upgraded JA News Ticker to the latest version 2.5.1 through JA extension manager.

Also note that since my website is bilingual then I have two of JA News Ticker modules each for one language. The strange point is that only one of the modules suffers from the issue and the other is working fine.

I tried to duplicate the working one to be used instead of the problematic one but it wasn’t the solution.

Please anyone knows what is wrong?

Thanks,
Vaalf

Are the parameters set correctly in the non working ticker?

Hi,

Yes, parameters for both modules are the same and I’m sure that I haven’t changed any parameter recently that might has caused the issue.

Moreover, there is also another error pertaining to (displaying on) the slide show module:

Notice: Array to string conversion in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlacomponentscom_contentmodelsarticles.php on line 132 Notice: Array to string conversion in C:ServerUniServerwwwjoomlacomponentscom_contentmodelsarticles.php on line 132

Opening the articles.php file and going to the line 132 you see this line of code:

$id .= ':'.$this->getState('filter.category_id');

and it means to me that probably the problem is pertained to the “category id” stored within the database of those articles that are being displayed by slide show module. But have no clue actually where or how to start investigating the issue!

Very strange!

Thanks,
Vaalf

Hi,

I found the workaround to both error messages. That is by changing the line 132 of the articles.php file specified above to:

$id .= ':'.$this->getState('filter.category_id.include');

In fact, the .include at the end of the string will resolve both issues, but I’m not sure if it is a correct attempt. It might be either a Joomla or Joomlart bug ….. Could any joomlart developers sort this out, please?

Thanks,
Vaalf

Hi tamlm,

As you may see above, I have already applied a fix to the issue but need a developer to verify it.

Thanks,
