Phoca Download plugins need a fix to work on Joomla 5

[sulpher]

Hi,
I decided to migrate the existing site from Joomla 4 to Joomla 5 and caused the following error in the Administrator Panel:

0 Class "JPlugin" not found

I enabled debug and see this one:

This result I get when I proceed to System > Global Configuration or System > Extensions.
The content plugin causes this issue on the backend?

There are the following extensions installed on the site:


It seems the plugins (content and other) need to be adapted to work on Joomla 5 even with Backwards Compatibility plugin.
Thanks.


UPD: I thought Backwards Compatibility plugin was enabled after the update, but it did not. By enabling it the problem could be resolved. However, it is better to adapt PD's plugins someday.

Hi, yes, there is still no native 5 version for the content plugin.

Hi, I am now working on Phoca Download Content plugin, which I hope will be released soon. The releasing of button plugins is a little bit complicated due to massive Joomla changes, so unfortunately, this will take some time

Thank you, Jan - good to know about the “Content” plugin

I understand about the “Button” plugin and can live without it
