I delayed my site publication and have been waiting until News Portal for Joomla 1.5 comes out. I thought iJoomla has well prepared for Joomla 1.5 and it doesn't take long to get 1.5 compatible version. It's now disappointing me gradually 

The link you provided s a sel-reference!

One of the problems with News Portal for Joomla 1.5 is compatibility with lateral applications. For instance, we have a complex and article-heavy site that uses both News Portal and Sidebars. Both products have to be in sych before we can migrate. Moreover, the existing products make heavy use of tables. This could be a problem with a css-compliant and object-oriented framework like Joomla 1.5

We have several options. We may migrate without News Portal and sidebars, then evaluate them again when the iJoomla upgrade occurs. We have neot made a final decision, but must do so within  few weeks.


Nicely done, Pierre.

I have a few questions that may seem like I am impatient, but I am not. I am just trying to get information to make a purchasing decision.

Is there a priority list for the component development to 1.5 compatability?
For example, Is the magazine component first, then the news portal ect...?

Are these components going to be native 1.5 or will they work with Joomla in legacy mode?

Will a beta of the 1.5 components be made available or is the plan to release a stable version?

I see allot of people are asking for release dates and timing, it would be nice for someone at iJoomla to give weekly updates on this thread.

Thanks and keep up the great development

Ok Let me try to reply in a way everyone can understand.
Joomla 1.5 is all new code.so far hope everyone understand.
This mean all module and component need to be written as new.
Joomla 1.5.1 is out now as of yesterday 1.5.2
This newer version as major upgrade in it also.
This mean to you many new module and component will not function properly under this upgrade.Now version 1.5.3 is out in a few weeks
With more upgrade.

So how do you expect the core team of ijoomla to keep up when code is been re-written as they code the new component and module and plugin?

If you really need the look of it I would suggest looking at a template that have as close of the feature as ijoomla will bring to us.
2 come to mind youjomala and gavick template.

I use gavick template however even them since upgrading to 1.5.3 there a few bugs now on there template.I am sure will be fixes soon.

If you really need it return to joomla 1.0.15 This can be done without to much pain or wait till it ready.

Again give them time as it not easy to keep up with all the changes done to joomla core and this is not there doing.

Ricardo,

The link you sent above shows that the iJoomla Magazine is released for 1.5. The version that I see in my profile is v2-1-07. Where is the 1.5 compatible version released?
