Update to 2.5 was created by jltrussart11
Hi,

I've justed update to from 2.3 to Version 2.50+ Build 160311

I love the new admin interface., but i encounters severals problems.

1) The comfort update doesn't work. I add my key, but when I try to start an update, the home screen is showing, withtout any buttons to click next.

2) It would be nice to have a css plugin that add the default templates styles instead of creating new template everytime. This could be useful to have access to the updated published for the default template.

Why not something like Wordpress parent/child templating system :)

Or Joomla local HTML directories. :)

Hi Tony,
how does this work? Pro & cons ?
Sorry... I've not open Joomla admin since v1.5. :blush:

Or spip squelettes system. But here : if it's only css :
- Load "default" global CSS : for ALL template
- Load template.css

can do the trick. The way we do for some question type or system. In 2.06 : we always load /styles-public/lime-progress.css for example.

I use a similar approach with a common template for several "children" survey templates (mostly with changes in startpage & question.pstpl) but all looking in the "parent" template for CSS, JS & pics...

Hi Ben, sorry, I misspoke - the Joomla local HTML directories are to override the structure of various components or modules, not necessarily their appearance (CSS).

Hi,

I'm OK with Ben_V for view/pstpl: it can be great to have
- core default template
- Global settings defined template
- Template base defined template (config.xml ?)
- Final survey template

If i need : startpage.pstpl : i get
- Final survey template if exist
- config.xml survey template if exist
- Global settings defined template if exist
- core default template (must exist (or plugin can add pstpl ? ))

But css is more easy : we can load 2/3 css file.

I'm still unable to use the comfort update. It's stops to the welcome page.
I open an ticket for this. I'm dissapointed to have paid for this feature when it's doesn't work....
