Jdiction support for Joomla 4 and php 8
Harald Leithner:
Attached is the current j4 version I have, I plan to change how jdiction (and other extensions) are distributed in the future, that's also a reason why no offical relase is done yet.

Hi Harald,
I tried this new package but it does'nt work for me.
My local configuration is as fallow:
xampp-windows-x64-8.2.4-0-VS16
Joomla_4.3.3-Stable-Full_Package
I got the error: Class "jDiction" not found
Global Configuration / Server / Database Type -> no "JDicition MySQLi"
Best Regards
Denis
Harald Leithner:
did you activated the plugin first?

Hello Harald
Yes, I did.
I worked hard to migrate my website to Joomla 4 and PHP 8. Searching all over the net I found two interesting links:
https://docs.joomla.org/Potential_backward_compatibility_issues_in_Joomla_4
https://joomla.digital-peak.com/images/blog/JWC17_Prepare_you_extension_for_Joomla_4.pdf
I've analyzed the template I'm using and corrected all the namespaces like Jfactory, JUri and many others until it works (dbo connect shouldn't be forgotten).
May I suggest you do the same please.
I'm not a developer but I think this is the best way to ensure compatibility.
With all my respect for your work
Best Regards
Denis

Hi Denis,
thanks for the info, I'm pretty aware of how to upgrade to joomla 4 and 5, since I'm Joomla CMS Maintainer and Release Manager for Joomla 5.0.
I have this version of jdiction running on several Websites with j4.3.3 and php 8.1 so I'm pretty sure it should works.
Can you go to the check page of diction /administrator/index.php?option=com_jdiction&view=check and paste a screenshot?
thanks
