Bugs with Kunena 6 version of NTS Kay

Hello Support
Sorry for the LONG...... message, but it is all important!
A few weeks ago, I upgraded my website from Joomla 3 to Joomla 4 and also upgraded from Kunena 5 to Kunena 6, and installed the new version of NTSKay template.
I am guessing not many Kunena users have upgraded to version 6 yet, but that will start to accelerate now that support for Joomla 3 will end next year.

I have already discovered a large amount of bugs with Kunena 6.0.1.1 and reported them to the Kunena.org forum - most bugs are listed on Github for fixing.

Now that I have explained the BIGGER picture, I have a found a few bugs with the Kunena 6.0.1.1 version of the NTSKay template.
I am reasonably certain these are Template bugs and not being caused by the Kunena 6 core - but I could be wrong.

New SVG option in NTSKay template works best
When I was using NTSKay with Kunena 5, I used FontAwesome.
During my experiments, I have discovered that NTSKay with Kunena 6, works best with SVG as the Icon Type.
Most elements on the forum display correctly using SVG, however when I use FontAwesome, it didn't look right - lots of small errors.

Known Major Bug with Templates in Kunena 6.0.1.1
There is a major bug with Kunena 6.0.1.1 that effects all installed Templates. I think it's worth mentioning that first, just for general knowledge.
The Edit CSS and Edit SCSS buttons are broken in the backend of Kunena 6.0.1.1 - the bug is listed in Github, so that it gets fixed.

Bugs I have found in NTSKay
*Please note that I also tested using the default Aurelia template, to make sure these were not Kunena template core bugs.
1. Link to User Profile in Left side column shows twice instead of only once.
An extra element appears inside of [square brackets] that should not be there.

2. On the same page, link to User who posted a comment is not working correctly. Instead of the User Name displaying before Topic, code is showing instead.



3. There are some errors affecting "extra information" links for each user.
There are 2 different problems.

First problem, is that some weird elements are showing behind icons.
There is a faint vertical line behind man icon and colour behind birthday cake.
Screen capture shows what I mean. I have zoomed in so you can see it more clearly.



I can't work out if the second problem is caused by NTS Kay or Joomla core ???
When I have Icon Type = SVG, only the "little man" and "birthday cake" show - email, location and website link disappear.
When I have Icon Type = Font Awesome, all icons display.

Icon Type = SVG



Icon Type = Font Awesome



4. I found some PHP errors in the error_log for the server.
The main error is repeated 1000's of times:
[15-Aug-2022 14:32:05 Australia/Sydney] PHP Warning: Undefined variable $target in /home/******/public_html/components/com_kunena/template/nts_kay/layouts/bbcode/url/default.php on line 35

There is also another error, but it only pops up some times. I'm not sure if this is important or not ?
It looks like this is a Kunena 6 core error.
[15-Aug-2022 13:55:24 Australia/Sydney] PHP Warning: DOMDocument::load(): I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/*******/public_html/media/kunena/core/svg/contract.svg" in /home/moviestu/public_html/libraries/kunena/src/Icons/KunenaSvgIcons.php on line 68

Hi,

Joomla 4.1.5/Kunena 6.0.2/php 8.0 or 8.1

If I select [Symboltype] "SVG" and [Load FontAwsome Icons] "Yes" the table is spoiled by a randomly extremely large icon. It cannot be determined, in which row this appears.



If I select [Symboltype] "Fontawsome" and [Load FontAwsome Icons] "Yes" or "no" it looks OK to me, but avatars disappear, which is unacceptable



I did not find anywhere how to override this template, please give the hints (css and html)

Hi again,

Hi AhLoui,

Thank you very much about your information. We updated some css rule to fix all issues on your website. However, you need to load bootstrap 5 into your website to fix the login toggle issue. Please download the latest package and update to your website.

Best regards,

Hi Hung,

thanks very much for your fast reaction.

Frankly speaking, I don't know how to "load bootstrap 5", as I thought J4 is based on BS5 automatically(?) Can you give me a hint?

Hi AhLoui,

I checked on your website but Bootstrap didn't appear to be loaded. I can help you check this issue if you can provide me a back-end account.

Best regards,
