What’s New in SP Simple Portfolio v2.0.1

The new SP Simple Portfolio brings PHP 8 support and fixes the routing system. Both of these enhancements have several benefits. 

SP Simple Portfolio v2.0.1 Changelog

  • New: PHP 8 support
  • Fix: The router issue is fixed for Joomla 3 and 4
  • Fix: All known bugs

Let’s know a bit more about them.

PHP 8 Support

This is what you all have been waiting for! You all know that PHP 8 comes with so many performance benefits and now you will enjoy them with your SP Simple Portfolio component as the latest version brings PHP 8 support.

PHP 8.0 is the latest major update of the PHP language. It comes with so many new features and optimizations including named arguments, union types, attributes, constructor property promotion, match expression, null safe operator, JIT, and improvements in the type system, error handling, and consistency.

We have given full support for PHP 8 with your favorite portfolio component. Now, your site running on PHP 8 will no longer have any issue with SP Simple Portfolio.

Revamped Routing System

The latest SP Simple Portfolio comes with the full support for Joomla 4. Following Jooma 4 guidelines, we revamped the entire routing system. 

Due to previous changes, some of our users encountered some kind of unwanted Google indexing issues. This is why we dropped the previous legacy mode in the routing system and adopted the modern routing system of Joomla 4. Now, we expect that our users will not be facing any such issues and enjoy a seamless experience with it.

The latest SP Simple Portfolio will support the current version of Joomla along with the upcoming Joomla 4. 

So, if you are using SP Simple Portfolio component on any of your websites or using any of our Joomla template that uses this component, please update your SP Simple Portfolio to the latest version and enjoy the newest features. Good luck!

That's a small z-index issue. You can solve it by applying a greater z-index.

It would be great if SP Portfolio could show related items via the component or a supplemental module. Thus, one must utilize the back button on a browser to navigate back to a category group. Related items also drastically improve click through.
