Hello Murugappan Ramanathan,

Apologies for the inconvenience. Our latest Quickstart packages for Stratos and Revstat are only available with Joomla 5. We currently do not offer Quickstart packs for Joomla 4.

However, both templates are fully compatible with Joomla 4. You can install the template package on your Joomla 4 site manually.

Quickstart Pack: A full demo website with Joomla, template, demo content, and extensions. For fresh installs only. Template Pack: Template only (no demo content or extensions). Suitable for existing Joomla 4 sites but requires manual setup.

If you're new to Joomla, we recommend testing the Joomla 5 Quickstart locally to understand the setup before manual installation.

Best regards

Hi Atick,

You mean intall the template only (not the quickstart) in Joomla 4? If that yes, then it defeats the purpose as we need the samples in there to customize. We are not ready to move to Joomla 5 as some of the extension we use are not compatible with J5.

Thank you for your response — and I completely understand your position.

Yes, you’re right. The template can be installed on Joomla 4, but the full demo content is only available via the Joomla 5 Quickstart. We understand this may be inconvenient if you’re relying on the sample setup for customization.

The reason we now only provide Joomla 5 Quickstart packages is because Joomla 4 is reaching its end of support by the end of this year. To ensure long-term compatibility and support, our new Quickstarts are built exclusively for Joomla 5.

That said, the templates themselves remain compatible with Joomla 4, so you can still use them manually. If needed, I’d be happy to guide you through recreating the demo layout step by step on Joomla 4.

Best regards

In big short.

1. Install Joomla 4.4
2. Install Template
3. Install SP Page Builder
4. On laptop install Localhost software, Xampp or similar - there install QS and export all pages.

Menu structure is very easy, you can rebuild in few minutes having pages.

Hi Paul,

I know that procedure which we use every day from our development to production migration. However, that is a one hectic process but, yes we could export each page as and when we need it. But you have speed breaker in your design. Every template always seems to have some customised extension or code. To move them is a pain in the you-know-where.

Example: Stratos template had a custom coded "image-scroller" which I could not understand where the JS and CSS parts went (especially when they are minimized). Finally i got Ofi to help me out with that. But by that time i accomplished myself with help of ChatGPT to develop my own version using only CSS without any JS. SPPB had an addon called "clients". Why did Joomshaper developers not enhance that addon into standard SPPB? Wanted to exhibit their capabilities, i suppose.

Why did Joomshaper developers not enhance that addon into standard SPPB?

A very good question, that I also asked in the past, but ... for some reason somebody decided to be like that.

According to Joomla Developers J!4.4 will be supported only for next 4 months, then no updates. And time and days are running fast.

Perhaps they do not have the IQ for advanced thinking and innovation. Looks like they are doing what the medical industry is doing - giving improvements in installments. If that is true, then they better realize that users tend to move from your product to others or even adopt raw web stack with free addon libraries like jquery.

Oh well, one's demise is one's own doing.
