Helixultimate 2.1.3 Framework Cannot Be Installed On A New Joomla 6.0
Josef
Helixultimate 2.1.3 Template cannot be installed on a new Joomla 6.0 website with PHP 8.3. The only error message is a red bar with no further information. The plug-ins work correctly.

Accepted AnswerHi Josef.
Why am I not surprised? Version 2.1.3 is only for J4.4.x and Joomla 5.
Helix Ultimate 2.2.0 will be Joomla 6 Ready (stable version soon).
I guess you're ready to be BetaTester (RC) >> https://limewire.com/d/1VuIZ#PWsGMWADcN

Accepted AnswerJust put all info here

About .png and .webp, I could upload and use it on my demo J6.x site.

Please check also other image formats.

Accepted AnswerI'll explain the problem with PNG files when uploading in the basic settings in the template style options. There is no problem on the normal page with the add-on image.
For example, not all SVG shapes work in the add-on image.
Overall, some settings in the site template style options did not work well. The logo could not be positioned – I solved this using Custom CSS: /#sp-header { height: 100px !important; display: flex; align-items: centre; }
/#sp-logo {
margin: 0;
align-self: centre;
}
The font colours did not work in the menu.

Accepted AnswerSPPB and Helix - no relation. Here we talk about Helix template ONLY.
Please focus on issues inside template and J6. This update is only about that.
After all can you or cannot upload .png file thru Template Options > Basic > Logo ??
Josef
Accepted Answerin Template Options > Basic > Logo i can´t load png via select > upload >
This is only a problem with the upload and with this logo at this point. I tried again with a different png and it worked.

Accepted Answerso problem was with a random png file , not with all of them. Thanks for testing. I also made extra tests, and no issues in that area.
Remember also about Favicon icon (png file, 64x64 px )

Accepted AnswerI found another problem on a website with a sticky header, where the header becomes slightly transparent when scrolling. Do the hover effects for the menu items only work when the menu is at the very top? If you scroll a little, they no longer work?!
My Code in Custom CSS
sp-header {
height: 100px !important; display: flex; align-items: center; }
sp-logo {
margin: 0;
align-self: center;
}
.header-sticky, .sp-sticky-header, .sp-header.header-sticky { background-color: rgba(168, 213, 186, 0.75) !important; backdrop-filter: blur(6px); transition: background-color 0.3s ease; }
.header-sticky .sp-megamenu-parent > li > a, .sp-sticky-header .sp-megamenu-parent > li > a { color: #111 !important; transition: color 0.3s ease; }
