PiTech Error On Joomla 6
Medialekt
Hello,
after installation on a brand new Joomla 6 page and activating the PiTech Template I get an Error 500 JFactory not found.
First in your error.php lin 17 you write JFactory instead of only Factory. Next error is in features/title.php line 51 same, you have to use Factory instead of JFactory. In same file line 87 also Juri is not used in this file... You should use in this file use Joomla\CMS\Factory; use Joomla\CMS\JURI;
Havent looked into other files, but I think the complete template is not fully ready for Joomla 6...

Accepted AnswerHello,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience.
After checking, I can confirm that some Joomla-5–specific classes (like JFactory, JURI, etc.) are still present not only in PiTech, but also in a few of our other templates. I’ve already informed our template team, and they will review all affected templates to ensure proper Joomla 6 compatibility in the upcoming updates. They will be much more careful regarding deprecated class usage moving forward.
For now, you can bypass these errors by enabling the “Behaviour – Backward Compatibility 6” plugin in Joomla, which will allow the templates to run smoothly until the updated versions are released.
We truly appreciate your patience, detailed feedback, and understanding. It helps us improve our products significantly.
Greets and thank you again!
