Hi guys,

We have a J5.4.6 running with Joomshaper template Salon (latest d/l, should be version 2.0.2?) and we finally tckle the upgrade to Joomla 6.

The conditions are all met (php, db, etc) but there is the backwards-compat plugin. We have activated both, the generic one (Behaviour - Backward Compatibility) and the J6 one ((Behaviour - Backward Compatibility 6).

The Upgrade manual says, we need to disable the generic one, and the j6 one will be enabled with the upgrade process anyway.

Now the problem seems to be the generic one. When i disable this, opening the homepage (just the domain URL) gets

0 Class "JText" not found

and thats indepenend of how the j6 plugin is enabled or diabled.

We have extremely few extensions installed: Akeeba Backup 10.3.3 and SP Page Builder 6.6 (both the latest) and given the nature of the error, it can't really be related to those. I cannot help but to think the the incompatibility must lie within the Salon template ?

The question is, what would be the best approach to go on. /html/layouts/joomla/content/readmore.php

ps. There is one thing flagged in the dashboard, is about a single overide for

/html/layouts/joomla/content/readmore.php

which i did NOT approve yet, because it strikes me a little weird that the original core file has a lot of php code but the new version only these 2 lines:

defined ('JPATH_BASE') or die(); require HelixUltimate\Framework\Platform\HTMLOverride::loadTemplate();

but i think given the name (readmore) it can't be essential for the functionality of the template, and the word JText does not even occur in either file version, and i would guess the code of the core file just had gotten obsolete ?
