Asked by Martin S 4 years ago Last activity 4 years ago

Hello, I am a new subscriber on joomshaper. I have been trying to install joomla 3 quickstart package on my windows 10 but could not do it. I want to do so because I have been working on my website on localhost. Is there any solution to get around this problem ?. thank you very much in advance

Thank you for your answer, but I already have downloaded joomla 4 wampserver. On the other hand, I still need to carry on working on joomla 3 because I already have a working website, that I currently have put offline on localhost to add some new features that I have seen on the Helix ultimate template. so I need to do this at same time as working on joomla 4 which is still an alpha version.

Hi,

This sometimes happens when a specific user has been deleted that was the author of an article. When trying to load that content, it also tries to get the username based on the ID, which cannot be found in the #__users table.

  • Create a new user via the Joomla User Manager (admin backend).
  • Open your database manager using PhpMyAdmin
  • Go to the #__users table and search for the ID of the user you just created
  • Change the ID for this user to the one you see in the Warning message. ID: 871

And save

It will no longer give a user id error.
