Hi I followed the instructions, but somehow, I must have missed something.... The mod is published in the login position but does not display the form when I click on it.

I attached the mod_login_jsocial.

Hi Ben!
Just wondering: I'd like to upgrade my site from 1.5.2 to the newest version. Is there anything bad that will happen to the site if I do so? Like breaking modules and images...anything really? Just want to know. My forums are now updated, but really want to get the site version updated as well. Please point me in the right direction. I'm having help with this so any tech notes you give will be greatly appreciated!!

It's always a good idea to have any components, modules, or plugins that you've installed handy so you can re-install them if there is an issue.
As for issues with 1.5.10 and add-ons, I want to say that you will need to get the latest version of jSecure and of JoomlaPack if you are using those.
Always be sure you have a backup copy of your site nearby!!!
One thing that I do if I've made any changes to the code in Joomla's core is unzip the backup package and go through the files there to see if any of the ones I've changed will be written over. This may be pretty cumbersome for you though as there will be a LOT of files for an upgrade from 1.5.2 to 1.5.10.

Thanks Ben. We finally got upgraded to 1.5.14!!!! A friend of mine helped us so we are good now!!
Another question: do you know of any good blog addons? I want to add a blog to our website...about different blogs actually on different subjects.
Do think it is overkill to have a blog and forums? They are similar yet different. Just wanted your thoughts. Thanks!!

To change this in the standard Joomla login module,
Open modules/mod_login/tmpl/default.php and on or near line 66, replace the link so you end up with this:<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=register' ); ?>"> <?php echo JText::_('REGISTER'); ?></a>
There is one other place where this link shows up.
In components/com_user/views/login/tmpl/default_login.php replace line 64 with the following:<a href="<?php echo JRoute::_( 'index.php?option=com_community&view=register' ); ?>">
This was done in Joomla 1.5.8 for JomSocial 1.0.27
not sure if this is new with the cambler template but I had to change the mod_login file at this location for changes to take effect
templates/rt_camber_j15/html/mod_login/default.php - AVASA

The file I was pointing to is the actual default file for Joomla. The file you're pointing to is the override file for the Camber template...which is the better file to make the change on. :cheesy:
Override files are located in the templates "/html/" directory and are the best place to make these sort of changes. This way, they won't be overwritten when you update Joomla.
