Currently I'm a little behind with joomla 1.5.25 and I'm preparing to upgrade to joomla 3.0. So, Music Collection won't be compatible anymore. Do I have to buy a whole new component or is there an upgrade option somewhere?

How does this the upgrade work. Can I just install a new version, or do I have to upgrade to Joomla 3 first? (and not loose any data).

Thanks.

    hello

    you could upgrade if your current account was active, but your account is expired, so you need to purchase a new one.

    to upgrade, the best way is to just install the 3.0 version, and then just backup the Music Collection DB tables.

    Alrighty, thanks again. Sorry, just one more question....you have the joomla 3.0 muscol on your site and it should be responsive right? But when checking on my phone it's messed up. Is that how it looks on the phone or has the mobile function not been activated?

    it's messed up..? can you make a screenshot?
    maybe it's only the player that is messed up... I can check it on my iPhone and it's just fine.. (another thing you can try: make your browser window narrower, like it was a phone screen. do you see the things re-arranged?

    I made some screenshots (they are a bit blurry, didn't have a good camera and windows phone doesn't have a screenshot option). I tested it with the browser window and that seems to work okay, until it's too narrow. It's the same idea on the phone. Things do get re-arranged in the browser. When looking at albumdetails on the phone the txt goes through the lines (or it was meant that way...)

    It's the player also, but that has to do with flash I guess.

    it's the player, really. you shouldn't worry too much abou this. making the player narrower should fix this (the re-arrangement is good, it's just that when it's too narrow the player doesn't fit)

    Germini, I purchased and installed the component. I also imported the database tables. But I can't get it to work.

    1. It seems it's not compatible with the template (nothing shows up and parts of page are missing)
    2. I don't see the albums in the component (although they are in the database.)

    Could I get help installing this?

    yes of course. please send me a link to your site, and also joomla admin access, at support@ joomlathat.com

    PS: I'm leaving now, so probably will not be able to take a look at it until tomorrow.. I hope that's not a problem.
