Use on c5 8.3.2? #6

Open Clindbergh opened 6 years ago

I just tried to install the package on the current version of c5 8.3.2 said installation was not possible.

What would have to be done to make it work?

what is the error?

Clindbergh commented 6 years ago

The concrete5 backend refuses to install the addon. It says it is a defect package and suggests that the controller.php is invalid or the package has not been updated for 5.7 or higher. I tried to XDebug into the code that loads the dashboard and it seems that class was not loaded. Possibly a missing autoload or boot script introduced in a newer version?

So this has not been maintained for at least 3 years and I have not used concrete5 for at least that long. I'm sure that concrete5 has changed a lot since then and it doesnt surprise me that it doesnt work. I would suggest checking out some of the forks to see if another developer has kept up with this project. This fork was made because the original author was no longer maintaining it for new versions and I needed it updated for a project at that time. I looked at his repo and it looks like he hasnt touched it since then as well.

I just checked, you downloaded the zip, rename the folder to designer_content and you can install it.
