My template is 2.10; I noticed that there is an update to 2.11

If I try to downaload it I'm addressed to appPhone... wrong link or what? Do I have to download the upgrade manually?

And if I upgrade how can I protect the virtumeart overrides I did to some VM modules and to the product details view in \templates\gk_boutique\html\com_virtuemart\...?

Thanks

Hi,
link is ok. Just download gk_apphone_J!25.zip becasue it is always latest template version. Then unzip and in template folder you will find changes.txt file. Here you have info which file you need to override via ftp. If you will find file where you do some changes try merge files using for example WinMerge to find diffrences.

Thanks, but if my template is boutiqe (I think I wrote in the correct place...) why should I download appphone template? Maybe I was not clear in my question or I'm stupid... ;)

I ask again: in the BOUTIQUE template manager I see that there is the 2.11 version available; mine is 2.10.

If I try to download it I'm brought to apphone template... why? Is it correct?

Do I have to manually go to boutique template download and pick up the latest version from there?

Template name has no matter becasue you have to do it in same way in all of them. So in your case just download gk_boutique_J!25.zip, so pelase just download it from here https://www.gavick.com/download/joomla- ... tique.html

Hello,

I replaced ONLY the files mentioned in changes.txt (only them because I made overrides both in css and html/com_virtuemart):

Changed files:<br /><br />
- templateDetails.xml<br />
- admin/scripts.js<br />
- html/com_content/article/default.php<br />
- html/com_content/category/blog_item.php<br />
- html/com_content/featured/default_item.php<br />
- js/gk.scripts.js<br />
- js/ie7.equal.columns.js<br />
- js/menu.gkdropline.js<br />
- js/menu.gkmenu.js<br />
- lib/gk.const.php<br />
- lib/gk.framework.php<br />

The result is:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method GKTemplate::useCache() in /orafonew/templates/gk_boutique/layouts/blocks/head.php on line 55

Very nice isn't it? :evil:

I restored now the old template version of course...

Any help appreciated....
