Akeeba Ticket System 4.0.0 Stable

Released on: 2021-03-02 08:44 CST

What's new?

New backend and frontend frameworks. This version of our software has been rewritten using the new versions of our FOF (backend) and FEF (frontend) frameworks. The new framework versions load faster, unify our common CSS and JavaScript among all of our extensions, allow us to load all JavaScript defered for better performance and help us provide a much better experience on the upcoming Joomla 4 version.

View templates are now stored in the tmpl folder instead of ViewTemplates. This change makes it possible to make template overrides for our software in Joomla 4's template manager. Template overrides are still stored in the same location in your template.

Speed improvements. We have made changes in the backend code and the view templates to make the ticket pages much faster. Depending on the size of your site and the number of posts per ticket you will see a speed improvement between 20% and 50% on the single ticket view pages. Due to the nature of some of the changes you will need to review your template overrides.

Remove AlphaUserPoints integration. The AlphaUserPoints extension seems to be abandoned since 2017 and the developer has disappeared.

Bug fixes and minor improvements. Please take a look at the CHANGELOG below.
