Sep

2017


If you've recently updated your Joomla site to version 3.8 you will notice that your main menu has disappeared. There was a class name change that stopped our Vertex menu from working. We have updated our patch to fix this issue and all of our templates and site shapers also are now running the latest version of Vertex version 4.2. If you need the patch for your website simply reinstall the latest patch here and main menu will show up again:

Over the last few weeks we have been working hard at updating all of our responsive site shapers to the newest Joomla 3.5.1, and we are happy to announce that this project is now complete! So now all brand new installations will be running the latest software updates right from the start. Of course, anyone already running Joomla can update Joomla at any time as well directly form the backend of Joomla. Joomla 3.5 brings a lot of great new features and harnesses the power and speed of php7! If you haven't tried out Joomla 3.5 yet, our Joomla 3 products are fully compatible with this latest version and we suggest upgrading today to receive all the latest upgrades and security updates.

S5 Media Player V2 Security Update

Apr
26,
2016


We have recently discovered a security vulnerability in our S5 Media Player V2 plugin that could potentially allow someone to download unintended files, including system files, through it's download feature which is intended for mp3 files. This affects all verions 2.2 and lower. The latest 2.3 version has been updated to fix this issue and can be downloaded at the link below. We do not use this plugin very often and is included in our Game World and Risen Hope site shapers; which have also been updated to the latest versions. If you are unsure if you use this plugin simply search for "S5 Media Player" in Joomla's Plugin Manager to verify.
