Hi.

Well, changing from 3.2 to 4 is not an upgrade but rather a migration. Your customizations (overrides) will not work with JomSocial 4 as they ware made for 3.2.

So you'll need to implement them again in clear JS 4 layouts.

This article explains how to do proper overrides: documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Customizing_Template


- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

Hi.

Please, note that we don't work at weekends...

If you have enough php skills you may implement customizations yourself... if you know how and where. Honestly I can't answer your question as I don't know how skilled you are and what kind of customizations you have.

For sure customizations done in JS 3 need to be re-implemented in JS 4. Previous overrides will not work or even cause issues with version 4.
