The k2 tools module that I have installed on my Joomla 3.3.0 website is not working. All the other parts of the K2 package seem to work just fine but this one. I need this as I would like to use the calendar and tag cloud functionality especially. I assume there may be something wrong with the install of these files but don't know how to fix it.

When I go to create a new k2 tools module, I do not get the right interface like i have seen described on tutorials, just the basic description of what the module does.

Try installing K2's latest version. Do not uninstall K2, just install it on top.

Hello,

I ended up getting one of our developers to help with this who helped reinstall just the K2 tools module files.

After much scrolling through the files, he was able to compare the two .xml files which were in the K2 tools module folder. Turned out the one being read was incorrect, it had 'param' tags instead of 'field' tags. He renamed the correct .xml file version so this could be picked up by the site, and the other one would be ignored

This feature is now working perfectly and is fab, so thanks K2 but perhaps check out why there was the dodgy file in there in the first place?

I hope this helps further readers.

Are you sure you used K2's latest version?

Perhaps not.

The K2 files came with a template package, which I have found had quite a lot of out of date extensions so this wouldn't surprise me.

Please see attached the K2 zip folder for reference.

Thanks

Abi

I can't see the attachment, but it doesn't really matter.
Once you update everything will work fine. Just make sure your template supports newer versions of K2.
