How to make the theme compatible with the current elgg version

Hi,

I currently running elgg v1.7.11. There is one theme that i use is seem not fully compatible with the elgg version.

In the dashboard, the js seem not working. The content in each section such as The wire, the activity are not showing. They only showing a running circle which mean it can't load the content.

Also, I also tried the themes that compatible up to v1.7, but somehow they are not working too. They are nothing changes on the theme when I enabled the theme at the Tool Adminstration page.

Thanks.

 

 

  • Themes usually (an often unnecessarily) override the page_elements/header view and so override changes to core when we update JS paths. The first thing to do if a theme breaks JS is to compare its page_elements/header view with the core one and make sure the JS paths are the same.
