jcomments gives Fatal Error - [Not a jDownloads bug]

[carin]

I installed jcomments and enabled it in the jd config. jcomments works fine on a standard Joomla article but on a download page this comes up:

Notice: Use of undefined constant catid - assumed 'catid' in components/com_jdownloads/helpers/jdownloadshelper.php on line 241

Notice: Use of undefined constant link - assumed 'link' in components/com_jdownloads/helpers/jdownloadshelper.php on line 241

I know that this has worked good before (with jD 2.5), but perhaps has changed JComments somethings.
I will check this.

Okay. I have installed the newest version.
It is a bug in the JComments file as the application.php was moved to a other location in Joomla 3.2.

Code Select Expand

if (!isset($cache[$key])) {
require_once(JPATH_SITE . '/includes/application.php');

Read this and use the posted fix:
http://www.joomlatune.com/forum/index.php?topic=8521.0

The other posted 'Notices' are only viewed because your Joomla error settings are not set to 'default' but are also not critical.

Edit:
The notices are now also fixed.

Edit 2:
you can alternate also change the path in the jComments file to:

Code Select Expand

require_once(JPATH_SITE .'/libraries/legacy/application/application.php');
