Hi

I've just updated to Joomla 2.5.6 and now the site is completely broken. Home page tabs work ok, but if you click on other pages, tabs do not work at all and site completely locks up, ie no links work at all and cannot click anything. Any ideas what is wrong?

Thanks

Hi

All our templates from Sep 2010 are updated to work with last joomla 2.5 version.
Did you update also the template files?
Can you show us your website?

No I didn't! I was hoping I could just update Joomla. It seems I will have to do a lot more work than I hoped as updating the template will mean at least a days work, as I have made quite a few mods.

Always follow our respective updates releases

You can check on the template parameters if there's any update available or please visit this page with some regularity.

Important recommendation
If you are making your own customization on theme style, i strongly recommend that you enable the use of css override on template parameters > advanced settings and them place all you css on that file ../css/override.css.
This way you will have less work on updates without ruin your work.

Cheers

is it possible to apply the new template without having to uninstall the old template first?

Yes it should not be a problem.
Using FTP upload and replace files.
But first you should save the template settings because you might need to rebuild your template settings.

Don't forget to replace also the template language file on ../language/en-GB/
