The Template looks good, as always.
However I have an issue with this. Joomla 1.7 is unstable and I use 1.5 as do many developers.
There aren't many modules and components readily available for 1.7.

You guys are releasing templates that many developers can't use because you are only making 1.7 versions.
Come on.

When will the 1.5 version be ready? Thanks.

We also are still using 1.5 for all sites simply because of the lack of module/component compatibility with 1.6/1.7. We have no intention of switching over to 1.7 until there is a whole hell of a lot more compatibility with the module/component we use regularly.

Joomla 1.7 unstable :huh:

For the last 3 days I have been working on a J1.7 site and it's been an absolute pleasure,every J1.6/J1.7 extension I have tried with it has worked fine and the amount of good extensions that are J1.5 only is becoming smaller by the day. The time has come to move way from J1.5,I certainly won't be using it for any new builds and I can assure you that J1.7 is very stable.

I'm agree too...about the Gavick choice. I cannot start a new project with 1.5! I just want to remember to all of you guys, that Joomla project will not give any support to 1.5 version starting January 2012, so the choice of Gavick to start the new project with the J1.7 version instead the 1.5 version is plausible. I just want to suggest to Gavick team to continue to release the J1.5 version up to December 2011.

I really recommend start migration to J!1.7, because at December Long Term Support for Joomla! 1.5 will finish and then your installations of Joomla! 1.5 will be really unsafe - a lot of script kiddies from Turkey are waiting for it ;)

Please also remember that The World News II will be our last template for Joomla! 1.5.

Thank you for the quick answer.. I am disappointed that the 1.5 version will not be available for around 3 more weeks. 1.5 is the joomla version for 1000's of people, some of whom do not want to move to 1.7. Some have complex existing websites and or want to use extensions that are only for 1.5 .. I suspect that ignoring most of your customers will prove costly. For developers a 1.5 template is what is needed now as they do not want to have to teach staff and customers how to work a new version. Bad move !

I suggest the j1.5 of templates should be released before j1.7.

I think j1.5 is the popular version that people use it.
And the j1.7 is one of the short term of joomla development project.

Seems to be some negativity regarding The World News II being released first for J1.7
While I understand there are some of you who have existing sites built with J1.5 who would like to use this template,surely you are better to bite the bullet and upgrade those sites to J1.7 now. All J1.5 sites are going to have to be upgraded at some point over the next 6 months and it's surely better to get it done and not leave it until J1.5 is no longer supported.

@Businesses

"For developers a 1.5 template is what is needed now as they do not want to have to teach staff and customers how to work a new version"

That just isn't true,J1.7 is not greatly different and anyone with a basic understanding of J1.5 should have no problems using J1.7

@chromerep

"And the j1.7 is one of the short term of joomla development project"

I think a lot of people are misunderstanding the recent change in Joomla releases,there will now be a new release every 6 months,the video below explains their future plans.

[video size=100 width=425 height=344 type=youtube]GCrbPZpek3s[/video]

At the end of the day J1.5 is the past and now is the time to start upgrading sites and building new sites with J1.7. As dziudek has pointed out "Please also remember that The World News II will be our last template for Joomla! 1.5"

I fully understand the decision Gavick have made and have no issues with it,they had to do it at some point and now is a good time to make the change.

I have been using Joomla since 2007 for clients, and have been a member of Gavick since 2008. I have never used another resource since. For the main reason that after comparing Gavick and other template companies Gavick templates had the least BUGS in their releases with Joomla 1.5.xx

I still do think that Gavick is still the best of the lot without a doubt. The third party plugins, components, and modules of other developers work great with Gavick, even the ones I have developed for myself.

There are great and unique components and modules out there that I still use for clients that have not been ported to Joomla 1.6 or 1.7 and some will never be and are not compatible with the new Joomla.

Where does that leave websites that are built around these components and modules if they upgrade to 1.7?

That being said. When Gavick started to go the way of Joomla 1.6 and started to port most of their templates to 1.6 I decided I would try to follow and trust the Gavick Team.

However I found many BUGS and compatibility issues where some of these templates were just unusable in a live site. Thus my current subscription is becoming of less value each day, and I have to spend 60 percent of my programming time trying to fix Gavick code and bugs by myself as support is slow and sometimes one never gets and answer to important issues and they are just ignored.

I have tested most of the Quick Start 1.6 Template Joomla versions, and the errors and bugs are many.

I am not complaining, I am just pointing out the facts.

Cheers.

Just one question. If you start a new project will you use Joomla 1.5? I don't think so because Joomla 1.5 will dead as happen with the 1.0 version. I know that many people are still using the 1.0 version but do you really want to start a new project knowing that Joomla project will not offer you any security release starting January 2012? I know that the version 1.7 is a short term release and that in January will be released a new version, but starting from the 1.6 release you can update to 1.7, 1.8 and so on in 1 click. The real problem is the migration from 1.5 to 1.6, so my opinion is that you guys should start to think to migrate your old website to 1.7 or 1.8 (long term release) in January and start to use the 1.7 version for your new project. Why? Starting from the 1.6, Joomla project will release a new version every 6 months. From my perspective, start a new project using the 1.5 version is a suicide. Starting from January 2012, the security of all Joomla 1.5 site will be a problem as the joomla project will not give anymore support.

This is the best template released by Gavick Team. The colors are light, very clean, very professional. I am grateful that this isn't another black color theme.

Would be great if Gavick team creates Community template using light colors with Jomsocial.
