I can't understand, why it is so difficult to set up an "official" list of modules that do work and those that don't work. There are tons of different threads dealing with the same things.
I can't understand, why it is that noone makes such a list - or lets the thread
become such a list, that could be easily sticky'ed, by NOT commenting back and forth, but just writing module names.
Mainly, I'm very puzzled that so few module developers have showed much interest in understanding WHY their modules don't work on XOOPS 2.2.
I mean - if 90% of the modules fail because of a small change we made in the core, then we could perhaps change it back or make a work-around that would mean that the 90% of modules worked again.
It could be that 90% of the modules that do fail, do so because they are not using the core as we want them to - which is not so easy to bring back - but we don't really know until developers (or interested users) check the modules and report back.
But people are only interested in black/white, works/doesn't work statements, it seems.
edit: And until we have finalised the release of a version that addresses the last quirks, fixing several compatibility issues, I doubt that this list would be of much use.
F.example, News 1.4 doesn't work 100% correctly with XOOPS 2.2.2 - but it will work on 2.2.3 that I am currently preparing.
