Hi.

I found a compatibility issue with the Joomla component named "Crowdfunding Platform" from http://itprism.com
This extension allows me to create crowdfunding campaigns in my website.
If I enable the EasyDiscuss Content plugin I get an error when I try to create a new campaign.
I temporary solved this issue by editing easydiscuss.php found in the directory of the ED Content plugin.
at line 73, I entered this code:

if ($this->extension == 'com_crowdfunding') {
return;
}

It is useful for me to avoid the loading of ED plugin in the Crowdfunding Platform views.

What do you think about?


Thank you and have a nice day!
I've checked the code, by right it shouldn't pass through that line of code, you can check my attached screenshot below.

Perhaps you can share with me how to create campaign so I can check further on this?

Yes, if you want to try you can create a campaign here: https://www.eupuru.eu/test/nuovo-progetto-eufund
It's my test environment and here you can reproduce the issue.
The production link (where my code seems to work) is the same but without /test/ in the above url.

In order to create a campaign you have to login. You can use these credentials:

username: xxxx
password: xxxx

Try download this file and replace into this following file and see how it goes?

JoomlaFolder/plugins/content/easydiscuss/easydiscuss.php

Ok, it seems to work correctly without any conflict! Thank you!
Just a little question: I have to replace the file after every EasyDiscuss update or you will add/merge this change in the new releases?

Nope, I already log this ticket into our issue tracker, our developer will take a look and apply the proper fix in the next release version.
