We are getting the following error when trying to create a new blog post in the backend AFTER UPGRADING JOOMLA TO 3.x:

Fatal error: Declaration of EasyBlogTableMediaManager::bind() must be compatible with JTableInterface::bind($src, $ignore = Array) in /home/speedu5/public_html/administrator/components/com_easyblog/tables/mediamanager.php on line 46

EasyBlog version 3.81
Joomla version 3.6.5 (soon to upgrade to 3.7x)

What is the minimum version of EasyBlog that will run on J 3.7.x?
What issues will we encounter upgrading to EasyBlog 5.x?
Hi Paul,

As you're using older version of EasyBlog (v3.81) with Joomla 3.x it will hit some compatibility issue
What is the minimum version of EasyBlog that will run on J 3.7.x?

-> The minimum version of EasyBlog to run perfectly on J3.7 is EasyBlog 5.x

What issues will we encounter upgrading to EasyBlog 5.x?

-> There will no issue if you upgrade to EasyBlog 5.x

I tried hitting the Updater, but I get this error:

Warning

Space required after the Public Identifier
SystemLiteral " or ' expected
SYSTEM or PUBLIC, the URI is missing
Opening and ending tag mismatch: hr line 7 and body
Opening and ending tag mismatch: body line 4 and html
Premature end of data in tag html line 2

Installed version: 3.8.14576

Latest available version:

You are already running on the latest version

Any suggestions?

I do want to upgrade, but if I do it this way, will I lose all of the current blogs and hit counts and likes and comments?

Hi Paul,
You will not loose those blog data as they are stored in the database. With that being said, always remember to backup your site and database as a precaution before performing upgrades.
