Most of the functionality of the plugin has gone it still shows avatars, points and achievements but nothing else. It also stops front end admin popup panel from saving and closing correctly. I have tested the plugin on a uncompressed site and no cdn with a fresh joomla 3,3,3 and only es installed and it has the some issues. The app seems to work okay but I would love to see thumbnails included in the post.
Hello Sam,

Hm, sorry but not really sure what "functionality" are you referring to here. Can you please advise?

Hi Mark
the following no longer show in the k2 articles.

Display Follow Author
Display Add As Friend

The rest work fine.

Hello Sam,

I am sorry for the late reply.
After a extensive debugging, we found out that K2 component doesn't triggered this function: onK2UserDisplay(). It is because, I believe the user who created the K2 article is not a listed as user in this table: #_k2_users. In order for our plugin to work, we need this function to be triggered by K2 and if not, we can't do anything. Can you check this table whether this user is in this or not. If not, you need to login in the frontend using this user, then, K2 will create a new row for this user. I hope this can resolve this issue.

Hope this will help.
Thanks.

Hmmm the users are listed in the k2 user table and the articles where generated from the users frontend. Keep in mind that all functions were working. I will look deeper into the code for a solution.
