Installation

Error: 'Could not create directory, Warning! Failed to move file'


Check your directory premissions:
'help' > 'System info' > 'Directory Permissions'
All least these folders should be writeable:

* administrator/components/
* administrator/language/en-GB/
* components/
* plugins/
* plugins/content/
* plugins/system/
* plugins/user/
* tmp/

You can also enable the FTP layer and try to install again.

Error: 'Path does not point to a valid folder' 'Could not find a Joomla! XML setup file' 'File...does not exist'

You are probably dealing with a corrupt download. Both Symantec and McAfee are known to corrupt downloads with certain settings. They can also corrupt the extensions send and received by email. So try this: go to the download area, disable the firewall/virusscanner, download the file, enable the firewall/virusscanner.

Known issues

How to really hide item titles?

In page-and-Items you have the option to hide the title. This will take the title out of its containing tag, but can not prevent Joomla from outputting the empty tag on the page.

Here is a workaround with CSS.

There are plugin-tags in the output when content is displayed in a module

To render plugin-code, Joomla needs to render the content using the content-plugins. In Joomla, the content of modules is normally not rendered with the content-plugins. But there are modules, which render with the plugins. mod_placehere seems to be one of those that does the job.

Image is not uploaded after saving an image in a fieldtype or itemtype

The size of the image might be too big. Check your servers php settings for 'upload_max_filesize'. See administrator > 'Site' > 'System Information' > 'PHP Information' and search for 'upload_max_filesize'.
