Which extension is this? Please give us a link to JED or the developer's page.

Re: GitHub download draw a blank
At github you have the option to download the code as zip.
that does not support the Joomla update function?
However, do you want to install 5 year old code of a module that does not support the Joomla update function?
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Re: GitHub download draw a blank
Why is such an extension still listed in JED?

Much appreciate all your help .. AGAIN.
I think as a simple fast counter it still work I think even in Jm 4 .. to be confirmed. I use it in infrequently in occasional odd spot.

Re: GitHub download draw a blank
The Joomla update requirement is applicable only to new extensions, AFAIK.
If an extension does not work out-of-the-box in a currently supported version of Joomla, the extension should be reported, first to the developer separately, and if there is no response, to the JED team, by using the Report button in the JED entry.

Re: GitHub download draw a blank
I had a quick look at the source code. The source code seems to have been designed for J! 2.5 and does not conform to J! 3.8 coding standards (as a minimum). I would not recommend this extension in J! 4 in its present form.
