Cant edit CSS after upgrade

Post by ollimax » Sat Jan 28, 2023 4:34 pm

My clubs website has just been upgraded from Joomla 3.XX to 4.2.6. At the same time the PHP version on the server has been updated to 8.0.27.
After installation I found out that the CSS does not match with the DOM and I need to make some cahnges in it. When I try edit CSS, I access it via Site Templates and open the file.
  • I get to a following url:
    /administrator/index.php?option=com_templates&view=template&id=10098&file=L2Nzcy90ZW1wbGF0ZS5jc3M%3D&isMedia=0
  • The page title is like following (translated from Finnish):
    Editing file _QQ_‎/templates/kallionkantaattikuoro/css/template.css_QQ_ in site template _QQ_kallionkantaattikuoro_QQ_.
  • I also get the following error message:
    3 arguments are required, 2 given
This happens with all site templates, also with the one I installed after the upgrade.

What is the issue here?

TIA for help!
Olli

You must get templates that are designed for J4.

Try the Cassiopeia template that are included in J4.

Have you updated the Finnish Language Pack?

Please select English when you log into the Administratator.

Did you upgrade from 3.10.11?

Please post your FPA. See Red Frame above.

If you ftp to the css-file you can download it and edit it and upload it again.

Thanks Per Yngve,

I seem to have the latest finnish language pack, but it is still not compatible with my Joomla version. However, you were right, this error does not appear when I change the language in english. So I can use english and wait for the finnish language pack update, if I then need it at all.

Lets hope this solves the problem for now.

Me and Kallio Cantata Choir says thank you!
