Hello everybody,
I love Phoca premiere template j5. Thank you Jan for the great design.
It works good, but I have a few questions about updating it to a newer version.
I tested it locally on my computer using WAMP.
I used: Joomla 5.3.2, Phoca Cart 5.2.0,
I have phoca_premiere 5.0.12. template intalled before and newer version is 5.0.13.
System dashboard => Templates gave me the following information:
version 5.0 05/05 "up to date"
1. Do I have to install it manually all the time or something wrong with settings of my system?
So I decided to install 5.0.13. template manually: Admin => Extensions => Install and I pointed to
phoca_premiere 5.0.13. and it was installed successfully based on the system installation messages. However System dashboard => Templates gave me the same following information:
version 5.0 05/05 "up to date"
2. Where can I find right information about what version of the phoca_premiere template installed?
3. Is it any other ways to install template?
Can you help me?
Thank you in advance.

Re: Update of Phoca premiere template to a newer version
Hi,
I also don't know any way to see directly in backend which version is installed.
However, you can see it by the installed language file. In version 5.0.13, the six strings marked in the screenshot have been added compared to version 5.0.12.
So if you find these six strings in this file:
/languages/en-GB/tpl_phoca_premiere.ini
version 5.0.13 is installed.

Kind regards,
Benno

Thank you Benno for a quick response.
I checked the file tpl_phoca_premiere.ini as you recommended. It looks like the installation of version 5.0.13 was successful, because I found the new lines that you mentioned. What do you think, may be the version number should be updated in the templateDetails.xml. Now it stay in both cases like the following:
<name>phoca_premiere</name>
<version>5.0</version>
Thank you again,

Re: Update of Phoca premiere template to a newer version
Hi, there is a problem inside the template package.
- the template package (pkg) has correct version 5.0.13
- the template inside this package has wrong version 5.0
I will fix it in next version, for now the correct version number should be displayed in the package.
