I think the latest version, with the eg_green etc templates, was built on Joomla 1.5.3 whatever the zip file was called. Why not get the new version built on Joomla 1.5.9 and just apply the eg_green template?

In the UK it is easy to verify that someone is working in education as their email will be of the form ..sch.uk is there a similar scheme elsewhere? This would be a way of supplying a package to education people. Mike

Apparently there were copyright issues with some of the extensions in this package. Although the package was 'legal' for educational use, the download could be accessed by anyone and there was no way of ensuring that it was not being used on non-educational sites. I have read reports that some people were re-selling the package for upwards of £100 even to schools!

It's nice to know you have no problems. I have installed both 1.5.3 and 1.5.4 on each server more than once, I have configured automatically and I have configured manually but all to no avail. I can get 1.5.4 working on my local server so I don't think it's anything I am doing. As I can get 1.5.2 working on my remote servers my original question was, can I move the school bits easily from the 1.5.3 version and put them on 1.5.2. Is it as easy as copying the templates folder and the joomla.sql file over. Changed my FTP client and it all went right!

I have a problem with any version of joomla over 1.5.2, it just won't install on my host either linux or windows based but both using PLesk 8.3. Is it possible to move all the school related bits to version 1.5.2?
