Joomla 5 compatibility

[JSW3]

hey folks, is the latest joomla plugin compatible with joomla 5? when running the update check it tells me that the latest one (10-18-2023 ) may cause issues, has any testing been done?

A compatible version for Joomla 5 will be released this month, officials say.

Which year?

On a more serious note, has someone tested this? Is it "production" ready?:

Hi there,
As you might be aware, in Joomla 5 you can/should disable the Backward Compatibility plugin. More information about this on
https://magazine.joomla.org/all-iss...ility-plugin-and-why-you-should-switch-it-off

Any extension which works on J5 without requiring the Backward Compatibility plugin is actually J6-ready.

I have just downloaded the latest J5 package from
https://github.com/litespeedtech/lscache-joomla/tree/master/Joomla5/package
but there are still 2 errors which crash the site when disabling the Backward Compatibility plugin:

1.
Attempted to load class "JModuleHelper" from the global namespace.
Did you forget a "use" statement?
in /home/smeddzxm/public_html/administrator/modules/mod_lscache_purge/mod_lscache_purge.php (line 5)

require JModuleHelper::getLayoutPath('mod_lscache_purge', $params->get('layout', 'default'));

2.
Class "JComponentHelper" not found
JROOT/plugins/system/lscache/lscache.php:60

As soon as this is fixed I will be happy to test the new version
And so does @serge_web54 ao
Txs!

You should publish your post at LiteSpeed Slack, because this forum isn't frequently visited by the developer who is responsible for LiteSpeed cache plugin for Joomla.

You should follow my recommendation as well.
