CMS

JReviews is compatible with:

  • Joomla! 3.5.x
  • WordPress 4.5.x

Furthermore, new releases of JReviews are only tested with the latest stable version of Joomla and so we can only guarantee compatibility with those versions at any given time.

PHP

Required PHP Version: 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6.
Required PHP Extensions: json, mbstring, curl, bcmath (most servers have them installed by default).

upload_max_filesize in php.ini must be higher than 2M (for installation files to upload successfully).

ionCube

IonCube loader needs to be installed and enabled on your server. On some hosting packages it is enabled by default. The loader version must be 4.4 or higher. Version 4.6.0 is known to have issues and should be avoided.

If ionCube is not enabled on your server, you can ask your host to install it for you, or you can do that yourself:

  1. Download loaders packgage from ionCube website.
  2. Upload ioncube_loader_lin_5.4.so file (if your server uses PHP 5.4) or ioncube_loader_lin_5.5.so file (if your server uses PHP 5.5) anywhere in your joomla folder.
  3. Create the /administrator/php.ini file and add this line (use the correct path to the ioncube file where you uploaded it):
zend_extension=/path/to/ioncube/folder/ioncube_loader_lin_5.4.so

Note: If you are having troubles installing ioncube, download loader-wizard.zip file, extract the zip and place the loader-wizard.php file into the root of your site. Run that file and it will guide you through the installation process.
