Progress Report
Upgrading Joomla 6, and development of TDOC stuff in Joomla 6
- 19th July 2026. Upgraded to 6.1.2. All is NOW Ok. Restored the two hacked sites after upgrading to 6.1.2 locally, repaired one site Ok.
To read the whole saga is click here. - 18th June 2026 HACKED. UnaccountableScotland.org.uk and AccountabilityScotland.org.uk in particular.
- 27th May 2026: Upgraded to 6.1.1. All is Ok.
- 22nd April 2026: Upgraded to 6.1.0. All is Ok.
- 21st April 2026: Upgraded to 6.0.3. All is Ok. The Favicon shambles continues. The ..\media\system\images directory is not "safe" from being updated. The two TDOC addons are fine but require their update xml's to be updated on the "to do" list.
- 20th February 2026: Upgraded to 6.0.3. All is Ok. However the Cassiopeia's icons are not displaying as they did prior to upgrade on the two sites upgraded, but they do still appear on mobiles and some other browsers. There is still nowhere obvious to upload fabicon.ico's, so a manual upload via the web host's control panel is required. . . . shambles.
TDOC Support
Getting Support
There are two items in the TDOC Stable for Joomla. Both are very simple - they are:
- TDOC Facebook Display - mod_tdoc_fbk - a module which is designed to show a facebook page in a sidebar, and
- TDOC Google Map - {tdocgmap} - a plugin which is designed to show one or more kml files rendered in a GoogleMap by Google in your article or category.
We upgraded the tdocplus.co.uk domain to https: This has NOT broken the upgrade links for either of the two TDOC extensions.
Please email

Google Map - Code Version 5.5
Development Update - 1st May 2026 - Email from GoogleMaps
Hello Google Maps Platform customer,
This communication informs you about the upcoming deprecation of the KmlLayer class in the Maps JavaScript API and provides the necessary resources for transitioning your applications to modern alternatives.
What you need to know
The KmlLayer functionality in the Maps JavaScript API will no longer be supported. This feature is deprecated as of today, and will be made unavailable in version 3.66 of the Maps JavaScript API, releasing in August 2026. You can keep using the KML Layer until May 2027, by explicitly using Maps JavaScript API versions that still support it.
Facebook Display
3rd May 2024 - With assistance form Robbie J, the module is now Joomla 5 Compatible at version 5.3.1.
5th January 2021 - The bug in Google Chrome is now fixed for Windows 11,10, and 8.
Sadly Chrome no longer upgrade for Windows 7 - so that remains broken.
We upgraded the tdocplus.co.uk domain to https: This has NOT broken the upgrade links for the extension - which work fine.
