Hi Since upgrading to Joomla 4 (Norr Competition 2.0.2) we have not been able to save changes to NorrCompetion options. On clicking save in the admin screen the screen returns to the main Joomla options - so it looks as though the save is failing. I have tried editing administrator/components/com_competition/config.xml directly to change the parameter that I want to alter but it appears that this is not being read. For example, if I var_dump($itemParams) in layouts/default/tmpl/participant.php changes that I have made in the main administrator/components/com_competition/config.xml file don't appear in $itemParams. Switching on debug and changing error reporting to maximimum doesn't produce anything helpful as far as I can tell What am I missing here? It feels like something obvious but I can't see it. Thanks, Zoë

PS - I was looking in the wrong place. It's the update to com_competition paramaters in jos_extensions that fails and I guess that this is where the mudule gets it's parameters from not the config.xml file.

Hi Dmitrijs
Thank you! I tested that on a local copy on my laptop and it fixes it. I don't have any control over the php.ini file on the server but will submit a request to ask them if we can have max_input_vars increased. The default seems to be 1000 - I set it to 2000 which seems to work fine.

Hi - thanks, now fixed on the main sites using .user.ini (which I didn't know about :-/). Happy to close this, Thanks again,
Zoë
