All our Joomla! extensions are ready for Joomla! 5 (except for GeoTax for J2Store) with native support. Please note: It is important to update our extensions before updating Joomla! itself.
On the way to native support, our extensions needed the backward compatibility plugin to be enabled. Please have a look at the table below to check for your installed version.
With the introduction of native support, we dropped support for Joomla! 3 versions smaller than 3.9.
Joomla! 5 support has been added to our extensions since the following versions:
| Joomla Extension Aimy... | Version with B/C plugin | Version with native support |
|---|---|---|
| Sitemap | ✓ 32.4 | ✓ 34.0 |
| Speed Optimization | ✓ 19.6 | ✓ 20.0 |
| Canonical | ✓ 27.0 | ✓ 28.0 |
| IndexNow | ✓ 4.1 | ✓ 5.0 |
| Video Embedder | ✓ 17.2 | ✓ 18.0 |
| Responsive Iframes | ✓ 6.1 | ✓ 7.0 |
| Captcha-Less Form Guard | ✓ 13.1 | ✓ 15.0 |
| H1 Heading | ✓ 5.3 | ✓ 6.0 |

What does "Joomla! 5 (B/C Plugin)" mean?
In the Joomla! extensions directory you will find compatibility for Joomla! 5 and Joomla 5 (B/C Plugin). What does that mean?
The B/C plugin is already installed and activated in your Joomla! 5 installation. It enables "backward compatibilty" for code that was already used in Joomla! 3 and 4. Without the plugin, legacy methods are no longer available and plugins that use them do no longer work.
Newly written or reworked extensions can have native Joomla! 5 compatibility. In most cases where you find an extension that is ready for multiple Joomla! versions, the B/C plugin will be needed.
