-- HikaShop version -- : 2.6.4
-- Joomla version -- : 3.6.4

Hi,

I'm updating the website for a client from Joomla 2.5 to 3.6. Hikashop is used in this website, and I'm testing the update now. Some issues already solved, but as I go through the checkout page and select payment and delivery and click to proceed, I get an error about mootools not being present. Ofcourse I'm aware that mootools isn't used in Joomla any more, but I suspect there must be some configuration issue from the old site saying that the checkout proces should use mootools. I can't seem to find the right place where this config option would be. Can you help me with this?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Mootools is still used by the Joomla library for several things. For example, if you use the popup system of Joomla, it will load the mootools library that is still in Joomla 3.x and it will use it to display the popups.
And HikaShop can use the Joomla popup system based on how you configure it.
But that shouldn't be a problem. Joomla will load mootools and display it just fine on Joomla 3.6 when necessary.
So the problem seems to be that you have something on your website which automatically removes mootools from the page. Probably a system plugin or the template can have such option.
For example the jQuery Easy plugin has an option to remove mootoools (but if you have code that uses it, then it creates an error).
