K2 Upgrade to Joomla 4+ - Membership Pro was created by #Gannclub
This has bugged me for a while and I am not a fan of reverting back to Joomla core articles. I would rather use Wordpress than use core, but I'd still rather use membership pro and with K2.

For anyone wanting to move past Joomla 3 with K2, there are are a few options now. however none have evolved beyond what K2 was 15 years ago.

I used Grok Build to help me rewrite a K2 system with a few new features, I haven't tested it beyond Joomla 4 yet, but it has been written for Joomla 5 structures.
  • Advanced Comment system
  • Built in Video & Image Gallery
  • CSS styler from the back-end and CSS restorer on upgrade (these used to be overwritten in K2)
  • Front end editing with more user friendly K2 settings, not a page of text like it used to be
  • Front end editing of Categories, styling and ordering.
  • Remote Migrate function where if its a fresh install you can connect to your existing Joomla 3 site and migrate the K3 tables across in full and automatically updates them to match the new platform, also pulls all of the images from your page to the new install that are either listed in the tables or content. - This is not 100%, but 98%
Everything else mostly remains the same. I have only just gotten to the point where I can test it fully and utilise it. 

Looking for anyone else who might want to test it with me. I can only upload 2MB on here and it is just over, but comment on here if your interested - I can send a link for it.

Oh and comment notification system

 
Dynamic layouts, can save default layouts and set media, pull media from articles if no gallery or main image is set per original K2
