Joomla!
3.4.0
Some modules installed in Joomla 3.4 and higher (that worked in Joomla 3.3.6) show an error when attempting to edit.
Errors Reported[edit]
Module XML data not available when going to edit module (with no fields appearing).
Versions Affected[edit]
What is the Cause?[edit]
Modules that have capital letters in their elements are now forced to lowercase during module installs (as a result of some standardisation in the installer). This results in case-sensitive systems with the XML file being unable to be found.
How to Fix[edit]
Ensure the module element
<filename module="mod_articles_category">mod_articles_category.php</filename>
has no capital letters (as well as the appropriate XML file).
