Hi,
I’m trying to install Brand Central and I’m getting a broken package error in Concrete. I’m using version 9.1.1 of Concrete. I’ve tried both the master version and 0.6.8. Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Karen
Hi @kcmelink
What is the exact error broken package error? I’ll ask Engineering about installation and 9.1.1 Brand Central.

Hi Jes,
Thank you for your help. I took a screenshot of the error and I get the same for either version.
Thanks again,
Karen
How are you adding the package? The handle shouldn’t be brand_central-master.

i Just downloaded this from github. After unzipping you have a folder named brand_central-master with all of the package files inside it. I believe this folder should be renamed brand_central (remove -master) and it should work

Thank you so much enlil for your help. I removed -master and it installed without a problem.
Thanks @enlil ! I’m so used to Composer that I didn’t even think about GitHub changing the name to include the branch. Makes perfect sense, though.
Hi,
I am trying to get this set up but get the following error when trying to add collection.
i have downloaded and installed the master version.
Argument 2 passed to Concrete\Core\Express\Form\Validator\AbstractValidator::validate() must be an instance of Concrete\Core\Entity\Express\Entry or null, int given, called in /home/xxx/waitoc.media/packages/brand_central/controllers/single_page/collections.php on line 54
I have tried with 9.1.1 and also 9.2.1.

Hi Colin,
Did you ever figure this out? I get the same error in 9.1.3… I assume Brand Central is not compatible with 9.1 yet.
Hi,
I gave up after trying various versions of Concrete/Brand Central. There were way too many bugs and it would have required quite a bit of work. It was really just for me to see if it was of use to some of my clients and I may have another look when I have some spare time.
I haven’t taken a look at this project in a while, but I would suggest you all take a look at INSTALL.md when you try out Brand Central. It clearly states that the versions you are trying are not supported.
That being said, I know that there has been work done to make it work on PHP 8 and 9.1, but those changes did not involve trying to install from scratch. Try installing commit f2e8520 with the versions mentioned in the documentation above, then try updating to the latest commit on master.
