Hello super joomlers!

If you are like me and like using the latest and greatest stuff, you might have tried to install Joomla! 4.x-dev on your computer. But maybe you had the same issue than I had. Either on frontend and backend modules won't show up. However no prominent error pops up. An SQL query to the rescue! Here it is:

UPDATE `#__modules` SET `publish_down` = '0000-00-00 00:00:00' WHERE 1=1;
UPDATE `#__content` SET `publish_down` = '0000-00-00 00:00:00' WHERE 1=1;

At first sight, the second query is not required. But just in case the articles won't show up, you can execute the second query. To do this you can use tools like phpMyAdmin, adminer, Sequel Pro, HeidiSql or MySQL Workbench.
Take care super joomlers
