Welcome to the tutorial that will try to explain how to enable legacy support in
Joomla 1.5 so you will be able to install temlates, modules and components
written mainly for Joomla 1.0.x.
This will be short tutorial but I have noticed that many users don’t know how to
install templates, modules or components that are written for Joomla 1.0.x in
new Joomla 1.5.
Let’s start by loging in Joomla 1.5 backend with our admin credentials.
If you try to install template written for Joomla 1.0.x in Joomla 1.5 without
legacy support plugin enabled you will get error message like the one on the
following picture.

legacy support.
