Once a ceiling (lathe type) has been replaced by plasterboard how do you hang the light fittings?

You fix into a nearby joist.

If that is not possible you fit a wooden noggin between two joists, and fix to that.

If that is not possible you will have to rely on plasterboard fixings, which are not particularly good. They are no good for heavy fittings.
 
Cheers, I think the noggin between the joists would be the option for me.
