JomSocial 3.2.1.6 is now available

With the release of the JomSocial 4 beta just around the corner, we’ve just got time for one final bugfix release for 3.2.1.

There are no known security issues in this release, but we do advise you to update your sites as it does include some important privacy and features patches. To see the full list of fixes and improvements please visit the changelog page.

This release ends the bug fixing for 3.2 series (unless some major security flaw is discovered). The next bug fixes will be for version 4.

What's New?

As a bugfix release, 3.2.1.6 brings no major new features. We focused on fixing avatar and cover issues with external storage, and improving the overall stability of the component.
