If you ever suggested an idea for JomSocial development, you have most likely been aware that we used Uservoice for over seven years. All those years, we had an enjoyable ride with this platform and came up with most of our new features by reading your suggestions and paying attention to which ones got the most votes, but it always felt like it is a part of some other system, and administering it was proven to be hard process.

Version 4.1.3 is a bugfix release which addresses all the bugs reported in the forum. It also brings back more control over events and introduces a new banning feature. You can see the full list of fixes and improvements in our 4.1.3 changelog.

Version 4.1.2 adds the photo uploading feature to the editor, and includes bug fixes reported since the previous version.

Today Joomla released an important security patch and all Joomla users should immediately upgrade. This is a security release for the 3.x series of Joomla which addresses a critical security vulnerability.

Version 4.1.1 is a bugfix release with a focus on stability and under the hood improvements.
