Well, changing from 3.2 to 4 is not an upgrade but rather a migration. Your customizations (overrides) will not work with JomSocial 4 as they ware made for 3.2.
So you'll need to implement them again in clear JS 4 layouts.
- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

i actually hired a developer to customized the site for me, please can i implement the customization again myself in js4 layouts or do i have to hire another developer again to help me do that?
If you have enough php skills you may implement customizations yourself... if you know how and where. Honestly I can't answer your question as I don't know how skilled you are and what kind of customizations you have.
For sure customizations done in JS 3 need to be re-implemented in JS 4. Previous overrides will not work or even cause issues with version 4.
