Community Builder 2.6.3 can be freely downloaded by all registered members

 

We just released Community Builder 2.6.3, with two improvements and 9 fixes, mainly for all discovered and known compatibility issues for Joomla 4.0 while keeping Joomla 3.10 compatibility.

CB 2.6.3 contains 7 minor compatibility fixes for Joomla 4.0 and 2 minor bug fixes, and has 2 major improvements to the integrated private messaging system (PMS).

The PMS system now has a message reporting function and an important privacy improvement. Users can now report messages to moderators and Super-administrators can now only see system messages and messages to all users in the Joomla administration.

Details can be found in the full CB 2.6.3 changelog.

Community Builder 2.6.3 is a highly recommended upgrade for all CB sites on Joomla 3.x and 4.0.

Unless you are just upgrading from 2.6.1 or 2.6.2, as always, you should first test on a cloned environment before upgrading your production site.

Our demo website has already been updated to Community Builder 2.6.3, so you can see it in action along will all our Joomlapolis add-ons.

Keep your hosting and Joomla up to date for next Community Builder 2.7!

Our next planed release, Community Builder 2.7, will be released soon. As already announced in CB 2.6.0, CB 2.6.1 and CB 2.6.2 news, CB 2.7 will require PHP 7.4+ and MySql 5.6+. The upgrade/install process will check these requirements.

As Joomla 3.10 is now the only maintained 3.x series and a simple one-click backwards compatible upgrade from Joomla 3.9.x, we are revisiting our Joomla requirement for next Community Builder 2.7 to Joomla 3.10 (up from now unmaintained 3.9 series 3.9.0, released 3 years ago).
