Hello!

This minor release addresses some issues that were reported by clients in mooCommunity and also that our staffs found during testing plugins. We’ve also included some minor improvements to current features.

Improvements Made:

1. Added mulitple profile types options: Profile types allows you to have different sets of Profile Questions depending on which Profile Type is chosen upon signup. One example of a situation where this would be useful is if you had a network for “Fan” and “Musicians”. “Fans” might have a “First Name” and a “Last Name” but you might want “Musicians” to fill out a “Band/Artist Name” instead.
2. Added “force login” option into all core modules.
3. Added “Export to CSV” button into user manager page. You can export all your members into csv format and then import theme into other systems such as email markting tool….for other purposes.
4. Now, you can translate the lable of custom fields.
5. Added sort option for custom fields so that you can sort them follow your needs.
6. Added option to hide invite friends into system setting. This is useful setting if you want to setup a closed/invite only social network.
7. Added option for admin to create new user in admincp.
8. Removed all group and event feeds out of home page feed and profile feed. You only can see updates from joined events and groups
9. Redirect user to home page after block a user.
10. Tested amazon s3 and php7 for all default plugins.

Fixed Issues:

1. Show warning and cannot direct to PayPal gateway when input empty line to Ban IP field.

Therefore, if you are using any add-ons, please make sure you do not switch your server to php7 and enable s3 after upgrading your site to this new version until all of them are fully tested with s3 and php7.

mooSocial just got a new update! We are proud to let you know the availability of mooSocial version 2.6.0. The theme of this version is Cloud, Speed and more Speed. Along with few minor updates and bug fixes, this version’s major improvements are Remote Cloud Storage, Content Delivery Network and PHP 7 Compatibility.

Amazon Simple Storage Service (AWS S3) is now supported. Scale your site storage into the cloud beyond your server’s network speed and local storage capacity. With S3 designed to deliver 99.999999999% durability, 99.99% availability and scale past trillions of objects worldwide, you no longer need to worry about data loss or server’s limitation. You can now focus on growing your mooSocial community with mega contents and stop worrying where they should be stored.

Turn up the speed of your mooSocial community site with Amazon CloudFront Content Delivery Network (CDN). CDN is now supported! It works seamlessly with S3 cloud storage or local storage. Using CDN to bring your data closer to your users will accelerate your site’s delivery. Regardless how geographically dispersed your users are, requests for your content are automatically routed to the nearest CloudFront’s edge location, so content is delivered with the best possible performance. With CDN, your site is practically running nearby of your users.

mooSocial run efficient and much faster with PHP 7. Long were the days of PHP 6. Wait… was there…?!? It is estimated that PHP 7 offers a 100 percent improvement in performance speed over PHP 5.6. PHP7 places substantially less demands on servers. Give mooSocial a try on PHP7, you will see a world of improvement on speed.
