Community Builder can be freely downloaded by all registered members

We just released Community Builder 2.4.2 with 6 new features and 5 bug fixes and a minor (low level) security fix in admin area.

The three most noteworthy features are:

1. Ability to import and export fields, tabs and userlist definitions
2. Improved substitutions in terms and condition fields
3. Random user mode added to CB Online module

Community Builder 2.4.2 is a recommended upgrade for all CB sites.

Our demo website has already been updated to Community Builder 2.4.2, so you can see it in action along will all our Joomlapolis add-ons.

As always, you should first test on a cloned environment before upgrading your production site.

We would like to give a special thanks to Mario Korth, working for Hackmanit GmbH, for his responsible report of the low-level security bug in the admin area, affecting CB 2.0 through 2.4.1. This is the first - be it low level - security bug identified in Community Builder in over 11 months and only second in over 11 years.

A detailed changelog is available in the discussion thread.

CB Query Field 6.0 and CB Code Field 2.0 released!

New releases are available for CB Query Field and CB Code Field add-ons with performance improvements and new exciting ajax powered autocomplete functionality.

This new feature lets you provide a custom query or code that dynamically interfaces with user keystrokes to suggest completion values for any CB text field. Just imagine a user typing New in your state field and dynamically being proposed autocompletion values like New Jersey, New Mexico and New York!

Important note if you were using the Update On functionality in a previous CB Code Field or CB Query Field version: Update On function is replaced in CB Code Field 2.0.0 and CB Query Field to 6.0.0 by a much stronger implementation in CB Core Fields Ajax. On upgrade of an existing CB Code Field to 2.0.0 or CB Query Field to 6.0.0, existing Update On usages will be safely migrated to CB Core Fields Ajax settings (even if it's not installed so you'll be ready to go). Simply make sure you have CB Core Fields Ajax installed if you were previously relying on the Update On usage.

You can see both add-ons in action on our demo site and learn more about these new releases in Kyle's blog.
