We are proud to release Community Builder 1.8.1 as a free download (as usual) and a highly recommended upgrade for everyone.
If you are using CB on a Joomla 2.5 site you should really upgrade to CB 1.8.1 and to Joomla 2.5.6. Yesterday's Joomla 2.5.5 security release also introduced new features and new bugs which are now already fixed with today's Joomla 2.5.6 release. Joomla 2.5.5 also broke quite a few third-party extensions, including CB 1.8.
So we decided to quickly release CB 1.8.1 that now works with Joomla 2.5.6 (and all other Joomla versions) and also fixes many CB 1.8 identified issues.
Thus, CB 1.8.1 is a recommended update for all CB sites. Joomlapolis is already using CB 1.8.1 as it is our policy to not only provide the highest possible release quality but to also thoroughly test our releases on our websites before public availablility.
We would like to thank our CB Testing Workgroup and specifically adje, bgies, forty, jciconsult, lavsteph, marionetarh, reinhard, sniper_rio, tschersich and thepiston for their valuable help during the last 48 stressful hours.
For a detailed changelog please see forum discussion below.

Joomla 2.5.5 has just been released.
However there appear to be issues and bugs that have already been reported and Joomla 2.5.5 has broken CB 1.8 user saving process.
At this point we must recommend that existing Joomla installation should not upgrade to Joomla 2.5.5 and wait for next (hopefully soon) Joomla 2.5.6 release.
The CB Team is temporarily dropping all current in progress activities to work-around these Joomla 2.5.5 issues and to release a Community Builder 1.8.1 package as soon as possible.
[UPDATE 1] A quick fix for Joomla 2.5.5 breaking the CB 1.8 user save is now provided here.
Add easy inline editing to Community Builder user profiles and lists with the new CB Core Fields Ajax 1.0 Incubator release.

With the new CB Blogs 3.0 release blogging is simple, easy and fun!
Members can create and manage blogs directly from their CB user profile and can view other blogs by visiting other user profiles.
CB Blogs 3.0 provides Blog moderation by CB moderators. If blog approval is configured, your CB moderators will receive a notification approval message. The email includes the submitted blog title and links to the member profile and to the general blogs approval page.
CB Blogs can be configured to store blogs as Joomla articles. This way you can take advantage of Joomla content layouts to present your users' blogs on your website. And since blogs are Joomla articles, all Joomla content commenting solutions are applicable and can be used!
If you are using K2, you can choose to have user blogs stored as K2 content elements. This way you can build upon existing Community Builder and K2 integration and use K2 built-in commenting support for your CB Blogs!
Alternatively, CB Blogs also provides its own internal efficient storage engine for high volume blogs. This keeps blogs and articles separate and optimizes performance for each.
CB Blogs 3.0 supports blog categorization and Joomla Access Levels for individual blogs (including Joomla 2.5 ACL).
CB Blogs 3.0 is stable and ready to power your Community Builder 1.8 websites working on any Joomla version environment (including the latest Joomla 2.5.4).
Here are some screenshots illustrating the functionality that this Professionaladd-on can bring to your website. This is just one of the 31+ powerful Professional add-ons you can get as a Professional or Developer member on Joomlapolis.
