There is no 3.8-ready version of SocialForums yet. I'm waiting for a more stable version.

Uhm, cannot confirm that. Are you using vB3.8?

That has already been requested, but it needs much work. I'm not sure if it worth it.

My site's last blog post was in August, for example.

To be honest I'm starting to regret using all the blogs and social networking stuff, it's ill thought out and cobbled together very badly, and now they are having to change it all round again which breaks all the custom fixes people put in to make it work properly - such as this excellent mod!

The *only* way forward for Jelsoft is to have social group discussion posts and blog entries/comments mixed into getdaily and getnew searches, with an additional column to show what each result is..."Forum Post", "Blog Post", "Social Group Post" etc. That's the ONLY way it will ever work properly. But that's not really for this thread.

That's true, but with 3.8 they are already trying to bundle it alltogether.

It's a new service I offer.

Have YOU got a thread that's bubbling along nicely that you would like stopped in its tracks? Then drop me a line....I'll post to it, and I guarantee it won't get any more replies, ever!

Haha I'll be breaking your service
