Hi miekchen ,
Thank you for your sharing. We are sorry for less releases in the past months. We are working on a new version that will be released in the next 2 weeks.
We are also working on a new roadmap for JomSocial and there will be regular releases with new features, improvements and bug fixes.
Thank you for being with JomSocial.

Thanks for your information!
But what does a long-time customer like me, who received a single update for his 120 USD within 6 months, have to gain if a new upgrade is released all at once in two weeks after 6 months (end of license for getting updates etc.)?
Do you think that customers in a similar situation will have a great after sales feeling?
Kind regards
M.
Hi again,
I think for anyone who get expire this month, we can provide 1 month of membership extend so they can gain the new release and can upgrade to the new version.
I hope it could help in someway.
As mentioned, we are working on a roadmap and will release updates regularly.
Regards.
Well...
Yes: well!?

**so they can gain the new release and can upgrade to the new version**.
Today I got follwing email from Joomlart.com:
We would like to remind that, your subscription JomSocial Pro will expire on 06/12/20. Renew the subscription now to get 20% OFF before it expires.
Product name: JomSocial Pro
Expiry date: 06/12/20
20% OFF Renew Coupon: ANON

Now I wonder where I can download the new Jomsocial Pro version?

Hi,
are there any news concerning a new Jomsocial Pro Update?
Thanks and regards
M.
Wow! So after 8 Months from the last release we got today " JomSocial 4.7.7 Joomla social community extension for bug fixes" !
I have to tell you, i was excited some time ago when you promised a release. I said to myself: ok, its been a few good months, but at least we will get something good now. New features. Something new and cool.
Today we receive ..."bug fixes"?
Guys, if this is it, then you sure have no respect for us. And for our money. We work for them, too, btw.
sabbens Hi
We're sorry if the latest update is not up to your expectation. Since we plan to update regularly now we figure that the most important update (bug fixes) should be released first, things like new features can wait until later. New features take a lot of time to test to make sure everything comes together perfectly so we hope you guys can be understanding of this.
I don't want to be misunderstood, but let's face it:
Because of these handful of bug fixes we had to wait NINE months?
That doesn't make any sense for loyal customers, because of a renewal discount of a few Euros to renew the license for Jomsocial every 6 months. After so many months, a few new features would have been appropriate.
I get the impression that Joomlart is no longer focusing on the further development of Jomsocial.
That makes one sad.
Some time ago I had already pointed out that new features like a global image gallery for photo contests or ratings etc. could be such a special feature. A 1:1 clone of a certain community platform cannot stand out by special features.
Best regards

Hi,
sorry, but I cannot share your opinion at all! Because from the point of view of long-term customers it makes little sense to pay expensive renewals every 6 months, which ultimately only contain minor bug fixes, instead of new features (e.g. global photo gallery for photo contests etc.) or at least the realization of features that work according to expectations, such as events and missing reminders.
Best regards

Hi miekchen
I can understand your feeling. We have plan for new features that is added in the Roadmap here: https://www.jomsocial.com/features/road-map
Recently, we also have to start on the Joomla 4 upgrade that is a big work as you know, Joomla 4 is totally new and JomSocial is a big component with many add-ons.
We are trying to get more work done, I hope we can get your kind understanding.
Thank you and have a nice day!
I agree. At least have subscriptions for a year.
What about a new release with new features? When can we expect it?
Thank you.
