I hope you are feeling excited as I am right now over the next upcoming major release of EasyBlog 3.0 . Yep, we initially planned to release it as 2.1 but considering the huge amount of new and improved features, a major update is more appropriate. So, instead, we'll be releasing it as EasyBlog 3.0 to help us and the users distinguish between the different version of the products easily.
It's been a week since we posted some leaks on EasyBlog 2.1 and just thought that I should share more about the new features that we've added in it since we are getting near towards the beta release...
The current back end has been revamped to ensure that you would get a clearer picture of all the rich features that comes with EasyBlog unlike the prior which looks a little congested. Oh yes, the refreshed back end works well with Mission Control from Rocket Themes now.
We would like to invite all existing EasyBlog users to help spread the love for us at JoomlaBlogger (A professional blogger that blogs mostly about Joomla! related news ). JoomlaBlogger offers quick looks which is a preview of the component to their users.
If the component is rated well enough, they will then provide a full review of EasyBlog. It will be an un-biased review I believe as we do not actually pay them to have a full review. Therefore, we would like to invite our existing or new users to help us spread the love by voting us at the following URL :)
I have to admit that I do not really like how the current version of EasyBlog 1.8 works with the existing media or image manager. It was pretty simple to use but it was a hassle when I was trying to manipulate existing images. Based on the feedback's we have received, there seems to be a hassle for users trying to upload images into their own repository.
Hence, in EasyBlog 2.0 we have performed a major overhaul on our existing image manager allowing easy management for your site bloggers.
Yeah, it's coming!! In the next version, we will be including integrations with 3rd party external commenting systems from Disqus and Intense Debate . Here's a screen shot with Disqus .
Yes, you've heard it right, we have released quite a number of modules which you can download for your site in conjunction with Joomla! Below are the list of available module downloads available in our downloads area
Stay tune for more updates ....

We'd like to thank each of you especially to our paying customers who love and believe in this wonderful extension.
