In the Blog application for Pages, we have it set "Page widget" set as on [see IMG01.png], yet it does not show the Blog listing widget on the actual page [see IMG02.png] even though there are Blog entries for that page [see IMG03.png].
Hey Itamar,

1) You're right. It appears some apps are not being checked for updates. I will log this issue in our tracker so we can fix this.

2) We will keep this in mind and create different zip file names for the blog apps.

Hi Itamar,

I believe the widget issue has been addressed in the latest page blog app. Can you try installing the latest page blog app from here and try again?

Thanks, that worked.

BUT Two items of feedback:

(1) It would be good if there was a notification or at least something showing in the applications listing so it was easy to know when apps were out of date.

(2) I then checked and found that the Blog app for Groups and also for Events were also out of date on our site, but on downloading them it seems the download file is called 'blog'zip' for all of them! Perhaps renaming them to event-blog.zip, page-blog.zip etc would be better

As a PS, I find it remarkable that an app who's only function is to display a list of blogs on a page could have a bug that stopped it doing that one task - how on earth do you test things?!!
