Dolphin 7.0.8 Released!
Dolphin 7.0.8 is here with us, rectifying some security vulnerabilities and busting a mid-sized gang of virtual insects (aka bugs).
There're also some useful system tweaks, but really, you should've stopped reading and started downloading

FAQ
Q:
Where's an XYZ feature?
A:
Glad you asked. It may be coming in future versions or in some dreadful sequence of events has been overlooked.
Check Trac and either submit your suggestion or wait for an existing ticket to be addressed.
Q:
But I know/see/found an unfixed bug!
A:
Bugger. Check Trac and either submit your report or wait for an existing ticket to be addressed.
If you can't post to Trac, please use this forum.
Q:
Is it a stable version that I can use on a live site?
A:
Yes. Note though, that "stable" is not a guarantee - it's a term used to label "supported" version,
so that when something is changed we will be providing upgrade instructions from this version to a new one.
It also means that it is the most stable version that we know of.
Q:
Is it a final 7.0.x update and will we some more heavyweight improvements in Dolphin 7?
A:
Dolphin 7 will continue to be developed, improved and supported for years ahead, so there's no way it's a "final" version in the line. Dolphin 8 will co-exist with Dolphin 7 for long time. Dolphin 7 licenses will work for Dolphin 8 too.
still if 50% of ideas and dreams are implemented...
that would be so much fun for webmasters...
unfortunately we all need to bear the pain of those millions of darn bugs!!!
But life is a challenge aint it?
done!
I try to make promo block disapear for logged in members and only for guests to see :-(
one urgent issue with Orca forum: clicking on "Compile languae" link - layout INSIDE forum blocks is squashed... as if there is no CSS presented.
the update was released yesterday... may be it would be better fix it and update the pack?!
regards
Tim Shim
The structure of orca layout folder was changed (to give more control for web designers), so you need to update custom template according to the new structure.
It maybe that "base" folder is changed or some other core files.
Please post such questions in the forum.
