Title: The new Symbiostock is here!
Post by: Symbiostock Official on May 09, 2015, 01:36: Symbiostock 1.0 has now been released. You can install it directly through your WordPress install by going to Plugins > Add New and searching for Symbiostock, or you can download it directly through WordPress.org: https://wordpress.org/plugins/symbiostock/

Thanks to all of the supporters that helped out, and there's lots more to come. :)

Post by: Symbiostock Official on May 10, 2015, 09:47: I considered maintaining the versions, but I think that would be more confusing since the new Symbiostock is different in more ways than one. Accordingly, the use of the word 'legacy' is more apt a term for it, especially from a software standpoint.

you really don't get it -- if someone searches for symbiostock, they'll find v1.0 and v3.3.8 - which one are they going to try? but you're in charge.....

are you just trying to start problems or do you have any reasonable input.

why do you think that, would not anyone reading this thread, know this is a new roll out.

Post by: Semmick Photo on May 11, 2015, 08:17: Symbiostock is not delivered from this forum plus many people don't read forums. The plugin is available from WordPress. If people search for Symbiostock or whatever search query to find options to find a photo plugin they get two results v1.0 and v3.3.8. I would install the latest version which is then the legacy plugin and not Robins version.

Ron is right.

Figuring out numbering systems is not exactly brain surgery, folks.
