Bug fixes:

• Editing a blog no longer creates a new blog with the changes while leaving the original

Bug fixes/Feature

• Blog posts are now deleted when their respective blog is deleted. Since this was not being handled properly before a new feature in Tools > Rebuild caches has been created "Cleanup blog posts that were not removed on blog deletion". This will go through all blog posts in your database and if it finds one that doesn't have a blog anymore it will delete that blog post. After you run this tool it is required to run the "Rebuild user blog post count totals" cache tool as well to have proper blog post counts displayed.

Bug fix:

• Fixed bug on blog deletion, looking for entity Blogs when one doesn't exist.

New features:

• Better blog post comments handling - Comments now have a global toggle. If turned on new blog posts will be created with comment threads, if turned off no comment threads will be created. Any blog posts with comment threads before the option is turned off will keep their threads/comments.
• Blog creation limit - Is now handled by a user group permission rather than a global addon setting. Admins can now set a limit based on a users group to better accommodate for higher ranked members / memberships!
• More entries from... - The blog post view will now show 5 different random blog posts at the bottom of the page from that specific blog post author.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed error on blog post view when a comment thread is not available any longer not allowing anyone to view said blog post.
• Added blog posts to advanced search page, this was missed when addon was original released with search functionality.
• Blog header images are now deleted when blogs are deleted

Bug Fixes:

• Phrases added for hard coded strings
• Reaction list not showing list of users that reacted
