SocialEngine 4 powers on – download a free trial
Jul 21st
This July has seen the long awaited Production release of SocialEngine version 4 and the v4 versions of the official plugins. The SocialEngine team worked on SE4 for over a year to completely redesign the platform from scratch. SocialEngine4 is built on the popular (and open source) Zend Framework to make customizations and further development straightforward.
You can download your Free Trial copy from socialengine.net/free-trial
The trial contains SocialEngine v4 as well as all of Webligo’s v4 plugins.
To get all the same features when you buy, you’ll have to purchase the plugins you want to use. The trial expires after 30 days and once it’s expired, the site won’t work.
The trial’s PHP source code is encrypted. The full version is NOT.
Even after the Trial expires your database will stay intact, so you can use all your member data with the full version after you purchase it, no need to start over. That’s user friendly 
The SE3 to SE4 upgrade package is not yet available but is expected within a week or so.
Version 4.0.1, with further tweaks and bug fixes is coming very soon.
Several Third Party Developers have already begun releasing their Plugins and Templates for SocialEngine v4, and others are hard at work upgrading their v3 plugins to v4.
Latest listings for v4 can be found on the SocialEngineMechanic v4 Plugin and Template Listings RSS
You can experience and discuss SocialEngine v4 at SE4.me as well as finding tips, tricks, mods and bug fixes posted by SE4me Community members.

SocialEngine V4 – Music Plugin and more! next is Admin ;)
Mar 22nd
Last week there was a definite party atmosphere on the SocialEngine V4 Preview with the release of the long awaited V4 Music Plugin. Music now has some excellent new features like playlists, and being able to add songs from other members collections to your playlists. Music Player directly in the activity feed is very nice too
Music was the last plugin to be released and by all accounts the team at Webligo are now working feverishly on completing the v4 Admin Panel. Comments posted on the SE4 Preview have revealed that the Language for v4 will be file-based .. not database-based as was the case in V3, and this is welcome news for many.
Excitement continues to build, with screenshots of the new Admin Panel expected shortly and the much anticipated SE4 Beta download is rumored to be available to SE clients within a month or so !
Reminder: Want to save $20 on your purchase of SocialEngine v3/v4 core ? Use the discount coupon code clare-20 [thanks to the good people at SocialEngine.net]
