Newscoop 4.0.4 follows hot on the heels of the latest Newscoop upgrade to improve comment management for sites whose community contributes a large amount of comments. Flagged by Newscoop users Brasil 247 (55 million page views per month and counting!), we fixed this and a few other minor issues.
There are Debian, Ubuntu and Red Hat Enterprise packages, which allow for an automated install and you can find out more about these on the download page and in the manual.
If you didn’t upgrade to 4.0.3, that release had a vital security fix, so upgrade is strongly advised.
Please see below for a changelog or check out the Latest Release page. Huge thanks to everyone who gave us feedback and posted to the forum with help, questions and ideas.
