+ Added plugin: Enhanced Status Updates
+ Added theme: Daylight 7.1 (based on Midnight 7.1, includes all of the below fixes for Midnight 7.1)
* Fixed calendar header when scrolled down the page not having enough padding
* Fixed dialog z-index as a result because some genius decided that the sticky header should display in FRONT of a modal dialog
* Made spoilers use the new bright blue color instead of old darker blue seen in the earlier Midnight/Elaztek themes
* Improved spacing for awards tab
* Added background blur effect for some elements (uses CSS property "backdrop-filter", does not work on all browsers)
* Fixed theme menu styling
* Fixed mood profile display
* Fixed overlap issues with various header button placements
* Fixed split button drop shadow radius not being correct
* Ivory Tower/Audio Organizer styling is now more dependent on the theme rather than being built into the page itself

A small change has been applied to the helpcenter.
 
* Anyone that does not have access to the site AdminCP will not be able to see the author of a helpcenter article
- Removed Killerteddy
 
Due to the change in the way helpcenter articles are displayed, any issues you may find browsing our helpcenter should be reported using the "Report Topic" link at the bottom of the article's content. This change was made to maintain a more professional look to the Helpcenter, as opposed to having it look like a blog.
