Akeeba Subscriptions 2.0.1 just released.

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Akeeba Subscriptions 2.0.1 Stable, a bugfix release in our 2.0 series.

Akeeba Release System 2.0.1 is a bugfix release fixing some minor issues discovered in the 2.0 Stable release. Most notably, is solves some compatibility issues with Joomla! 2.5.0 Stable released yesterday. Compatible with Joomla! 1.5, 1.7 and 2.5 with a single package it'll fit into any of your sites, old or new.

As always, Akeeba Subscriptions is available free of charge from our Downloads page. If you have an older version installed, you can simply use the integrated Live Update feature to upgrade to the new version painlessly.

While the software is free, its support is not. If you wish to receive support for the software, you will need to buy a MINISUPPORT subscription at 7.79 Euros for an 8-day pass to our dedicated forum section. Alternatively, if you are a subscriber to AKEEBADELUXE or SUPPORT you can request support either through the dedicated support forum section or by submitting a private support ticket.

Supported versions

Our support policy is to provide support only to the latest published stable release of Akeeba Subscriptions, as well as to the latest published preview (alpha, beta or release candidate) release, if one is available. As of this release, only 2.0.1 is supported. If you have 1.x or an alpha/beta/rc version of 2.0 installed on your site, please upgrade as soon as possible.

Moreover, we only support the Joomla! versions officially supported by the Joomla! project. Due to the plethora of active Joomla! versions, we have consolidated the support terms for different Akeeba Subscriptions and Joomla! version combinations in the table below:
