We are pleased to announce releasing a new version of SkaDate Dating Software – SkaDate 8 Engage.
It has a number of stunning features for members, and a few significant improvements for site administrators.
Here is what you will find in SkaDate 8 Engage Dating Script:
- New social networking and dating templates
SkaDate 8 comes with two new themes: Bubbles (great for a dating site) and Moonlight (perfect for a business or social network).
A capturing entertaining feature for your site members that will make their online dating experience even more fun and interactive. Includes single- and multiplayer games, such as: PentHouse Pool Single Player, Domino Multiplayer, PokerStar, Learn Texas Holdem, Domino Singleplayer, Texas Hold’em Multiplayer.
The Games feature can be easily enabled/disabled via the Admin Panel. Games can be user credits- and membership-dependent.
SkaDate 8 Engage introduces another way for your site members to get to know each other in relaxed and social atmosphere.
Speed-dating is a series of time-limited conversations the event participants go through with the members who meet the matching criteria. It allows site users to meet a lot of new people within one date in a fun and easy way.
Speed-dating feature can work with default Ajax text chat or with audio/video chat add-ons.
- Sign-up with Mobile Edition
Your potential site members now have a freedom to join right from their mobile device. A simplified (shortened) sign-up form consists of a few basic questions making the join process fast and simple.
- Password protection for photo albums
Members’ privacy comes first. Instead of protecting each and every private photo with a password, site users can now make the whole album password-protected so that only the closest friends could see its contents.
Now a site user can see comments for all the content they uploaded in one place. This simplifies the process of comments overview, and helps users not to miss a thing.
Now there is a possibility to tag photos with keywords, thus making photo browsing more convenient for site users.
- New secure image (captcha)
The new captcha looks more attractive while providing the same level of security.
- Sound signal on incoming IM message
This little improvement will ensure the members receive each and every single message when having a private chat. Can be turned on/off by a member.
- Categories for Virtual Gifts
The Virtual Gifts divided by categories make it easier for a user to choose the right gift for every special occasion.
- Possibility to modify the MemberHome page components via Admin Panel
A simplified component-based code customization interface is now available in SkaDate Online Dating Software for a MemberHome page. Now you can play with the MemberHome page components without accessing the software files and folders on the server.
- Simplified interface for disabling dating features
SkaDate PHP Dating Script comes with a variety of dating and social networking features, thus allowing you to create a website that would match either concept. To make it easier for you to convert your site into a purely social network, we have made it possible to disable all the major dating features in one place in the Admin Panel (no code modification required).
- Option to choose European or US date format on the site
To make it right both for our US and European customers we have added a possibility to choose the date format to display on your site that best meets the needs of your target audience.
- Delete a profile with member content
Those having to deal with spammer profiles on a daily basis will like this feature a lot. It gives you an option to delete a member’s profile along with all the content they were able to post while having access to your site. Meaning that you won’t have to surf through the forum and blog posts searching for the spam content and deleting it every time you remove an unwanted profile.
These and other features added to SkaDate 8 Engage bring it to the new level of interactivity, making the software even more competitive and user-friendly.
Good news for the existing SkaDate customers is that having enhanced the script with new features, we didn’t change the core. This makes SkaDate 8 Engage fully compatible with versions 7 and 7,5 meaning there is no need to restore site modifications from scratch after upgrading.
Check the Live Demo of SkaDate 8 Engage, learn more about the new SkaDate Dating Software features, and ask your questions from our pre-sale team 24/7.

Greetings to all SkaDate dating software customers, and those thinking to join our team.
We have an update on SkaDate individual ticket support service.
First of all, we have come up with a long-awaited decision to provide one month of individual ticket support for free to all new SkaDate dating script customers. We understand how difficult it may be for site owners to deal with a management system of professional dating software at the initial stage. Our support operators will be glad to assist you with mastering SkaDate dating software configuration tips, thus tailoring the site to your needs.
Another news is a slight change in SkaDate ticket support hours. From April 7, 2010 we have been providing individual ticket support from 9 am to 6 pm (GMT +6, Monday-Friday) instead of the former 10 am to 7 pm schedule.
We hope the changes in our support service will become another advantage for building a successful business with SkaDate dating script.
Best regards,
SkaDate Team

We decided to set up brand new WackWall blog and separate it from this one. Multiple blogs are harder to manage but they make ordinary user’s life easier. Guess what we choose?
It’s not completely ready yet so we will make some tweaking but from now on all info about the ongoing WackWall/Xitti updates will be posted there.
Find it here: blog.WackWall.com. Please update your bookmarks and RSS feeds.

Believe it or not but Xitti Adult Social Network Builder is finally live.
We worked very hard on it because Xitti introduces OpenWack – our new community software platform. Now you can check it live in action. We worked on this new software for more than a year to solve specific technical problems on modern community sites. Now it’s available for you.
Beta
Of course, Xitti is beta at this point so you shouldn’t use it for production sites yet. It even lacks some necessary features which we postponed to release earlier. But at this point we are working to introduce all basic functionality for a community site, so hold on.
Troubleshooting
What’s important to remember is that this is a new software platform which is yet to mature. Although at this point it’s pretty stable you will still find problems in there (guaranteed! 
). Please don’t hesitate to let us know.
Feedback
Problem reports, suggestions and (of course) opinions are hearty welcome at our Discussion/Help board: GetSatisfaction.com/Xitti.
Help us test Xitti to receive after-beta benefit: FREE LIFETIME hosting!
What’s next?
Xitti comes to host adult social networks from WackWall social network builder. WackWall will no longer host adult content and will also be converted to the new software platform with the existing social networks that are still alive. Watch news!
