GameHub 1.2.1 is on the store. Where 1.2.0 rebuilt the front of the section, this one finishes the back of it.
A rebuilt Admin CP
Seven new screens where there used to be almost none: a dashboard that reports on the section rather than counting rows, a game list manager, a game of the month, media, members, rating scales, and a maintenance screen for the housekeeping a games section accumulates.
Rating scales you choose
Instead of one scale imposed on every kind of game. A board that catalogues both sprawling RPGs and twenty minute arcade games was being asked to judge them on the same axis, which is how ratings end up meaning nothing.
Discussions stay where they belong
An option chooses which forums carry game discussions, rather than letting them land wherever the button was pressed.
Three fixes, all reported by users
Its sister add-on got the same treatment
BoardGameHub 1.0.3 now carries the same admin panel: the same five menu groups, the same seven screens, plus editing games and their ten table sheet fields from the Admin CP. A board running both sections now administers them the same way.
Updating
Admin CP, Add-ons, Install/upgrade from archive. Settings and data survive.
Every change, typed and dated: the changelog

Three fixes, all reported by users
- Widgets showed no name in the widget list, which made them almost impossible to place.
- The Games tab stayed inactive while browsing a collection, so the navigation forgot where you were.
- The recent reviews widget now shows an extract of the review rather than the title alone.
