Some articles in this documentation use some configurations images from Joomla 3. While current release of JomSocial is '''not''' fully compatible with J!3 it works perfectly fine for showing the configuration settings and it will ensure we have updated images with Joomla! platform that is yet to be used widely. <br/>

If you want to upgrade from very old JomSocial version, a tier upgrade will be required.
For instance, it is not recommended to upgrade from 3.1 to 4.5 because installer wont install database changes in versions that are released in between (3.2, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4)
