wbb Update: WoltLab Suite 5.3.5 / 5.2.13 / 3.1.21 / 3.0.27

[Guest Alexander Ebert]

We have just released new versions of our products:

 

• WoltLab Suite 5.3.5
  
• WoltLab Suite 5.2.13
  
• WoltLab Suite 3.1.21
  
• WoltLab Suite 3.0.27
  
• WoltLab Community Framework 2.1.24 pl 3 (*)
  

 

 

 

Stability releases (also known as "minor releases") aim to solve existing problems in the current version. Like every stability release, they do not introduce new features; It is strongly recommended to apply these updates.

 

 

 

(*) The update to the WoltLab Community Framework 2.1 only introduces a new notice in the admin panel. This will inform users that the security support for their version has expired and that it is strongly recommended to upgrade to a newer version. No other changes have been made.
