[Guest Alexander Ebert]

We have just released new versions of our products:

 

• WoltLab Suite 5.5.3
  
• WoltLab Suite 5.4.21
  

 

Stability releases (third part of the version number, also known as “patch 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.
