  • We strongly recommend to always update the Linchpin Intranet Suite to the latest version available in the Atlassian Marketplace.
  • You should always perform a "dry run" for any version update of the Linchpin Intranet Suite on a testing instance. Ideally, the test instance will have content data cloned from production.
  • We consider any major release of the Linchpin Intranet Suite to be 'production ready'. Some issues may only occur under specific circumstances, though, so we'll also release ad-hoc updates for critical bugs.
  • Please note that we will only provide ad-hoc hotfix updates for the latest version of the Linchpin Intranet Suite.


Safety Guidelines

We strongly recommend the following Confluence configuration settings to avoid potential security risks:

Make sure people are not allowed to register their own accounts, especially without restriction to your domain.

If you allow anonymous access, make sure anonymous users don't have permission to create or edit anything anywhere (pages, blogposts, comments, attachments etc. in any space).
     
If you configure your instance differently, you do so at your own risk.
