Linchpin Essentials 2.9
Summary & Highlights
Welcome to Linchpin Essentials 2.9!
First of all: We've ensured the compatibility with Confluence 8.7 with this release.
As our focus for this release has been on the Linchpin Mobile App, we've brought you some improvements and bugfixes for Linchpin Essentials 2.9.
Make sure to check out the full release notes!
Improvements
- In the past, a regular Confluence search that had users as a result randomly showed some of their profile data in the search results. We changed this. Now, the Confluence search will display only those fields that have been configured to be displayed in a profile header as well. Looks much cleaner that way. :)
Bugfixes
Profile fields tended to break when switching from the field type 'Cascading Multi Select' to a regular 'Multi Select' field type. We fixed this.
We fixed a bug that caused issues when using Language Manager dropdown fields.
- 2.9.1 We fixed a critical bug which broke the quick search.
- 2.9.2 We added a missing error flag when configuring and testing LDAP connections.
- 2.9.2 When using a date filter within the People Search & List macro it didn't always work correctly. This has been fixed.
- 2.9.2 We fixed an issue where special characters were occasionally broken when mentioning users.
- 2.9.2 When using the Confluence Search, some profile field values were broken. This has been fixed.
- 2.9.3 We fixed a potential security issue. (https://seibert.biz/20240611cvecup1)

- 2.9.4 We fixed potential security issues. (https://seibert.biz/20240625cvecup1, https://seibert.biz/20240625cvecup2)
- 2.9.4 The XML import feature wasn't resilient enough against corrupted data. It is now.
- 2.9.4 In some cases, duplicate users were shown in the people directory. We convinced the doppelgangers to stay hidden.
- 2.9.4 We fixed an issue concerning rollbacks for XML imports.
Bugfixes
- Some tooltips weren't working with Confluence 8.8 and higher anymore. We made them work again.
- 2.9.3 We fixed a potential security issue. (https://seibert.biz/20240611cvemblisu)
