    Wiki - Link to specific position in a page (anchor)

    Support Notify for all content types

    All Connections content should consistently leverage the Notify function. Some content types (Forum, Wiki, etc...) don't support it a all. Also, IF user is the content owner, allow them to explicitly Notify. Example: Private Bookmarks. I often cre...

    Support for "Rocky Linux" as open and free LTS-Alternative to CentOS

    Connections currently only supports CentOS/RHEL, which is EOL soon on June 30, 2024. CentOS has switched from downstream to upstream, so CentOS 8 will be hard for you to support and for us to administrative I guess. Rocky Linux is a downstream alt...
