We upgraded! What's new? Learn more about new features, technical changes and solved bugs in 4App Essentials.

Note on upgrading: If you skip a version when upgrading, check all release and patch notes in between for important information. They apply cumulative.
Note on individualization: If your 4ALLPORTAL is highly customized or if you installed individual apps, please contact your implementation partner before upgrading. We recommend checking your custom contents, especially layouts and object renderers, carefully after an upgrade.

# New Features and Improvements

# Linked Tasks: Improved Sidebar

When showing a linked task in a collection's or file's sidebar, you can now open the task in its detail view via the task's "More" button. Additionally, we polished the display of the task in the sidebar (e.g., highlight expiring due dates), so all information become clearer to a user.
