Version guide

Versionsnummerering

For at forstå versionsnummereringen skal du huske, at version 2.06 blev indledt med 1.92, 2.00 og 2.05. LimeSurvey 2.06 er vores "udgangspunkt", da det er det øjeblik, hvor en LTS-version også begyndte at blive udviklet. Derfor har vi nu en(n):

• LTS-version: 2.06LTS. Den blev senere omdøbt til 2.6.x den 24. oktober 2016. Denne version vil blive understøttet indtil lanceringen af den næste LTS-version. Ifølge dette [1], er den næste LTS-version LimeSurvey 3.x.
• up-to-date version. Den første opdaterede version efter 2.06 var 2.50, som blev udgivet den 2. februar 2016. Siden da er der tilføjet nye funktioner med udgivelserne af LimeSurvey 2.6xx og 2.7xx Efter den sidste 2.7x udgivelse blev LimeSurvey 3 lanceret den 22. december 2017.

Forskelle

All three major LimeSurvey versions described below use different template engines. This means that a template created for LimeSurvey 2.06 cannot be used in LimeSurvey 2.73 or LimeSurvey 3, and a template created in 2.73 cannot be used in LimeSurvey 3.

Why did you change the template engines and make them incompatible?

1. LimeSurvey 2.50 (now 2.73) introduced responsive default templates, and we had to change the HTML to support this addition.
2. LimeSurvey 3 introduced a Twig template system and a template inheritance system which are not compatible with older HTML-based templates.

Please note that the Template editor was renamed in LimeSurvey 3, being called now Themes.

You can also observe in the screenshots from below the GUI (Graphical User Interface) changes that took place along the time.

Long-term support (LTS)

What does LTS mean for LimeSurvey? If a version is marked as being LTS, then the respective version is eligible to receive bugfixes and security updates.

At the moment, LimeSurvey 3 is a LTS release. There will not be any new features added. Check out the LimeSurvey Roadmap for information about support timelines.
