General philosophy regarding compatibility with Alfresco

As a general philosophy, uploader-plus tries to stay compatible with the most recent versions of Alfresco, while at the same time maintaining compatibility with older versions as far back as possible.

Over the past years, Alfresco has reworked its front-end structure and API's, making it difficult to maintain compatibility across all versions. This forces everyone to make choices and compromises.

If you are a user of an old version of Alfresco, consult the table at the beginning of this page and pick a version of uploader-plus that is compatibile. Be aware, though, that not all the new features may be available.

If you are an uploader-plus contributor, develop against a recent version of Alfresco. Also try to test with as many versions of Alfresco as possible before submitting a PR.

Testing is important here and everybody can contribute! So please open a ticket if you find a problem, and collaborate to keep this page updated.
