@mfraz74 Hi, if you think you've discovered a bug in LibreOffice, our QA community would appreciate a quick bug report at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org – Please provide details about your setup (LibreOffice version, operating system, steps to reproduce, and screenshot if relevant). Thanks!

The #LibreOffice and Open Source Conference 2024 is coming up in Luxembourg, October 10 – 12! Here, Paolo Vecchi from the organising team tells us what to expect: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VqgbyCyAG1o

@npub1ak5kewf6anwkrt0qc8ua907ljkn7wm83e2ycyrpcumjvaf2upszs8r0gwg It's not the latest version, no. LibreOffice 24.8 is the latest version. But we can't choose which version individual Linux distros offer 😉

678,210 downloads of #LibreOffice 24.8 in the first week of its release! To everyone using it, we hope you're enjoying it 😊

@cryptgoat You can report it as an issue for the QA community to investigate: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/ – Thanks!

@tdforg Here's a PeerTube version of the same video: https://peertube.opencloud.lu/w/nxEr5wbepUGSMD5JQ5mtEm

@jom Glad you find it useful! 😊

@peturdainn Hi! You can report it at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org if you like 😊

Join us at the #LibreOffice and Open Source Conference 2024! Even better: give a talk there 😊 The call for papers is still open: https://events.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice-conference-2024/cfp #foss #OpenSource

@brawnybunkbedbuddy We think that showing a donation message only once every six months is not "nagging:" Donations are absolutely essential for the future health of LibreOffice. If you really don't want the message once every six months, you can disable it: Open Expert Configuration and search for LastTime. Change the values of LastTimeGetInvolvedShown and LastTimeDonateShown to the maximum allowed value of 2147483646.

The YouTube version of our #LibreOffice 24.8 video has subtitles in these languages, thanks to our worldwide community! Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, Danish, French, German, Hebrew, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Slovenian, Spanish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx--aRv6af8 – And if anyone wants to contribute more, the script is on our wiki 😊 https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Videos/24.8_New_Features_Script

@el_haych2024 @the5thColumnist The update checker brings many millions of people to the new version, so we're always a bit careful and wait for a minor update (eg LibreOffice 24.8.1) before getting everyone to upgrade 😉

Want to learn new things, and expand your skillset for a future career change? Join an #opensource project (like LibreOffice) and build up experience! That's exactly what Gladys David did: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2024/08/26/community-member-monday-gladys-david/ #foss #libreoffice

@bzdev Hi! You can submit enhancement requests here: https://bugs.documentfoundation.org – But of course, we're a volunteer-driven project with very limited resources. To get a new feature more quickly, you can consider helping our volunteers, or funding a developer. Thank you ☺️👍

@neatnit Hi! Thanks for the report – can you let our QA community know at https://bugs.documentfoundation.org 😊
