The Application Upgrade Check in the Universal Plugin Manager (UPM) helps you to check whether your plugins will still work with Confluence after a Confluence upgrade.

For example, if you were thinking of upgrading from Confluence 4.1 to Confluence 4.2, the Application Upgrade Check can tell you the following:

  • Installed plugins that are compatible with Confluence 4.1 and Confluence 4.2.
  • Installed plugins that are not compatible with Confluence 4.2, but will be compatible with Confluence 4.2 if you upgrade them.
  • Installed plugins that are not compatible with Confluence 4.2, even if you upgrade them to their latest version.

 

To check compatibility of your plugins against different Confluence versions:
