Other noticeable improvements
- Password changes sign out other devices: Changing your password now signs you out on every other device and revokes your access tokens. Resetting a forgotten password signs you out everywhere. If you use the browser extension or integrations like Floccus with an access token, you’ll need to sign them back in afterwards.
- Password rate limiting: After 15 wrong passwords in a row, an account accepts only one attempt every 25 seconds. This makes guessing a password much slower without locking you out of your own account.
- More security fixes: This release also fixes a number of moderate-severity security issues, thanks to everyone who reported them responsibly. We recommend updating to 2.17.
- Search from the address bar: With the browser extension installed, type
lw, press space, then type what you’re looking for and press Enter to search your Linkwarden links straight from the address bar. This works in Chrome, Firefox, and other Chromium-based browsers. - Import fixes: Imported links now keep the order of their original dates no matter in what order they were imported, Wallabag dates are read correctly, and larger imports are more reliable.
- Custom AI tagging prompts: Self-hosted instances can now replace the prompt sent to the model for each AI tagging method with the
AI_GENERATE_TAGS_PROMPT,AI_PREDEFINED_TAGS_PROMPT, andAI_EXISTING_TAGS_PROMPTenvironment variables. Check it out in the docs! - And more: As always, there’s a long tail of smaller fixes and improvements across the web app, the mobile app, and the browser extension.
