Universal Plugin Manager 2.0 : Universal Plugin Manager 1.5 Release Notes

13 June 2011

With great pleasure, the Atlassian integration team presents Universal Plugin Manager 1.5.

Highlights of this release:

  • Work without a connection to the Atlassian Plugin Exchange. The Universal Plugin Manager recognises a new system property, upm.pac.disable, that will disable the connection to the Atlassian Plugin Exchange. When this property is set to true, the UPM will not try to access the Atlassian Plugin Exchange. See Problems Connecting to the Atlassian Plugin Exchange.
  • See a message about available plugin upgrades. You no longer have to visit the Universal Plugin Manager screens to check for upgrades. Whenever upgrades are available for your installed plugins, you will see a notification on the administration console screens.
