LIbreoffice Still and Fresh have been switched

Submitted by erichsito on February 14, 2023 - 9:34am

Hello,

I downloaded and installed the update for my Libreoffice Still, yesterday after my regular backup.
Today I found out that my vLookup to other files stopped working. Searching for the version number I came to see that I have now 7.4.5 (supposedly "Still") but the version for the "Fresh" type on the download page is 7.4.3 ?
Seems the have been switched and the later version (7.4.5) should be the "fresh" one ...

LibreOffice online installer

Submitted by rbon on December 3, 2022 - 11:43am

Hi,
It's possible to create an online installer for LibreOffice?
The problem with an online installer is that it must extract the content of an LibreOffice installer, for example 'LibreOffice_7.4.3_Win_x86.msi'.
I have found a tool for extract all .MSI files and it's name is LessMSI.
Details about LessMSI:

LanguageTool requires a 64-bit LO since version 5.9

Submitted by Anton_D on October 25, 2022 - 8:32pm

Because of some internal changes (Hunspell right now requires and uses an 64-bit version), LanguageTool right now effectively supports only the 64-bit version of the LibreOffice.

I know, this was discussed many times in the past, even from myself. But: could we reconsider to do so? Because of the topic and the fact, that many things has changed since the last such discussion? And we don't need a big installation with both 64-bit and 32-bit versions inside, like FFx. The Google Chrome like separate distribution should be ok.

Portable LibreOffice, what is happening??

Submitted by beginner-p.a.2 on October 25, 2022 - 7:15pm

Hello

(The OS is Windows 10)

I’ve used Portable LibreOffice for years.

Now, Portable LibreOffice Writer is pretty much unusable. The last couple of versions of LibreOffice Writer are forcing me to look for another app.

Creating & setting templates has become a nightmare.

The English (GB) spellcheck doesn’t work at all.

Installing/Removing dictionaries doesn’t work properly, or, when it does, it solves nothing.

Can't Download LibreOffice Still 7.3.6

Submitted by Abraxian on October 5, 2022 - 3:00pm

I refer to this webpage: https://portableapps.com/apps/office/libreoffice-portable-still

If I click on any of the two links there to download LibreOffice Still 7.3.6 all I get is a alert message "URL not found page. The page you requested could not be found". Someone needs to look into this and fix it, I have been waiting for weeks for this download and once it shows up it doesn't work.
