Got this up and running this afternoon. Excited for this to be here. Google is so much faster than Dropbox for offsite for me. It took me about 35 mins to get everything backed up to Dropbox. Google Drive is way faster - got the whole thing done in 13m 5 seconds. MUCH nicer. Tkx!

no , this is a bug of this update, the behavior change after 7.9.0 update

There might be other bugs, and each bug deserves a separate thread. We cannot discuss everything under one topic. It would be messy.

Thank you for submitting a separate ticket.

An alleged bug is NOT “News”.
This Alleged bug I have been unable to reproduce and the updated version appears to be working just fine for me.

If you make a post in the correct part of the forum it will get more notice (mainly because those wishing to check will hopefully have the all important system information)

Very useful features implemented in this version!
Thank you for your continual work on improving Virtualmin even more!

Nice! Thanks!

Sorry for the noob question but I think Virtualmin is not autmatically installing this update. Is it supposed to be installed manually? If so, how do I do it?

At the bottom of that list should be one: “xx package updates are available”

Click and follow the prompts.

There is no auto-update for which I am thankful as I always take a snapshot of the system before applying updates - just in case!

The new menu seem easier to use. I particularly like the new DNS Settings menu item.

I know there many other changes that make a big difference such as the breakdown of the DNSSEC Zone Keys it to the relevant values.

Awesome. Thanks to the whole team.

Thanks @Randomz and @jimr1. Auto update is enabled, not sure why this was not installing automatically.

You should just install it manually then by clicking the packages link on the dashboard or using SSH.
