Description Samuel Mannehed cendio 2022-09-14 09:42:08 CEST
When writing out the version in Web Access and in our Web Administration, we currently write something like this:

> Version 4.14.0 (build 2408) on tl.cendio.se

The last part where we write the hostname seems quite unnecessary, since that information will be available in the address bar of the browser anyway.
Comment 3 Samuel Mannehed cendio 2022-09-14 13:34:34 CEST
The $hostname is no longer shown in the Web Access frontend, and is gone from the backend.

Removing it from Web Admin remains. This is the reason a tlwebadm unit test is currently failing (test_templates.TemplateTests.test_escaping):

Comment 4 Pierre Ossman cendio 2022-09-19 12:22:47 CEST
Note that the help function cannot be fully removed from tlwebadm, as it is needed to redirect to tlclient.cgi.
Comment 6 Pierre Ossman cendio 2022-09-19 13:05:50 CEST
Should be gone from both now.
Comment 7 Frida Flodin cendio 2022-09-26 10:56:49 CEST
Looks better, the hostname is removed from both tlwebadm and Web Access.
