Add ability to tag versions as old but still receiving security updates.
[edit]Currently one can not indicate that a version is old but will still receive security updates (but no further support/features) with this template. This would be useful e.g. in the case of Xenforo where 1.5 will still receive security updates even after normal support was dropped.[1] Other projects might also profit from that.
The only issue that I currently see is that the obvious new color for that category doesn't really work out well as orange is used for latest preview. (Which I would expect "Older version, security updates" or something along that line to use) Maybe a different color (pink/purple/violette?) could be used for the latest preview? (Or turquoise if we want to go with a more rainbow-ish scheme) Alternatively such color could be used for the security updates. --Phoenix616 (talk) 17:51, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

- Not really, for me "co" (supported) means that normal bugs are fixed and support is provided e.g. via chats. Security updates are only for critical issues and support will not be provided beyond that when running it. --Phoenix616 (talk) 14:28, 18 October 2025 (UTC)
