Auf Grund einer Diskussion im deutschsprachigen Support hat Talk19zehn die Viewlegend Icon-Legende überarbeitet und an dort benannte Anforderungen, wie die Migration auf v_2_4_0.php als auch das JS und wenige andere Notationen angepasst.
Aus diesen Gründen ist ein sauberes Update nötig. Das Wichtigste:
Somit müssen vorherige Versionen dieser Erweiterung vollständig gelöscht werden! Das heißt, Daten müssen sauber aus der Datenbank entfernt werden.
