As an LTS release, Moodle 4.5 will be supported with security patches and fixes for an extended period, making it the recommended version for organizations looking for a reliable, long-term solution. For most users, this version is the best choice for production environments until the next LTS version (Moodle 5.3) becomes available. ### Moodle 5.0 * **Released:** 7 October 2024 * **General Support Ends:** 20 April 2026 * **Security Support Ends:** 5 October 2026 Moodle 5.0 is the latest major release of the platform. However, this version is **not recommended for most users** at the moment. A significant number of plugins and third-party integrations are not fully compatible with Moodle 5.0 yet. This means that there could be functionality issues or disruptions in service for users upgrading to this version without full compatibility in place. Given this, the best solution for most users is to stick with Moodle 4.5 LTS until Moodle 5.1 is released, which is expected to bring improved stability and broader plugin compatibility. By using Moodle 4.5 LTS, you can ensure a stable environment while you wait for the next major updates and improvements in the Moodle 5.x series. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.
