Thanks, I filled it in.

Maybe for supported versions. But LibreOffice 3.3 reached end-of-life *nine
years ago*. Everyone's experience would be so much better if some brave hacker
just deleted the old cruft right here right now.

BTW, searching for "Configuration caching Laravel" gives me three results for
"Caching - Laravel" with identical breadcrumbs "laravel.com › docs › cache". At
least the 7.x is ahead of 5.0 and 4.2 results.

Which reminds me, help.libreoffice.org has the same Google breadcrumb problem:
whether 9 years old or brand new, search results have similar breadcrumbs e.g.
"help.libreoffice.org › Calc › Conditional_Formatting" for a help page for
version 3.6, 7 years old.
