Thank you for reading this! If you've found a bug, or have a new feature in mind, then here are some notes on how to best report issues or implement changes.

Security

Please do not publish security vulnerabilities publicly until we've had a chance to address them. All security related issues/patches should be sent directly to security@sharelatex.com where we will attempt to address them quickly. If you're unsure whether something is a security issue or not, then please be cautious and contact us at security@sharelatex.com first.

If you've found a bug then please:

  1. Check if there is an existing issue for it. If there is then please add any more information that you have, or give it a "+1".
  2. If there is there is no issue, then please open one.
  3. Please describe the issue as clearly as possible, including how to reproduce the bug, which situations it appears in, what you expected to happen, and what actually happens.
  4. Please include a screenshot for front end issues if you can.
