**WARNING**: SchildiChat Web is based on Element-web, but its releases are lagging behind. As an example (from 2024-02-26), SchildiChat Web is 22 releases behind (it being based on element-web `v1.11.36`, while element-web is now on `v1.11.58`). Element-web frequently suffers from security issues, so running something based on an ancient Element-web release is **dangerous**. Use SchildiChat Web at your own risk! |

## DNS |

|

|
You need to add a `schildichat.example.com` DNS record so that SchildiChat can be accessed. |
|
|
|
By default SchildiChat will use https://schildichat.example.com so you will need to create an CNAME record |
|
|
|
for `schildichat`. See [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md). |
