+:::warning
+Since v3.14.0, Woodpecker can report the status of services and detached steps.
+Because these can now fail, until v4.0.0 is released, service failures are ignored by default to preserve backward compatibility.
+We encourage you to disable this option and update your pipeline configuration.
