Mautic 4.0.0-beta ⚠️ THIS IS A BETA RELEASE. DO NOT USE ANYWHERE NEAR A PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT!
Today we have released Mautic 4.0.0-beta after a lot of hard work on fixing bugs identified in the alpha release, finishing some features and enhancements, and testing all of the pull requests.
This is an early release for testing only which includes a large number of substantial changes to the underlying codebase.
There will be bugs, and there are some features which we still have further refinement to work on in the coming weeks.
UPGRADING IS NOT YET SUPPORTED
There are many significant changes in Mautic 4, including support for Symfony 4 and upgrading dependencies in advance of PHP8 support.
Read the upgrade-4.0.md for more details.
The Composer Initiative has also had the first phase merged in this release. This involves mirroring the app directory, plugins and themes into individual read only repositories, and allows Mautic to be installed in different ways than the standard GUI and CLI install process, such as using the command:
composer create-project mautic/recommended-project:4.x-dev mauticcomposerproject --no-interaction
For more information please join #i-composer-support on Slack (get an invitation at https://mautic.org/slack).
There are also several new features which you will find listed below.
