What’s New in 9.4.7
- Better YouTube Embeds: We've improved the YouTube block so that videos display more reliably, even on stricter web servers.
- Dashboard Enhancements: The Database Entities page now shows more complete information behind the scenes, helping advanced users and site maintainers better understand their data structures.
Fixes That Make a Difference
We’ve tackled a number of bugs that could affect your daily use of the CMS:
- File attachments in conversations now look and behave correctly.
- The loading indicator for conversations now appears properly.
- The “close” (X) button on workflow pop-ups now shows in all themes—not just the default one.
- Fixed a confusing issue where the “Subscribe” button in conversations could act like an “Unsubscribe” button.
- Username validation on the profile edit screen works correctly again.
- You can now successfully rename form blocks after adding them to a page.
- Fixed an issue where certain interface elements didn’t load correctly in non-English languages.
Behind-the-Scenes Improvements
- We’ve updated some of the system’s underlying tools to keep things running smoothly.
- Better support for developers by including more detailed identifiers in the system’s API.
Security Updates
We take security seriously. In this release, we’ve:
- Patched an issue in a widely used library (Symfony) that could have allowed limited access to protected areas. Read more .
- Updated how SVG files are scanned to protect against a potential vulnerability. Details here .
We recommend updating your site to 9.4.7 to take advantage of these enhancements and ensure your site stays secure and up-to-date.
