The Silverstripe CMS Squad is pleased to announce that CMS 5.4.0-beta1 is now available and ready to install. This also marks the feature freeze for Silverstripe CMS 5.4, as well as CMS 5 in general. No new features will be added to CMS 5.4 or CMS 5 from this point. Bug fixes are allowed. All new features will now target CMS 6 instead.
The 5.4.0-beta1 release is not stable and likely contains bugs. The purpose of this release is to help the Silverstripe CMS Squad and the Silverstripe community identify and fix bugs prior to the stable release.
Review the Silverstripe CMS 5.4.0-beta1 changelog to find out what is new.
Visit the Silverstripe CMS release documentation to understand this process in detail.
The stable 5.4.0 release is scheduled for April 2025.
