Work completed in the last couple of weeks
We released Silverstripe CMS 5.1.0-rc1 and have sent that off to a third-party security auditor, and have been working our way through some of the items in our 5.2 backlog, along with the usual smattering of bug fixes.
We’ve also started looking at silverstripe/linkfield to see whether it meets our expectations for a standardised link management system - and if not, where the feature gaps are.
Bug fixes and other immediate changes
- addToQuery() tableName is empty - patched in silverstripe/framework
- GridField filter doesn’t reset the GridField state for pagination links - patched in silverstripe/admin
- Fixed the CI setup for silverstripe/dynamodb

Focus for the next couple of weeks
Over the next couple of weeks while we wait for the security audit to come back for the Silverstripe CMS 5.1.0 release, we’ll be focusing on the items in our backlog for 5.2, along with bugfixes as usual and continuing our look into silverstripe/linkfield.
We’ll also be drafting comms for the 5.1.0 release in advance, so we have those ready to go for release day next month.
