Craft 5.10 came out yesterday. The headline is a deletion workflow that stops you before you break something, and it turns out Craft has had a version of this for years, just for users.

Craft 5.9 came out yesterday. Two or three of the additions will change how I set up the control panel on new projects.

Dot All 2025, the official Craft CMS conference, took place from September 23 to 25 in Lisbon.
