v5.0.1 is a bug-fix release on top of the major v5.0.0 release. It features the addition of long pending features such as the visual drag-and-drop e-mail builder, per-campaign SMTP selection, and numerous other fixes and improvements.

What’s new?

  • Ctrl+S short for saving campaigns while working on them

  • Make OIDC provider name on the login button configurable.

  • Add get list permission check to bulk subscriber list management.
