Kirby 3.9 is here!

Today is finally the big day for 3.9 :rocket:
https://getkirby.com/releases/3.9

But it’s not just time for a big new release, there’s also a brand new video to demonstrate the new snippets with slots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ASmy8mcBWqg

We’ve also released Staticache 1.0.0 today: https://github.com/getkirby/staticache/releases/tag/1.0.0

And there’s a brand new version of the layout plugin, which is now based on the new snippets with slots: https://github.com/getkirby/layouts/releases/tag/2.0.0

We hope you like it :slightly_smiling_face:

Exciting! Thanks for the great work.

Unfortunately, after updating, all pages were gone from the panel until rolling back to 3.8.

That’s what I did.

  1. Downloaded a fresh plainkit
  2. Replaced the Kirby folder with the Kirby from the zip
  3. Deleted the Media Folder
    4 Checked the Version in the Panel. It did show 3.9

What exactly did you get in the Panel then? Errors? Or just a blank Panel?

Seems to have been a false alarm, sorry. I did it again and now everything is back to normal. It was blank. No errors.

It might have been caused by php. The slots didn’t work either, even so I was already running php 8.1.1

I updated and restarted php

Panel is working, slots are working, …

And finally I tested it in my shared hosting (only offering 8.1) sandbox project and it is also working absolutely fine there.
