Kirby 5.2.0-rc.1 is here!

Hey everyone,

it’s been pretty quiet from us in the last weeks. This is good news, because it means that we have been busy :bee:

We’re not quite ready to show you everything yet, but today we’re starting with the pre-release candidate for 5.2.0:

I don’t know how this always happens, but the release notes have turned out to be quite long again :laughing: I’d say that’s good news for you as well. But you’ll have to see for yourself. Here are the highlights.

:elephant: PHP 8.5 support
:radio: CORS support
:ballot_box_with_check: New batch select mode for the checkboxes field
:arrow_up_down: Collapse / expand all blocks
:open_file_folder: New create option for the files section
:label: Better auto-labels in the Panel
:high_voltage: Big performance boost for forms

A huge thank you to @johannschopplich for helping us with CORS support :yellow_heart:

We’d really appreciate any feedback or last-minute bug reports for the release candidate if you find the time during the week. The final release is planned for next week.

Super nice but any change to include this “longtime” feature request alongside the great new features?
