Changelog

11.1.0 – September 24, 2026

  • We replaced the date picker with the default html date picker to improve the user experience, the accessibility and performance.
  • We added on the profile edition (front-end), a checkbox available for all users to manage their tracking preferences.

  • [add-ons] We added an option to specify the menu item to use for DP Calendar event links.

  • Development files are no longer included in the third-party libraries shipped with the package, resulting in a lighter and cleaner installation.
  • Newsletters now use the website default language instead of the administrator language for dynamic tags like {date:X}, the “Read more” text and the default templates.

  • We fixed the error message displayed when uploading a file of a non-accepted type that showed raw HTML instead of a readable message.

  • We have fixed the display of links added in subscription form texts and custom fields that were removed on display.
  • We fixed the List-Unsubscribe header so one-click unsubscribe works again.
  • Security for some custom fields has been enhanced.
  • A security issue related to a very specific scenario has been fixed in the mailbox actions.
  • Some translations were not properly replacing HTML characters
  • Imported email addresses are now always stored in lower case, preventing case sensitive duplicates and subscriptions or custom fields being silently skipped during an import.
  • Importing users with an empty date column (like the last open or last click date) no longer triggers a database error, the value is now stored as empty.
  • An “Access denied for this email” error has been fixed when creating a campaign from the dashboard while the favorite template had been deleted.
  • The action buttons now work again on the follow-up, automation and mailbox action listings, where the duplicate buttons silently reloaded the page without doing the action asked and the statistics button did nothing when clicked.
  • The subscription form no longer returns a 404 error when submitted from a secondary language on multilingual websites using Polylang or WPML.
