What can we expect from Craft CMS 5?
1. Everything revolves around Entries! 📝In Craft 5, everything is converted to Entries. This means categories, tags and globals will be integrated into the Entries system, making managing content easier and more streamlined.
2. Redesigned Content View in the Admin panel 🖥️The current search for landing pages and the pages below them is simplified with a new interface that is aligned with your site's information architecture. This makes managing your site more manageable.
3. Multiple Authors per Entry 🤝In Craft 5, you can assign multiple authors to a single entry, making collaboration on content more seamless than ever before.
4. Customization of Entry access by Section 📂Instead of just adding entries to a section, in Craft 5 you can determine which entries are available by section. This provides more flexibility in organizing your content.
5. Copy Entries Between Sections ✂️Craft 5 allows you to move entries effortlessly from one section to another, provided that both sections have the same type.
And that's not all! Here are some other interesting features and improvements we can expect:
- 🚨 Notifications on simultaneous editing of the same entry by multiple authors.
- 🚀 Lazy Eager Loading for improved performance.
- 🌐 Nested Matrix fields for complex content structures.
- 📷 Screenshot previews in Matrix fields.
- 🔒 WCAG 2.1 AA standard compliance for accessibility.
- 🐘 Minimum required PHP version 8.1.
- 🔒 Standard two-factor authentication for added security.
- 🌍 Translatable Alt-text fields.
- 📧 Email settings per site.
- 📚 Automatic storage of new entries as unpublished drafts.
