Kirby 5.3.1 is now out: github.com/getkirby/kir...

It comes with the fixes for user handling in the core and other (visual) regressions introduced by Kirby 5.3.0. We strongly recommend to update all sites from 5.3.0 to 5.3.1.

Unfortunately the Kirby 5.3.0 release introduced a regression in the user handling that leads to wrong results when using `$users->find()`, `$field->toUsers()` or `$field->toUsers()`. All of these wrongly return the entire set of users without filtering.

We've just realised that we've surpassed 200 releases since Kirby 3 in 2019! 🤯 It's incredible how simply showing up can lead to so much progress over time, but you only really notice it in hindsight. {{ put inspirational quote about a slow drip and a hollow stone here }}

I'm currently building v2 of my personal site with @getkirby.com.

The core idea is to have a unified feed of all my content in one place.

I've now backfilled my whole Twitter archive + regularly fetch posts from Bluesky. So cool seeing everything come together.

Today is Kirby’s 14th birthday 🎂

It still feels like yesterday and a hundred years ago when v1 launched without the panel, a PDF cheat sheet for all available methods, a red logo and zero expectations. 14 years later you are still supporting us. Stronger than ever. Thank you so much 💛

What's new in Kirby 5.2? We added a new `batch` mode to the checkboxes field to select or deselect multiple checkboxes at once. Which is great when you have a checkboxes field with a ton of options. ☑️

Some more personal thoughts about our sales beyond just the typical reminders.

We have been thinking many times to get rid of them. But we see that new users often use them as a chance to give Kirby a proper first try-run. …
