CiviCRM version 5.74.0 is now ready to download. This is a regular monthly release. Upgrade now for the most stable CiviCRM experience:

Users of the CiviCRM Extended Security Releases (ESR) do not need to upgrade. The current version of ESR is CiviCRM 5.69.x.

We are committed to keeping CiviCRM free and open, forever. We depend on your support to help make that happen. We thank all our partners, members and ESR subscribers, who are regular financial contributors. If you can, please donate.

What's new in CiviCRM 5.74

FormBuilder date improvements
FormBuilder can now set default dates. Great for adding a hidden "submitted on" date set to today.

Import improvements
You can now import updates to participant registrations as well as create new registrations.

UI Overhaul
SMS (text message) provider setup has the new user interface, making it faster and easier to customize.

Big thanks to Andie Hunt, Alice Frumin and Jon Goldberg for putting up together release notes. See also the version-specific upgrade tasks. The last entry goes back to CiviCRM 5.67, regarding smarty tokens being phased of Message Templates.
