A Release Candidate for the upcoming phpList 3.4.3 is now available for testing.
This release includes extended domain statistics, a new REST API call and several fixes.

  • The domain statistics page includes a new table that lists all domains with the highest number of bounces and links to a new page with aggregated performance stats for each of those records.

REST API changes

A new call has been added to the new REST API included since phpList 3.4.0 that allows you to get the number of subscriber per list.
For other supported actions on the REST API please check the blueprint here.

  • Fixed 500 Internal Server Error in web developer network when using PHP version 7.2.0 or higher, thanks to @leftpinkie for reporting the issue and submitting the fix, see the pull request
  • Add a check for required PHP modules that are missing and display an error message with the missing PHP module names if there is any, please check the pull request and suggest any modules you think would fit on that list.
  • Added support for setting list membership and HTML preference via HTTP GET vars for remote subscriptions / ajax / form submissions ā€“ thanks to @lwc, see the pull request
  • Stop an SQL syntax warning being displayed when running the send page from the command line ā€“ thanks to @duncanc , see the pull request

Upgrading

Upgrade from releases older that phpList 3.3.7-RC1 following the usual upgrade process

Use your phpList as normal, and report any new problems you find.

Reporting issues

Thanks for the credit! Shouldnā€™t this version also contain my PDF patch (view it instead of download it)?

That was already included in phpList 3.4.2 :slight_smile:

Oh, now I see v3.4.2 RC used manual linking, not @, so I wasnā€™t notified.
Feel free to re-edit it for future searches/record. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the heads up!

That somehow broke your link thoughā€¦can you check?
I assume itā€™s supposed to be automatic like in the forum.

Yes, itā€™s supposed to be automatic however, copying and pasting from the forum worked.
