phpList 3.5.3 has been released

phpList 3.5.3 is now available for download, including Matomo Analytics Integration, PHPMailer update and 5 other changes.

Matomo Integration is now available as an alternative to Google Analytics. You can choose between Matomo or Google Analytics in the Settings page of your account.
Similarly to the current GA parameters, when selected, each URL will have four additional query parameters that will be displayed and can be edited on the Finish tab when composing a campaign. The data is not collected, stored or viewed in phpList.

Special thanks to our community member Duncan Cameron for implementing this feature.
