Release Notes

Every Core dna product, release by release, newest first. Each product ships on its own schedule.

2026

37 releases

  1. MCP Server2.1.0

    Languages, currencies and safer edits

    Agents can write product descriptions in each language and prices in each currency, translate pages, posts and FAQs, and every partial edit now starts from the live version.

  2. Platform2026.9

    Books, Custom Field Search and Bug Fixes

    Books, units and book pages now work wherever pages do: in templates, site search, menus and the sitemap. The API can find records by a custom field's value, and the HTTP Request job action only calls public addresses.

  3. Platform2026.8.1

    SVG Resizing Fix

    Wide SVG images now resize to the width requested.

  4. MCP Server2.0.1

    Custom fields on menus and records

    Agents can read and write the custom fields of menus, users, people, products, categories, layouts and books.

  5. Platform2026.8

    Back in Stock Notifications and Bug Fixes

    Visitors can ask to be told when a product or variant is back in stock, and a new Back in stock job event sends them the email. Admin passkeys have their own page.

  6. MCP Server2.0.0

    Jobs, content types and fewer tools

    Agents can build, run and debug complete jobs and create their own content types from chat, with 65 clearer tools in place of 81.

  7. Platform2026.7

    Passkeys, Audit Log API and Bug Fixes

    Members and admin users can sign in with a passkey, and the audit log can be read, searched and added to through the API.

  8. Platform2026.6

    Faceted Search, Blog Posts by Author and Bug Fixes

    Site search can offer facets, so visitors narrow results by brand, size or price and see how many results each option has. Blogs gain an archive of posts by author.

  9. Platform2026.5.2

    Custom Entities and Hooks APIs

    Custom entities and jobs can be managed end to end through the API: definitions, records, triggers, actions and run history. Record and run listings are now paged.

  10. Platform2026.5.1

    Configurable Backend Sessions and Bug Fixes

    Administration sessions can be set to last longer and to stay open while they are in use. Deactivating a user now signs them out at once.

  11. Platform2026.5

    AI Agents

    AI agents arrive in the admin. Ready-made agents proofread posts, improve product descriptions, audit content and review sales, and every change they propose waits in a recommendations inbox to be accepted, rejected or undone.

  12. Platform2026.4.12

    Canonical URLs in Sitemaps and Bug Fixes

    Sitemaps list each record at its canonical URL, so search engines get one address per piece of content. Cart links keep their campaign tracking parameters.

  13. Platform2026.4.11

    External IDs, Product Listings by Tag and Bug Fixes

    Records across the admin can carry an External ID that matches them to their counterpart in an ERP, CRM or PIM. Product descriptions can be listed on the site, on their own or by tag.

  14. Platform2026.4.10

    FAQ Custom URLs and Bug Fixes

    FAQ questions can have a custom URL, like pages. The People listing gains a sortable email column.

  15. Platform2026.4.9

    Stripe Tax

    Stripe Tax joins Avalara as a tax provider, calculating tax against the same Stripe account that takes the payments. Tax on shipping is now part of the checkout total.

  16. Platform2026.4.8

    Book Translations and Site Language

    Book pages can be translated, and visitors can switch between the language versions. The site's language now follows the visitor's choice.

  17. Platform2026.4.7

    Bug Fixes and Improvements

    The colour picker gains a Clear button, with fixes for multi-step forms and for the Loop and HTTP Request steps of jobs.

  18. Platform2026.4.6.1

    Scheduled Publishing Fix

    Scheduled publishing goes live at the right time in every site's timezone, and large files and videos can be streamed and resumed.

  19. Platform2026.4.6

    Scheduled Content Publishing

    Content with a scheduled publish or unpublish date now goes live and expires on time, without waiting for its next save. The SendGrid key can be set per account.

  20. Platform2026.4.5

    Stripe Payment Improvements and Bug Fixes

    Stripe checkout supports payment methods that need an extra step, such as Pix in Brazil, and shows the customer the QR code or instructions to finish paying.

  21. Platform2026.4.4

    Permissions, Sitemap Language Links and Bug Fixes

    Many more admin areas can be permissioned per module, among them Menus, Carts, Discounts, Jobs and Taxes. Sitemaps carry hreflang links between language versions.

  22. Platform2026.4.3

    Content Search, Registration reCAPTCHA and Bug Fixes

    Content tabs gain an in-page search, and user registration can use invisible reCAPTCHA. Large downloads and billable request exports are more reliable.

  23. Platform2026.4.2

    Performance and Reliability Improvements

    Records with long revision histories open and save reliably, and sites can serve more file types as static assets. Email addresses are checked before sending.

  24. Platform2026.4.1

    Payment Form Improvements and Bug Fixes

    Payment forms let customers try again after a failed payment, prevent double submissions and explain PayPal errors in plain words.

  25. Platform2026.4

    Multicurrency Support and Bug Fixes

    Stores can sell in several currencies, with Base, Special, RRP and Cost prices per currency for each product and variant, carried through carts, checkouts, discounts, invoices and orders.

  26. Platform2026.3.1

    Abandoned Cart Detection and Faster File Manager

    Carts left untouched are flagged as abandoned, so a job can send recovery emails. The file manager opens large folder trees much faster.

  27. Platform2026.3

    Connect your website to AI Agents

    The Core dna MCP server connects a site to AI agents such as Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Gemini and Copilot, which carry out content and commerce tasks described in plain English.

  28. Platform2026.2.2

    Faster Billable Requests, Smarter Cache Purging and Bug Fixes

    The Billable Requests page is much faster, and smart cache purging clears only the environments affected.

  29. Platform2026.2.1

    Bug Fixes

    The checkout warns when a fulfilment has no valid shipping rate, with fixes for scheduled publishing and for invoices from payment forms.

  30. Platform2026.2

    Form Payments, Invoice Refunds and Bug Fixes

    Forms can take payments through Stripe, PayPal and PayPal Donate, and paid invoices can be refunded from the admin.

  31. Platform2026.1.6

    Bug Fixes

    Fixes for static assets behind a rewrite, subpages on multi-site installations and the scheduled publish dialog.

  32. Platform2026.1.5

    Collection Area API and Bug Fixes

    The API can remove, insert or append single components in a collection area without resending the whole collection.

  33. Platform2026.1.4

    Quick Actions Menu and Bug Fixes

    An Actions menu in the header of every edit page duplicates, publishes, unpublishes and previews content without leaving the page.

  34. Platform2026.1.3

    Scheduled Sitemap Generation and Bug Fixes

    Sitemaps are generated by a scheduled background worker, and record-type areas print their HTML directly in templates.

  35. Platform2026.1.2

    Filter Preservation, Starred Pages and Bug Fixes

    Listing filters are kept when you come back to a listing, and admin users can star the pages they visit most.

  36. Platform2026.1.1

    Minor Improvements and Bug Fixes

    Checkouts expire after 30 minutes of inactivity by default, and the period can be configured. Fixes for guest checkout and for a first sign-in through OAuth.

  37. Platform2026.1

    Jobs Import/Export

    Jobs can be exported and imported. Routes can be set per site or for the whole account, and XML files can be served as static files.
