The second bugfix release of the Contao 4.13 LTS series contains, as always, the latest bugfixes of version 4.9. In addition, some routing bugs that only affect version 4.13 were fixed. In particular, this concerns priorities for 404 pages and pages that require an item in the URL. Moreover, empty articles are now created for new pages even if no layout exists yet, which should simplify the setup process for a new installation.
