This release fixes a bug that prevented the creation of new pages when the database was still completely empty. This was introduced in 5.3.27 and was not detected due to another error in the automated test pipeline. In addition, the form_session_data insert tag can now also handle array data.
Changelog of the fixed issues in Contao 5.3.28:
- #8175 Fix an SQL error if there are no pages at all (aschempp)
- #8167 Handle array values in the `form_session_data` insert tag (leofeyer)
- #8165 Check the default table options in the `RememberMeMigration` (leofeyer)
