This release primarily fixes a bug in the preloading of reader front end modules, which was introduced in version 5.3.40. In addition, a problem with the authorization check when moving pages has been corrected. Insert tags in link titles of the hyperlink content element are now replaced correctly, and deactivated member groups are reliably filtered out again in the registration module in the front end.
