Contao Open Source CMS 5.5.5

Contao 5.5.5, a new version of the Contao open source CMS, has been released.

This release fixes a bug introduced in 5.5.4 with the backward compatibility for error templates, which prevented the correct activation of the maintenance mode (and thus also any update possibility via Contao Manager).

Changelog of the fixed issues in Contao 5.5.5:

  • #8195 Adjust the service_unavailable namespace for the maintenance mode ( zoglo )
