Month: 2026-01 — Delivered Dynamic Form Configuration Placeholder Support for statamic/cms, enabling using configuration values inside forms by parsing and replacing placeholders in form content with actual config values. This enables dynamic customization for users and reduces manual configuration steps in form creation.

February 2025 monthly summary for statamic/cms focusing on feature delivery and impact. Key feature delivered this month was the Customizable HTTP Exception Rendering API, enabling developers to tailor how HTTP errors are rendered within the CMS via a user-defined callback. No major bugs reported or fixed in this period. Overall these changes enhance CMS extensibility, improve error UX consistency for end-users, and provide a foundation for downstream plugin authors to customize error handling.

January 2025 focused on stabilizing cache behavior in the Laravel framework when used with extended static classes. Delivered a bug fix for the once() cache to ensure distinct caches for parent and child classes, preventing cross-contamination and incorrect behavior in inheritance scenarios. The change involved updating hashFromTrace to correctly capture the class name and adding comprehensive tests to guard against regressions with extended static class usage (testExtendedStaticClassOnceCalls). This work improves reliability and correctness in common caching patterns, aligns with the 12.x maintenance line, and reduces potential bug reports related to static class caching.
