Breaking Changes

Issue #1

The internal implementation of Admin Panel login and register JWTs has fundamentally changed. Projects or plugins relying on undocumented or internal JWT behavior are very likely to break, potentially preventing Admin Panel login.

Migration Steps

  1. 1
    Review the new JWT management modes documentation for Users and Permissions if you customized login/registration flows.
  2. 2
    Review the new JWT management configuration documentation for the Admin Panel if you customized Admin login behavior.

Release Summary

Version 5.24.0 introduces Advanced Session Configuration and fixes a database corruption bug, but it fundamentally changes Admin Panel JWT handling, leading to a deprecation advisory recommending a rollback to 5.23.6.
