Summary

This is the latest version of FusionAuth, released on May 5, 2021, with several enhancements and bug fixes. Account email verification gating has been added, which requires a paid license to block users from completing their login until they verify their email address. Application themes have also been improved, allowing tenants to create separate themes for hosted login pages. Additionally, safe links in passwordless emails have been addressed, fixing an issue with network security devices and email clients interfering with the authentication process. The release includes many other enhancements, such as transparent unique username generation, API updates, and more. Users are advised to read the release notes carefully before upgrading their self-hosted or cloud-based FusionAuth instances.
