We have released v4.3.8 bug fix and v4.4.0 with many enhancements!

v4.3.8 is a regular bug fix release. So existing users should upgrade immediately.

ChangeLog: https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...4.3.8.html
Upgrading Guide: https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...e_438.html

v4.4.0 is a minor upgrade. It includes enhancements and bug fixes.

Unfortunately, there are some breaking changes in v4.4.0, so please upgrade with caution.
Please read ChangeLog and Upgrading Guide very carefully.

You must update public/index.php and spark file and some Config files including the new app/Config/Routing.php.

And some of the default Config values in the Config files have changed, but existing apps do not break because Config files are not updated automatically. 

This release contains over 20 enhancements. A few things I want to highlight:

- The Debug Toolbar's "Hot Reload" feature
- Auto Routing (Improved) has new feature "Module Routing", and "Default Method Fallback" for more flexible handling of URIs

You can see the list of enhancements in https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...hancements

ChangeLog: https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...4.4.0.html
Upgrading Guide: https://codeigniter4.github.io/userguide...e_440.html

Update: Config files for "Hot Reloading" were missing in "Mandatory File Changes":
See the development version of the User Guide for now:

- https://codeigniter4.github.io/CodeIgnit...events-php

I just installed 4.4 and all look good!
However hot reloading didn't work before I copied all the config files, that has been upgraded (those listed under All Changes).
Anyways, thanks for all the hard work!

Hello! I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying the update. With a bit of struggle, all my websites and my CMS are running on version 4.4.0!

I have a question about how the hot reload bar works. I didn't quite understand it, could you please explain?

Before now, when you update pages of your website, for example, change some text, you will need to go to your browser to click on the reload button. With the hot reloading feature, the system automatically detects changes in files within your app directory and reload your browser for you. See docs.

Yes. All is good. You just have to pay attention to all the config files that has been altered.

@Frederik Thank you for reporting!
That should have been documented.

I sent a PR to fix the docs: https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4/pull/7862
