CodeIgniter v4.6.0 released!

Thank you so much @paulbalandan and the team!!!

Upgrade went smooth, it's feels like performance got improved.

CodeIgniter is the best!

Hello everyone,

I'm new to the forum.

This is great news for us, as this version comes with numerous enhancements, new features, and bug fixes.

Config > Routing > autoroute = true for use dynamic parameter is not works on this version..

Many thanks for the further development and PHP 8.4 support!
Will soon test the update with https://packagist.org/packages/tatter/patches

Hi,
Just change the content in app/Config/Kint.php to the new version here : 
Kint 4.6.0

After updating to v4.6 (composer update), copying new version of Kint.php fixed the issue, thanks.

Why aren't there any new features? For a long time, updates have only included bug fixes and version upgrades, with no announcements of new features.

Your website is not very user-friendly. The user guide lacks realistic examples in many sections and doesn’t provide detailed explanations. I think this is one of the main reasons why other frameworks are preferred. Although CI4 is very simple, the documentation is not entirely clear.

Personally, I'm happy that CI4 is fairly stable. The main remit of CI is to provide PHP with web capabilities, with very good performance, and a light footprint. Adding several "nice to have" features may result in a larger, slower framework.

A colleague of mine has been learning Laravel. It has grown into a very large framework. It offers much, but takes a *long* time to learn how to use properly. And it is of course considerably slower than CI4.

Regarding the documentation, it's pretty good in my opinion. It's not perfect, but I've read far worse commercially based documentation. I guess if anyone has suggestions to improve the docs they can AFAIK get involved.

There are some unclear expressions in the document, such as: 
https://codeigniter.com/user_guide/model...del-events

beforeDelete  afterDelete
"id = primary key of row being passed to.."
The id here should be an array collection
