Matomo 3.13.4
We are proud to announce Matomo 3.13.4: a new release of Matomo Analytics.
What’s new?
In this new release we are aiming to solve a couple of small regressions that were recently introduced, as well as making a few minor improvements. We’re also making Matomo faster and more secure.
In terms of bugs, a few issues were fixed around the recent SameSite cookie browser changes, including a regression where “Remember me” was not working anymore. Some minor PHP 7.4 compatibility issues were fixed.
If you are not yet running PHP 7.2, admin users will see a notification in the User Interface reminding them to upgrade the PHP version. Matomo 4 will require PHP 7.2.
Matomo is now a bit faster: some SQL queries were optimised, and other performance issues fixed for example around invalidating archives less aggressively.
We are grateful for all community members who reported feedback and suggestions, our awesome team of translators for their work, and our Premium features customers and Matomo Cloud hosting customers for their amazing support.
