Testing Mautic 5

We’re readying to release a new Beta version of Mautic, complete with all the awesome features and bug fixes we’ve been working hard on during the past months! :hammer_and_wrench:

Some of our bug fixes are in the pipeline, while promising features are twinkling on the horizon, waiting to be unveiled. And guess what? You’ve got the power to help everything go smoother :hatching_chick:

Testing is where the magic happens :sparkles: and the coolest part is that anyone can take part in this quest. Yes, you read that right! No special technical expertise is required, it’s all in the browser! :earth_americas:

I even made a video if you find that easier to follow, check it out below! :video_camera:

Remember, every bug squashed :bug: is a milestone! It’s about taking us further along the path to a better, stronger, more reliable Mautic :rocket:

Marketing strategists … we have a challenge for you! :chart_with_upwards_trend:

Is marketing your thing? Do you know your outbound from your inbound? Your TOFU from your BOFU? Fancy helping Mautic to become more well known and widely used?

Last week we had two great strategy workshops and now we are planning some major projects for the coming year including:

  • Developing an inbound marketing plan
  • Creating an ambassadors program
  • Working on a launch strategy for the new membership tiers and benefits

Calling all website developers (Drupal :droplet: )

Are you a Drupal developer? We have some new features we want to build on our website including:

  • A searchable database of partners
  • A searchable database of case studies (linked to partners)
  • An experts database of members (individuals and companies) of the General Assembly
  • A jobs board

Website designers - we :heart: you!

We also want to completely overhaul the website and build a new template - we would love to hear from designers and front-end (Drupal) developers, as well as marketers who can help us to optimise for conversion.

Documentation writers ahoy! :ring_buoy:

We are :straight_ruler: this close to getting our new developer docs launched! We need to move and update the docs on MVC to take into account our latest development with Mautic 5.
