This release contains several new features

  • You can now crop contact photos on upload
  • Display age of death to relationship sidebar if the person is dead
  • There is a new name order, with the nickname in first position
  • The title for birthday reminder on decease people is better

We also added two more langages: Chinese Traditional and Japanese.

🌍Thanks so much to our contributors and translators for their work.

New environment variable

This release also introduce a new environment variable: APP_FORCE_URL.
It allows you to force using APP_URL as base url of your application.
You should not need it, but it's useful to install Monica in a subdirectoy url, like https://my.domain/monica

New command lines

  • php artisan monica:test-email allows you to test your email sending configuration
  • php artisan monica:passport install encryption keys and Personal Access Client if needed

Docker image

Our docker image has slightly changed.
Sources files are now back in /var/www/monica directory.
If you used to have a mounted volume in that directory, you should remove it, and keep only the mounted volume for storage.
See more examples in the dedicated documentation.

DAV Connection

CardDAV or CalDAV client connection now requires an API token as the password. Using login+password directly will not work anymore.
Go to /settings/api to generate a new token and use it as the password.

See also this documentation about CardDAV client.
