Today we have released a new software upgrade, which fixes a number of bugs and problems. The calendar updates include fixes to recurring events issues, CalDAV errors, date formats, and other aspects of the program operation. The skins update fixes problems with unwanted layout changes when using the skins on mobile devices, as well as some other improvements. The upgrade is available for download in our customer area.

We have just released a new upgrade to our skins and plugins that includes some fixes and UI improvements. Here's the summary of the changes:
We created a system to fix the default PHP date formatting that swaps the day and month values in the dates formatted as d/m/y. The users in the countries where this formatting is common (for example, Brazil) will have no more problems with creating recurring calendar events.
We discovered that the Google Drive Javascript code imported by the xgoogle_drive plugin interfered with the scrollbar functionality in Roundcube. This problem has now been fixed, and those using the Google Drive plugin should have no more issues when viewing very long messages.

Did you ever have a problem with your email signature images being blocked on the recipient's end? This is a security feature employed by most respectable email services to make sure the sender doesn't have a way of knowing whether or not their emails have been opened.
The same problems plagued our signature plugin. It made it possible for the users to easily create stunning signatures, only for those signatures to be stripped of their images by services like Gmail. We're pleased to announce that this is no longer a problem! We have introduced a new feature to the signature plugin that enables the users to encode and embed their signature images directly into the email. Embedded images pose no security threat and are not stripped by services like Gmail!

We have released a new version of our skins and plugins today. The upgrade focuses on bug fixes and improvements. We eliminated the problems with scroll bars on Elastic-based select boxes; we improved the display handling of invitation events in the calendar; bug fixes were made to the signature plugin; and more.
We recently got some reports that the URL constructed from the PHP $_SERVER variables and used by some of our plugins is not correct on some servers. To get this issue resolved, we added a new config option that allows the admins to specify the URL through which Roundcube can be accessed on their servers. The new config option is called 'overwrite_roundcube_url'. You can find more information about it in the README file of the xframework plugin.

We'd like to let you know that as of February 2020 we are discontinuing the development of the Tag Manager plugin (xtag.) The plugin allowed authorized users to insert HTML, CSS or Javascript code to any Roundcube page without editing the source code files. Although in theory it was an interesting idea, the demand for this plugin was minimal. Those who deploy their own installations of Roundcube and want to modify the looks of their webmail are for the most part knowledgable enough to edit the source files, and those who aren't, run the risk of breaking their webmail by using the Tag Manager improperly.
The latest release of the Tag Manger plugin will remain functional for Roundcube 1.3.x, but we will not be issuing any new upgrades to this plugin in the future.

Happy New Year 2020! We're celebrating the turning of the decade by releasing a new upgrade to our skins and plugins!
To start with, the calendar plugin got better at handling event attendee invitations. When you invite someone to an event and the invitation gets accepted, the event will automatically be displayed in the attendee's calendar. If you're inviting someone who doesn't use Roundcube, he or she will be able to easily import the event to their third-party calendar, since the email now includes the event's ICS file.
The new Elastic-based skins got some fixes to their UI: the display of the sidebar and the menu bar, especially evident in the GMail+ skin when running the advert plugin.
17 Dec 2019
We have released an upgrade to the plugin/skin packages that includes some fixes and improvements, especially applicable to those, who use Roundcube 1.4.x. We fixed the logout page errors; problems with some old config options not working properly on RC 1.4; database query quotation problems on Postgres; and a few other minor issues. The new version of the software is available for download in the customer area of our website.

If you had problems with the calendar not displaying properly the events created using Outlook Synchronizer via CalDAV, you'll be pleased to know that we have just released a new upgrade that fixes this issue. We have also fixed some other calendar problems: being unable to delete single instances of repeated events in some browsers, and not displaying the month translations in the small sidebar calendar for some languges. The newly released upgrade is available for download in our customer area.

It seems like the latest version of the Chrome browser has created some user interface issues with our skins. Today we have released an upgrade that fixes these problems. If you're experiencing any skin-related UI issues on Chrome, download and install the latest version of the skins (and the xskin and xframework plugins) to get them fixed. The latest version of the skins is available in the customer area.
17 Sep 2019
We have just released an upgraded version of the email schedule plugin, which enables the users to delay and schedule the sending of their messages. The upgrade will be especially important to those who write their messages using non-latin characters, as it fixes the encoding problem that occured when editing the scheduled messages. The new version also includes some user interface fixes. If you're currently running the older version of the email scheduler, you can download the latest version by logging in to your Roundcube Plus account.
6 Sep 2019
We have released a software upgrade that includes important security fixes. If you're using the Roundcube Plus plugins we urge you to download the latest version and upgrade as soon as you can. Besides fixing the security issues, we also fixed a few UI problems, upgraded the third party libraries, added some new functionality and new translations. The file upload functions will now re-save the images to reduce their size on the server; you'll be able to give your customers a limited access to their own Roundcube configuration files; and if you're planning to upgrade to Roundcube 1.3.10 released a few days ago, you can rest assured that the skins and plugins will work properly.
Important changes introduced in the latest upgrade:
11 Jul 2019
We're happy to announce that all the plugins are now available in French! With this new addition, the Roundcube Plus plugins are fully or partially translated to six commonly used languages. If you'd like to check out the new French translation or the functionality of the plugins, view our online demo:

If you have used our Weather plugin, you may have noticed that sometimes it had a problem with getting the weather data for some locations. For example, if you wanted to get the weather for Portland, Maine, USA, you'd always get Portland, Oregon instead. This was due to the limitations of the Openweathermap service used by our plugin, which doesn't support narrowing down the location by specify a region or a state.
3 Apr 2019

We've just released a new upgrade to the calendar and framework plugins. The calendar sharing options got updated: it's now possible to choose which users will be notified when a calendar is shared with them. A new color management system helps with assigning colors to calendars and events, and the calendar list UI got refreshed to make sure it's clearer and works properly with all the skins.
