1. Improve SQL field type
Allow setting Prompt Text (use as the first option for the field). For example, if you create custom field to display list of users, you can set Prompt Text to Select User to make it more clear for your users.
2. Allow controlling when to show Number Registered Users for your event
Sometime, you only want to show Number Registered User for your event it is greater than certain value (you do not want visitors know that the event has not had anyone or only few users registered for it yet). For that, you can use new added config option called Only Show Number Registered Users If Greater Than Or Equal
3. Improve Events Export/Import
Added free_event_registration_status information to events export/import
4. Allow easier selecting events
If you have too many events, selecting an event from events dropdown (on Registrants Management screen, when you add new Registrant...) could be a challenge. In that case, you can set Enable Select Event From Modal config option to Yes. By doing that, instead of having to find and select an event from a dropdown, you can click on a button to see list of events from modal popup, then search and select the event you want from there.
5. General Code Improvement
As mentioned, we continue the effort of refactoring Events Booking code base to use latest Joomla 1/ Joomla 5 API in this release. That improves code quality of the extension and make sure it will continue working well with future releases of Joomla.
6. Bugs Fixes
Some bugs found, reported by customers and got fixed in this release:
- Coupon Discount is not applied properly when using Shopping Cart
- Only send PDF tickets to group members if it is configured
- Passing correct mime type for ICS file in email
- Fixed selected option is not cleared when clicking on remove icon on some filter dropdowns in the backend
- Allow display plugin outputs properly when multiple events details are being displayed on a single page (using page builder)
- Fixed sending reminder email when 6th reminder is used

- Convert plugins in the extension to use Subscriber Interface (available on Joomla 4+), thus make these plugins work faster
We will still maintain support for Joomla 3, but mostly bugs fixes and minor improvements. Future improvements will only focus for Joomla 4+.
