CakePHP 4.6.0-RC1 Released
The CakePHP core team is happy to announce the first release candidate for CakePHP 4.6.0. The 4.6 release includes features backported from 5.1 and the upcoming 5.2 releases. 4.6.0 is a smaller release, as the core team’s focus is on 5.x now. 4.x feature releases are now driven by primarily by community involvement. The highlights of what is new in 4.6 include:
- RedisEngine now supports a tls option for connecting to redis via a TLS connection.
- Number::formatter() and currency() now support a roundingMode
option to control how rounding is handled.

How you Can Help
You can help deliver 4.6.0 by contributing in one of many ways:
- Check the documentation for mistakes, outdated, unclear or broken examples. We’ve been trying to update the documentation as we go, but there are likely examples or sections we’ve missed.
- Try it out! Give CakePHP 4.6.0 a test drive. Let us know how upgrading went and if there were any rough spots.
- File issues for regressions in existing features, or suggest new features.
