🎆 ChurchCRM 6.8.0: A Modernized Foundation for 2026

Happy New Year! As we continue through a peaceful and productive January, the ChurchCRM team is excited to announce Version 6.8.0. This release marks a major milestone in our 2026 roadmap, focusing on modernizing our infrastructure to make the system faster, more secure, and more accessible to the global church.

🖥️ A Reimagined Kiosk System

We have completely redesigned and modernized the Kiosk System.

  • Redesigned Interface: The Kiosk now features a fresh, more intuitive design for your check-in and attendance needs.
  • Modern Infrastructure: We’ve migrated the Kiosk to a "Webpack" build system. While this is a technical change, for you it means a faster, more reliable experience with a significantly more maintainable codebase for future features.

🛡️ Critical Security & Stability

Our commitment to making ChurchCRM a "fortress of peace" for your data continues with important security hardening:

  • Library Upgrades: We have upgraded core internal tools (like pdfmake, qs, and @cypress/request) to their latest versions. These updates patch known vulnerabilities and ensure your reporting tools are stable and secure.
  • Streamlined Settings: We’ve simplified administrative settings and removed outdated data export options that are no longer necessary, reducing clutter and potential security risks.

🌍 One World, One Mission

We are celebrating a major milestone in our translation efforts. This release includes the latest audit of our supported languages, ensuring that the software remains welcoming to all.

Locales at 99% to 100% Completion:
Afrikaans, Amharic, Arabic, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Korean, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese (Portugal & Brazil), Romanian, Russian, Spanish (Spain, Argentina, Colombia, Mexico, & El Salvador), Swahili, Swedish, Tamil, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

💡 New Year Tip: If your language isn't yet at 100%, you can use AI Chat systems (like ChatGPT or Gemini) to translate and format our files in minutes. It's a great way to serve your local community in 2026!

🌟 Legacy of the 6.7.x Series

Version 6.8.0 also includes all the major improvements from our recent releases:

  • International Phone Reliability: Full support for global phone numbers without truncation.
  • Mobile Self-Registration: A modern interface for families joining via their smartphones.
  • Family Pledge Dashboard: A dedicated view for families to track their financial journey.
  • Security Patches: Includes critical fixes for XSS and SQL injection vulnerabilities.

⚙️ Performance & Cleanup

  • Inner Beauty: We’ve performed deep "spring cleaning" on the code, removing obsolete CSV export test cases and refining the system's "bootstrap" process to help ChurchCRM load and run faster.

🎁 Moving Forward Together

ChurchCRM is a gift from the community to the community. We recommend all users on the 6.x path update to 6.8.0 to enjoy the redesigned Kiosk and latest security protections.
