Pimcore 5.6 enhances productivity for editors
New Features
Multi-select in trees
Makes editors work easier. Enables moving or deleting multiple items, such as documents, assets or data objects, in their trees at once. Also adds faster batch assignments for multiple relations in data objects and documents. What a great, highly awaited new feature! See the video above to watch it in action.

Better batch editing dialog
The batch editing feature can be used to modify multiple data objects at the same time. We have improved the UI of this feature.
Improvements for the Many-To-Many Data Object Relation Data-Type
We now provide the possibility to configure the visible fields of the assigned data-objects in the editing widget. It is also now possible to perform batch editing for these fields.
New Grid-Configuration Dialog for structured Data Object
Ensures a clear overview. All available tools & configurations are now structured into separate and meaningfully labeled panels.

New Payment Provider PayU
Was integrated into the eCommerce framework. The Netherlands based company offers more than 300 payment methods and processes approximately 1.2 million payments every single day.

WebP Support for Image Thumbnails
Pimcore CMS/UX now natively supports WebP by default. This allows automated conversion from other image formats to WebP and delivering WebP images to compatible browsers. WebP is an emerging image format by Google. It's designed to provide a better-optimized compression algorithm than JPG and PNG with the objective of reducing file sizes with minimal quality loss. That means faster websites consuming less bandwidth. Amongst web browsers, Google Chrome and Opera already support WebP.

Improvements
Standardized naming of relational object data-types and document editables
We renamed them to more widely used terms, inspired by other frameworks such as Doctrine and Eloquent. Examples: Many-To-One Relation (formerly Href), Many-To-Many Relation (formerly Multihref).
