Security fixes and vulnerability patches
The share feature is now restricted to a special group that effectively prevents general users from accessing it. This helps reduce unintended sharing and gives administrators tighter control over who can use sharing capabilities.
New functionality added to Odoo
Mailing list contacts now include a graph view and ready-made filters to help teams monitor subscriptions, unsubscriptions, and bounced emails. This makes it easier for marketing users to understand list health and audience engagement over time.
Original PR description
...iptions and unsubscriptions + custom filters provided - Task: https://www.odoo.com/web?debug=#id=9618&view_type=form&model=project.task - Pad: https://pad.odoo.com/p/r.Lgn9WTUeZrpgZeSZ
Enhancements to existing features
The contact popup now includes a person's title, making key contact details easier to see and confirm when viewing or editing contact records. This is a small usability improvement for users managing customer, vendor, or partner information.
Original PR description
As a contact-specific information, it would be nice to display the title in the contact modal form.
Point of Sale now checks cash journals more appropriately when cash control is involved and shows clearer warning messages instead of technical error details. This makes payment setup issues easier for users to understand and avoids exposing confusing traceback information in popups.

Administrators can now enable debugging for selected server actions when the server is started with the appropriate option. This helps teams investigate automation issues more easily while keeping the capability controlled to reduce misuse in hosted environments.
Original PR description
This adds functionality to allow debugging of server actions through the Python debugger. It consists of both a server startup option (to protect against misuse on SaaS), and a new boolean on ir.actions.server that determines which server actions to debug.
The project task Kanban status options were reordered to make task progress easier to understand and use. This improves day-to-day project tracking without changing the underlying task workflow.

Resolved issues and error corrections
The stock Incoterms form now displays field labels correctly, making the page easier for users to understand and complete. This small layout adjustment improves clarity without changing any business process or data behavior.

Features or functions removed from Odoo
The blog module no longer includes its separate blog post history feature or related comparison tools. This removes functionality that is expected to be replaced by a broader website page versioning system in the future, simplifying the blog area in the meantime.
