New functionality added to Odoo
Website editors can now add an FAQ roller snippet that cycles content with a fade in/out effect. This gives businesses a more dynamic way to present common questions and answers on their website pages.
Enhancements to existing features
Reporting views now show transaction amounts in their original currency across Sales, Purchase, and Point of Sale. This makes it easier to analyze business performance and filter purchase reporting by currency when working with multi-currency operations.

Odoo now supports internal-only message types that are visible to employees but hidden from public and portal users. This improves customer-facing communication by allowing teams, such as sales, to follow and discuss internal activities without exposing those updates externally.
Original PR description
Starting from now, subtypes can be internal. This means that only employees (group_user members) can see the messages with this subtype. This feature replaces and enhances the 'log a note = no subtype = internal only' feature. Public and portal users cannot see internal messages. This allows to have subtypes and a follow mechanism that works for employees and is not visible for external people. Its first use will be for Crm Activities, allowing to have custom subtypes visible only for salesman and not send to the customer.
Public visitors who want to comment on specific blog paragraphs are now directed to sign in first instead of posting with just a name and email. This makes the comment experience clearer for readers and helps ensure comments come from authenticated users.

Creating an employee from an existing user now automatically copies the user's email, full name, and avatar. This reduces manual data entry, saves time during employee setup, and helps avoid typos when onboarding many users.
Original PR description
When creating new Employee and liking to the existed user - this fix will populate not only email address field, but also full name and avatar image. That should save a lot of time and avoid typos - especially when you start from scratch and have to convert 30+ users into employees
Resolved issues and error corrections
The website app no longer depends on mail and sharing components unless they are actually needed. This keeps installations lighter and reduces unnecessary links between apps without changing the user-facing website experience.
