Websites now start with Odoo's default theme installed, making the initial setup clearer for users. Since themes can now be switched from the customization panel, users get a defined starting point while keeping flexibility to choose another look later.
This update makes the website editor easier to use by redesigning snippet options, simplifying controls, and adding quick movement buttons for page sections and columns. It also improves anchor creation by generating and copying links automatically, helping users build and edit pages faster with fewer manual steps.

Improves the Field Service workflow by choosing more suitable projects when creating tasks, avoiding unwanted automatic assignment to the current user, and refining how task lists and forms open. It also improves demo data, labels, worksheet template visibility, and report signing alignment so setup and day-to-day use feel clearer and more consistent.
