When I submitted the Q3/2025 budget request, one of the most exciting parts of the proposal was the integration of the Search Engine Abstraction Layer (SEAL) into TYPO3. My intention was to address the challenges around search and indexing while also creating a foundation for the next generation of TYPO3 search — including semantic and AI-powered solutions.

Step‑by‑Step Guides are hands-on tutorials focused on completing a single, practical task from start to finish. Here’s what they are, how they differ from traditional documentation, and why they can be a go-to resource when learning or contributing to TYPO3.

The call for community budget ideas for the fourth quarter of 2025 was successful: Nine of nine ideas have made it to the poll. These ideas can now be discussed and TYPO3 Association members can cast their vote.

Georg Ringer provides an update on his Community Budget for Q3/2025: In the third quarter of 2025, I had the opportunity to work on a new extension which improves the workflow for editors.

The versions 13.4.18 and 12.4.37 of the TYPO3 Enterprise Content Management System have just been released.

August saw an open call for Q4 community-budget ideas, a milestone localization update welcoming new language teams, and a heartfelt tribute to Symfony’s Ryan Weaver. It’s a month to propose bold initiatives, amplify global voices, and appreciate mentors who shaped our craft.

It’s that time of year again! The 2025 TYPO3 Conference (25-27 November) and Awards Gala (27 November) in Düsseldorf, Germany, are just around the corner, and we’re thrilled to introduce the expert jury who will be selecting this year’s winners.

The TYPO3 team will be attending DMEXCO. Learn about the most exciting events, learning opportunities and networking taking place in Cologne and the TYPO3 booth.

As August has given way to September it’s time to reflect on what the past month has brought us. Recapping the evaluation of our most recent contributions to the TYPO3 core, we find some remarkable numbers. You guys are truly amazing!

It is with deep sadness that I learned about the passing of Ryan Weaver on 25 August 2025. Ryan was a beloved teacher, Symfony core team member, and a true inspiration in the PHP open source community.
