MODX Evo Custom 1.1b-d7.1.1: Release Notes and Upgrade Context

MODX Evo Custom 1.1b-d7.1.1 was the kind of release that mattered in day-to-day project work: not because it reinvented the platform, but because it reduced friction in the places teams hit most often.

Highlights from the build

• Fixes around mail handling, including SMTP-related issues.
• Updates to eForm-related behavior.
• A PHPMailer refresh.
• Performance work such as speeding up tag parsing routines.
• Manager-side improvements and extra helper additions.

Releases like this still matter because they capture the practical maintenance story of Evolution CMS: steady compatibility work, incremental manager improvements, and targeted fixes that kept production sites moving forward without a dramatic migration path.
