Koha 3.14.0-beta is a major release, that comes with many new features.
Koha 3.14.0 is a major release, that comes with many new features.
Among the major chances is the introduction of a new default public catalog
theme called "Bootstrap". The Bootstrap theme offers a responsive
design for the public catalog, supporting both desktop browsers and mobile
devices. New installations of Koha 3.14.0 will use the Bootstrap theme
by default.
It includes 13 features, 161 enhancements and 456 bugfixes.
The 'prog' and 'CCSR' public catalog themes are deprecated as of the release
of Koha 3.14.0. Existing Koha sites are encouraged to switch to the Bootstrap
theme as soon as convenient. The 'prog' and 'CCSR' OPAC themes are
slated to be completely removed in the second major release of Koha after
3.14.0, i.e., in the release currently contemplated for November 2014.
It includes 13 features, 161 enhancements and 471 bugfixes.
