phpList 3.3.6 is now available to install, and introduces public categorisation of lists to subscribe pages, several fixes, and minor improvements.
See the Download page for installation and upgrade instructions.

Changes in this release

Public categorisation of lists

A new option to show lists organised by categories on subscribe pages. Categories from the existing  list categorisation system can now be shown on public pages, making it easier for subscribers to navigate between lists grouped by theme. Categorised lists are shown within an accordion interface element using a responsive two column design.
Thanks to CPS-IT for proposing and sponsoring this feature.

Public categorisation can be enabled system wide, or for individual subscribe pages only. The setting is off by default.

  2. Fix “Add a list” button on import pages;
  3. Check if a domain is available for use by the Terms of Service subscriber attribute and if so use to generate the link to terms. If not, link to the domain index;

  6. Change label from “Views” to “Unique Views” on “View Opens” page;
