| 1 | +## v6.0.0 (2023-06-08) |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +This version has been in the works for a few years. It includes several new features that were highly requested, numerous bug fixes, and aggresively encourages migrating from the old Google Universal Analytics to the new Analytics 4. |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +#### Breaking changes |
| 6 | + |
| 7 | +- As of July 2023, Google Universal Analytics is going away and being replaced by Google Analytics 4. Beautiful Jekyll sites that still use the old analytics tag will show a warning to encourage them to move to Analytics 4 (#1096). |
| 8 | +- More control over RSS feed sharing: previously, an RSS feed was *always* generated, and if the config setting `rss-description` was set then there was an RSS icon in the footer. Now, an RSS feed is only generated when the config setting `rss-description` exists, and an RSS footer icon is only shown if `rss: true` is set in the `social-network-links` config settings. |
