Andy's in a tent somewhere and Myq is traveling through Southeast Asia, so this month's town hall is a lean one. No core release, but Franz September will bring one. Expect security fixes and smaller improvements rather than big new features, largely driven by what he called the whirlwind of agentic AI security testing hitting open source projects right now. In the meantime there's a strong batch of new marketplace add-ons and a new Swiss partner worth introducing.
New in the Marketplace
Five add-ons this month, and two of them are free.
Top Navigation Bar PLUS
Top Navigation Bar PLUS is a full header solution: branding, page navigation with configurable depth, standard dropdowns or multi-column mega menus per top-level page, search, language switching, an account dropdown, and optional Community Store cart integration. The mega menu configuration is genuinely deep, with independent width and positioning modes. Active-path highlighting marks the current page and every parent in its navigation path, with aria-current applied correctly to only the actual current page. Requires Concrete 9.5+ and a Bootstrap 5-compatible theme. Free under MIT, German translation included.
Hero Image PLUS
Hero Image PLUS is a standalone hero and banner block that doesn't touch the core Hero Image block. You get sortable heading, rich text, image, icon, button, spacer, and divider elements, single-level responsive groups with drag-and-drop between them, separate background and content overlays, three alignment templates, and optional scroll parallax that respects reduced-motion preferences. Same requirements as above: Concrete 9.5+, Bootstrap 5 theme, free under MIT, German translation included.
Table Block
Table Block takes a different approach to tables. Instead of simple rows and columns of text, each cell is effectively its own content block, which opens up layout possibilities the standard HTML table approach doesn't. $10 in the marketplace.
FormPDF PRO
FormPDF PRO converts Express Form submissions into formatted PDFs automatically. Build a template with the no-code builder, raw HTML, or an external file, then create a rule that decides when it fires and where the finished PDF goes: File Manager, email attachment, or a secure time-limited download link. Every rule execution is logged in detail, which is a nice touch since form automation tends to fail quietly. $89 self-hosted with a year of updates, or $8/mo on SaaS hosting. Requires 9.4+.
GMB Simple Testimonials
GMB Simple Testimonials is a complete testimonial workflow: a dashboard section with approval moderation and drag-and-drop ordering, plus four frontend blocks (carousel with two templates, list with four layout options, featured testimonial, and a public submission form with CSRF and spam protection). Submissions land in the dashboard as pending and email the site owner with approve and delete links. $28, works on 9.0+.
Site in the Wild: Züger Treuhand
This month's site is Züger Treuhand AG, a fiduciary and tax firm in Siebnen, Switzerland that's been serving small and medium businesses since January 1990. Their headline, "Vertrauen, das bleibt" (trust that lasts), sets the tone for a clean, confident site organized around five service areas: fiduciary services, accounting, HR and payroll, taxes, and VAT.
It's a good example of a professional services site that doesn't try too hard. Clear service architecture, a news section, a proper team page, and a nav link straight through to their AbaWeb client portal, which matters for a firm where clients need regular access to their own records.
The site was built by uniqyou, a creative digital design studio in Schindellegi and a brand new Concrete partner. Their tagline is "Not lost in Space," which tells you something about their personality, and their own site is built on Concrete too. Franz spoke directly with Simon from their team. Welcome to the partner network.
Back in September
The team will be back in full force next month with a core release and the usual lineup. Enjoy the rest of summer.
