v1.3.0

The v1.3.0 release is built around three themes: recurring transactions, user-managed currencies, and a jump from 2 to 11 UI languages. Transactions can also be saved without a category now, and that spending finally shows up in the budget. Everything is a drop-in upgrade — no configuration changes, no manual migration steps.

Recurring transactions #

Save a bill or paycheck as a repeating template instead of re-entering it every month. Econumo tracks the next due date for you and never posts anything automatically — you stay in control of exactly when a payment lands.

To set one up:

1. Open Settings → Recurring transactions (under Finances).
2. Tap + Add transaction.
3. Pick Income, Transfer, or Expense, choose the account, enter the Amount, and set a Category if you want one.
4. Set Repeats to Weekly, Every 2 weeks, Monthly, Every 3 months, or Yearly, then tap Add to save the template.

Once a template is due, its next occurrence shows up as a Not posted row right inside the account’s transaction list — tap that row to post it in one step. From the Recurring transactions list itself, each template’s ⋮ menu lets you Post it immediately, Edit it, or Delete it.

Note The schedule advances with proper month-end handling — the 31st becomes Feb 28, then Mar 31 again, so nothing drifts over time. Creating a template from an existing transaction also links that transaction into the series.

User-managed currencies #

Create your own currency — a rewards-points balance, a family “chore bucks” system, or any currency your instance’s rate provider doesn’t cover — with a single fixed exchange rate against the instance’s base currency.

To add one:

1. Open Settings → Currencies (under Classification).
2. Tap + Create currency.
3. Fill in Name, Code, an optional Symbol, and the number of Decimal places.
4. Set the fixed Exchange rate against the base currency (e.g. 1 USD = 10 PTS), then tap Create.

Your own currencies work through shared accounts and budgets just like the built-in ones, and appear under My currencies while the server-managed ones sit under Econumo currencies. Every currency — global or your own — can be hidden from the pickers you don’t use with the toggle next to it, or all at once with Disable all.

Note Global currencies stay admin/CLI/rate-provider managed — only your own currencies get a fixed rate you set yourself.

Nine new languages #

Econumo’s UI now speaks German, French, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, and Simplified Chinese, on top of English and Russian — 11 languages in total, each a complete catalogue covering the UI, server-rendered error messages, and transactional email.

To switch languages:

1. Open Settings → Profile.
2. Tap Language.
3. Pick your language from the list — the UI updates immediately.

The same picker is also reachable from the sign-in and registration pages, before you’re even logged in.

More in this release #

• Transactions without a category — the category field is now optional on regular income and expenses. Spending with no category appears in the budget as a read-only Uncategorized element instead of being silently left out of the totals.
• Fuzzy search on the classification pages — Categories, Tags, Payees, and Currencies all gained an instant filter (the search field/icon next to the page heading), so long lists no longer mean scrolling.
• The CLI no longer logs plaintext secrets: user:create and user:change-password used to write their full argument vector — including the password — to the debug log.
• Two dependency advisories closed in the frontend build toolchain (postcss, @hono/node-server).
• Deleting an account no longer makes a transfer disappear from the other account until the next refresh.
• A custom currency that was only pinned by a since-deleted account can be deleted again — currency deletion is now always a soft delete.
• Read-only shared accounts are greyed out and unselectable in the transaction pickers, instead of being offered and then rejected on save.
• Bigger touch targets in the account/category/payee dropdowns on mobile, and no more iOS zoom when tapping a picker.
• Dependency updates across the Go and frontend stacks.

Upgrading #

Drop-in for self-hosters: pull the new image and restart. Database migrations (including the new recurring_transactions table) run automatically on boot. No .env changes are required.
