At our next dev meeting on Oct 7th, we will be talking about development priorities for Backdrop 1.21.
Since we last asked for feature ideas in the forum just over a year ago, a number of the suggestions have gotten into core. Items like the following:
- Better Taxonomy permissions
- Merge all update pages
- exposed filter in the image library
We've also made big progress on Configuration Recipes.
This seems like a great opportunity to open up the discussion once again to prioritize existing ideas and/or suggest new ones.
What would you MOST like to see in Backdrop 1.21 (or beyond)?

Sudipto, you may have more luck in the CiviCRM forums for this as this looks like a CiviCRM error. Many people use Stripe in Backdrop without issue, albeit it can take a bit to get setup.
