5 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.
6
7 The release brings the ability to define default notification filters for new users and paves the way for adding metadata inside Extensions (such as being able to indicate the Rendering macros that an Extension provides; This will allow for future use cases such as exposing all available macros from inside your wiki, even for extensions that you haven't installed yet!). Security has been tightened by not allowing redirection to other domains without an explicit consent. Last but not least, this release brings several developer improvements: Localization REST endpoint, a Syntax Registry, LESS compilation for WebJars, and more.

15 === Moved Modules ===
16
17 * The [[Help Center Application>>extensions:Extension.Help Center Application.WebHome]] has been retired and its content integrated in the [[Help Application>>extensions:Extension.Help Application]], for the following reasons:
18 ** 2 extensions must not share the same pages
19 ** It’s logical that the help is in sync with what it documents
20 ** contrib extensions should be minimized for XS, all of XS deps should be in the XWiki GitHub organization (since they are maintained by the XS dev team), and preferably inside ##xwiki-platform## when possible.
21 ** Simpler to manage XS releases
22

87 == Issues specific to XWiki 13.3-rc-1 ==
88
89 This release introduced a new security mechanism to prevent unwanted redirection (details can be found [[here>>doc:.Entry006.WebHome]]). This mechanism might need a proper setup of ##url.trustedDomains## property. In case it would create unwanted behaviour, you can always switch it off by editing your ##xwiki.properties## config file and adding:
90
91 {{code language="properties"}}
92 url.trustedDomainsEnabled=false
93 {{/code}}
94
95 == API Breakages ==
