| 9 | = New and Noteworthy (since XWiki 4.5.3) = | ||

| 14 | |||
| 15 | === Extension Updater === | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | We added a new section to the [[Extension Manager>>extensions:Extension.Extension Manager Application]] administration UI that lists the available extension updates. | ||
| 18 | |||

| 22 | |||
| 23 | === New wiki mode step === | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | By default you can now get the same distribution wizard you used to have for main wiki only on subwikis too. When enabled it means that each wiki administrator is able to take care of his own wiki upgrade and farm administrator will only deal with main wiki. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | There are two modes: | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | * ALL IN ONE: the former Distribution Wizard behavior where everything is done at main wiki level | ||
| 30 | * WIKI: on main wiki only the main wiki is upgraded and each wiki gets its own Distribution Wizard and its own status | ||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | A new step to setup the upgrade mode has been added. | ||
| 33 | |||

| 35 | |||
| 36 | == WYSIWYG Editor improvements == | ||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | === Automatic Paste Cleaning in WYSIWYG Editor === | ||
| 39 | |||
| 40 | Starting with this version, whenever you paste some content into the rich text area of the WYSIWYG Editor that content is (by default) automatically cleaned before being inserted into the rest of the content. | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | You can disable the automatic cleaning from the WYSIWYG Editor administration section if you wish: | ||
| 43 | |||
| 44 | {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki50M2@WYSIWYGEditor-AdminSection-cleanPasteAutomatically.png"/}} | ||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | === Office Import using the Office Macro === | ||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | We added an option to the [[WYSIWYG Editor>>platform:Features.WysiwygEditor]]'s Import Office Document dialog to allow you to import an office file using the [[Office Macro>>extensions:Extension.Office Macro]]. This is useful if you don't plan to edit the content of the office file after the import or if you don't want to mix the content of the office file with the content of the wiki page. | ||
| 49 | |||
| 50 | {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki50M1@xwe-importOfficeDocumentDialog.png"/}} | ||
| 51 | |||
| 52 | The generated wiki syntax looks like this: | ||
| 53 | |||
| 54 | {{code language="none"}} | ||
| 55 | {{office attachment="presentation.odp"/}} | ||
| 56 | {{/code}} | ||
| 57 | |||
| 58 | Of course, you need to have the Office server connected in order to use this feature. | ||

| 115 | Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything. | ||
