| 5 | This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Enterprise>>http://enterprise.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version. | ||

| 8 | |||
| 9 | = New and Noteworthy (since XWiki 5.3 Milestone 2) = | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | [[Full list of issues fixed and Dashboard for 5.3>>http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=11698]]. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | == Import large XARs == | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | It's possible to enable the use of new [[WikiStream>>doc:extensions:Extension.Wiki Stream Module]] framework in standard import action (used in the standard import UI for example). Among other things it allows importing a wiki XAR of pretty much any size. | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | [[WikiStream>>doc:extensions:Extension.Wiki Stream Module]] is too young to be enabled by default and will require heavy testing. In the meantime you can try it by uncommenting {{code}}#xwiki.action.import.xar.usewikistream=1{{/code}} at the end of xwiki.cfg file. | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | == Miscellaneous == | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | * We added a hint to explain the 'No language' value in the language search facet((( | ||
| 22 | {{image reference="search-languageFacet-noLanguageHint.png"/}} | ||
| 23 | ))) | ||
| 24 | * We improved the way a custom interval is specified in the date search facet((( | ||
| 25 | {{image reference="searchDateFacet.png"/}} | ||
| 26 | ))) | ||
| 27 | * Added new configuration parameter for the Link Checker: ##rendering.transformation.linkchecker.excludedReferencePatterns## (See [[Reference documentation>>extensions:Extension.Link Checker Transformation]]). | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | See the [[full list of JIRA issues>>http://jira.xwiki.org/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-printable/temp/SearchRequest.html?jqlQuery=project+in+%28XCOMMONS%2C+XRENDERING%2C+XWIKI%2C+XE%2C+XEM%29+and+status+%3D+Closed+and+resolution+%3D+Fixed+and+fixVersion+%3D+%225.3-rc-1%22&tempMax=1000]] fixed in this release. | ||

| 71 | When upgrading make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg##, ##xwiki.properties## and ##web.xml## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters may have been modified or 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. | ||
