Wiki Alias
- When the path mode is enabled, the alias of the wiki is now asked in the wiki creation wizard:
- The default suffix for the wiki alias can be set in xwiki.properties:#-# [Since 5.4.4]
#-# Add a default suffix to the alias of a new wiki in the wiki creation wizard, only when the path mode is used
#-# (see url.standard.multiwiki.isPathBased). If this value is empty, XWiki will try to compute it automatically from
#-# request URL.
#-#
#-# eg: if wiki.alias.suffix is "xwiki.org" and the wiki name "playground"
#-# then the computed alias will be: "playground.xwiki.org".
#-#
#-# The default is:
wiki.alias.suffix=
For Developers
#$services.wiki.user# has new methods called #hasPendingInvitation()# and #hasPendingRequest()#. Same in the #WikiUserManager# interface.

Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes
General Notes
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.
