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.

Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 5.1 7 This is a stabilisation release focusing on the Nested Pages feature which was introduced in XWiki 7.2.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 6.4 8 Lots of polishing has been done for the Nested Pages feature integration, targeting the consequences on the UI redesign and the changes at applications level. The release includes a couple of bug fixes, a few dependency upgrades and new UI extension points available for extension developers.

Vincent Massol 9.1 10 {{error}}
11 After XWiki 7.3 was released, we've noticed that when using the EXE distribution on Windows, XWiki fails to start. This is now [[fixed>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12814]] in future XWiki versions but if you don't want to upgrade now you can follow [[this workaround>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12806?focusedCommentId=88765&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-88765]].
Vincent Massol 10.1 12
13 Actually, to be more precise, using the EXE distribution will work IF you install XWiki in a non read-only directory (i.e. not in Program Files which is read only).

Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 20 == Flamingo ==
Vincent Massol 1.1 21
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.11 22 === Navigation bar ===
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.9 23
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.22 24 The user's avatar is now displayed between the search icon and the drawer icon:(((
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.11 25 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@avatar.png"/}}
26 )))
Vincent Massol 1.1 27
Vincent Massol 6.1 28 Also, the search bar at the top of the screen has been improved a bit. When the user clicks on the search button, the search bar is opened and gets the focus. Then, when the users clicks in some other place, the search bar is closed, slowly.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.11 29
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 30 * Closed:(((
31 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@search-closed.png"/}}
32 )))
33 * Open:(((
34 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@search.png"/}}
35 )))
36
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.16 37 === Menus ===
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.14 38
39 The "More Options" menu has been split and a new "Page Administration" menu has been introduced:

45 {{/gallery}}
46
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.24 47 === Delete ===
48
49 * The delele UI now uses the 'title' and 'location' columns to list the children that may be affected by the delete action:(((
50 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73RC1@deleteUI.png" width="33%"/}}
51 )))
52
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.13 53 === Drawer ===
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.9 54
55 * In the Drawer (top right menu), the pages for which the user doesn't have permissions to access are not displayed anymore.
56
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.14 57 == Breadcrumb ==
58
59 When the hierarchy of a Nested Pages is long, we do not display it entirely any more. Instead, we display a limited version, that the user can expand by clicking on the "ellipsis" character ('...'):
60
61 * limited:(((
62 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@breadcrumb-limited.png"/}}
63 )))
64 * full:(((
65 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@breadcrumb-full.png"/}}
66 )))
67
68 Note that this behavior have also been added to all hierarchy breadcrumbs, including location of search results, etc...
69
70 (((
71 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@breadcrumb-search-results.png"/}}
72 )))
73
74 The breadcrumb has now support for tree navigation. Each breadcrumb element has a drop down tree that shows the siblings and the children, helping you navigate easily around the wiki.
75
76 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@breadcrumbsTreeNavigation.png"/}}
77
Vincent Massol 6.2 78 The breadcrumb tree navigation doesn't show the document translations any more when multilingual is disabled, because navigating to a document translation when multilingual is off doesn't have any effect: the default translation is displayed instead. You can still see the translations in the [[Page Index Tree>>extensions:Extension.Index Application||anchor="HAllDocumentsinatreeview"]] though.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.26 79
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.17 80 == Flamingo Theme Editor ==
81
82 The [[extensions:Extension.Flamingo Theme Application]] now handles the ##@lessCode## field. It means that you can add any code, written with LESS, to your theme and see the result live!
83
84 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@LESSCode.png" width="40%"/}}
85
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.14 86 == Page Index ==
87
88 Since we have introduced the concept of Nested Spaces we needed to replace the Space column in the LiveTable with a more generic solution. Thus, the [[extensions:Extension.Index Application]] has now merged the previous Page + Space columns into a single ##Location## column and we've introduced new ##Title## column but which now displays the title of pages, as can be seen on the following screenshot:
89
90 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@livetable-location.png" width="50%"/}}
91
92 The same strategy is implemented for the ##children## and the ##siblings## viewers.
93
94 Note that you can filter at several path levels in the Location column. For example:
95
96 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@location-filter.png" width="50%"/}}
97
98 {{info}}
99 XWiki currently doesn't support filtering on Page titles which is why the new ##Title## column doesn't allow filtering. However since the ##Location## column includes the full path, users can still search on Page names.
100
101 At a technical level the displaying of page titles was needed because all non-terminal pages names are called ##WebHome## and displaying that would not be user-friendly.
102 {{/info}}
103
104 == New Panels ==
105
106 * A [[Children Panel>>extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HChildrenPanel"]] has been added to display the list of Children pages of the current Page.(((
107 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@children.png"/}}
108 )))
109 * A [[Siblings Panel>>extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HSiblingsPanel"]] has been added to display the list of Sibling pages of the current Page.(((
110 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@siblings.png"/}}
111 )))
112 * The [[SpaceDocs Panel>>extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HSpaceDocsPanel"]] has been deprecated and the [[Children Panel>>extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HChildrenPanel"]] or [[Siblings Panel>>extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HSiblingsPanel"]] should be used instead. A warning message has been added (visible only to Admins) to explain this:(((
113 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@spacedocs-warning.png"/}}
114 )))
115
116 == App Within Minutes ==
117
118 Up until this version, the applications created with App Within Minutes were always located in a top level space. For instance, if you wanted to create a "Meeting" application, the application data space was "Meeting". Starting with this version you can also create an application in a nested space. In the first step of the wizard you can select the location where you want the application to be created. In the following image I have create an application with path "Marius / Apps / Meeting".
119
120 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M2@appLocationPicker.png" width="600"/}}
121
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.25 122 The [[App Within Minutes>>extensions:Extension.App Within Minutes Application]] wizard is now generating all the application pages in a single location, as nested pages. The code pages are grouped under the ##Code## page and are marked as hidden (so your users don't see them by default). The application entries are created under the ##Data## page. Backward compatibility is preserved so you should still be able to edit existing applications that don't have the new page organization.
123
124 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73RC1@appStructure.png"/}}
125
126 The application wizard has also been modified to support any characters in the application name. The only remaining requirement for the application name is to not be empty.
127
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.17 128 == Office Importer ==
129
130 The [[extensions:Extension.Office Importer Application]] has been redesigned visually and now supports importing into Nested Spaces:
131
132 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@OfficeImporter" width="50%"/}}
133
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.14 134 == Template Providers Administration ==
135
136 The template provider UI has been adapted to Nested Pages and it now supports:
137
138 * Creating template providers deeper than the first level (as it was restricted before), reusing the location picker widget
139 * Setting allowed locations (i.e. spaces) using the tree widget

150
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.26 151 * Template providers can now specify if they create terminal or non-terminal documents. See the [[documentation>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application||anchor="HAdvanced:Creatingterminaldocumentswithtemplateproviders"]] for more information.
152 * The //Template Type// option ("type" class property) of a template provider was removed since it was not used from the start and any existing values have been migrated to use the new "terminal" property. See the [[documentation for more information on the "terminal" property>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application||anchor="HAdvanced:Creatingterminaldocumentswithtemplateproviders"]].
153
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.14 154 == XClass Application ==
155
156 The [[XClass Application>>extensions:Extension.XClass Application]] has been modified to support classes defined in nested documents. The default class sheet has been improved to use the new location picker when creating a new class entry, and the list of existing entries is now displayed using a live table. The 'Data types' page has been improved to use the new location picker when creating a new class, and the list of existing classes (data types) is now displayed using a live table.

Vincent Massol 1.1 163 == Miscellaneous ==
164
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 165 * The Extension Diff view has been improved to display the page (translation) language both in the summary and the detail sections. The page name (heading) from the detail section is now a link to the local version of the page.(((
166 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@extensionDiff.png" width="200"/}}
167 )))
168 * Added the Actions column for the [[FAQ Application>>extensions:Extension.FAQ Application]]:(((
169 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@faqActions.png"/}}
170 )))
171 * Pages with Slovak and Brazilian Portuguese language are now indexed by Solr and thus they are included in the search results. See the [[Migration Notes>>||anchor="HIssuesspecifictoXWiki7.3-milestone-1"]] below in case you are performing an upgrade and you want support for these languages.
172 * Clicking on the Logo (top-left of the screen) will now take you to the page that you have configured as wiki homepage by using the "Wiki Administration > Wikis > Descriptor" section. See the related [[documentation section>>extensions:Extension.Wiki Application||anchor="HConfigureWiki"]].
173 * The template providers edition has been rewritten to be more consistent with other edit forms:(((
174 {{image reference="ReleaseNotesXWiki73M1@template-provider-edit.png" width="50%"/}}
175 )))
176 * Removed the 'Edit' button when editing a template provider document. See [[XWIKI-12675>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-12675]]
177 * The [[Invitation Application>>extensions:Extension.Invitation Application]] now has an entry point in the App Bar (only visible to Admins).
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 178 * The [[Active Installs Client module>>extensions:Extension.Active Installs Client API||anchor="HFormatEvolution"]] had a bug leading to the ##sinceDays## field not being set correctly (was almost always set to 0).
179 * [[New ##xpage## parameter>>platform:DevGuide.Standard URL Format||anchor="HParameter:xpage"]]: ##outputTitle##. If ##true## then also display the title in addition to the content. Defaults to ##false## if not specified.
180 * The XWiki Syntax help now no longer shows help for syntaxes that are not available in the wiki.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.26 181 * Added support for list properties in LDAP user synchronization
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 182

185 = For Developers =
186
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 187 == Extension Manager ==
Vincent Massol 1.1 188
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 189 === Custom repositories ===
190
191 Extensions and dependencies can now provide custom repositories. For now only dependencies repositories are directly used when resolving it before trying registered repositories.
192
193 In practice it means that Maven custom repositories are now supported properly (at least to resolve artifacts dependencies). On Extension Manager side it means you get the same custom repositories duplicated in the Extension and in each ExtensionDependency.
194
195 Support also been added to Extension Repository API. It's also imported in XWiki based Extension Repository implementation but not yet exposed as REST resource.
196
197 === Resolve dependencies in extension repository first ===
198
199 The extension repository is checked first when searching for extension dependencies.
200
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 201 == Extensions Repository ==
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 202
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 203 * New Extensions are now created in their own space by default (as the space home page). It will make it easier to organize documentation for large Extensions.
204 * Custom Extension repositories are now sent by the Extension Repository REST service
Thomas Mortagne 8.1 205 * Issue management information are now imported, displayed and exposed by the Extension Repository REST service
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 206
207 == REST API ==
208
Thomas Mortagne 8.1 209 It's now possible to get a page with everything but attachment content. For this you can enable various part of the document using the following URL parameters:
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 210
211 * ##objects##: enable returning document objects
212 * ##class##: enable returning document class properties
213 * ##attachments##: enable returning document attachments
214
215 They are all disabled by default.
216
217 Page objects support has also been added to the Page PUT API.
218
219 === REST supports ##hidden## ===
220
Jean SIMARD 2.4 221 You can now set and/or get information from the status ##hidden## of a page with REST service. For example, you may create a hidden page using the following file and the following request.
Jean SIMARD 2.3 222
Jean SIMARD 2.4 223 {{code language="xml"}}
224 <page xmlns="http://www.xwiki.org">
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.1 225 <title>Test of hidden</title>
226 <hidden>true</hidden>
227 <content/>

238 "http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/SomeSpace/pages/SomePage"
239 {{/code}}
240
241 And then check the status of this ##hidden## status with a ##GET## HTTP request

243 {{code language="none"}}
244 curl \
245 --verbose \
246 --user Admin:admin \
247 --request GET \

249 "http://localhost:8080/xwiki/rest/wikis/xwiki/spaces/SomeSpace/pages/SomePage"
250 {{/code}}
251
252 You may also use the ##application/x-www-form-urlencoded## to set this ##hidden## field.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.1 253
254 {{code language="none"}}
255 curl \
Jean SIMARD 2.4 256 --verbose \
257 --user Admin:admin \

Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 290 The extension point [[platform:ExtensionPoint.DrawerItem]] has now a parameter ##separator## to add a line separator before the drawer item.
291
Vincent Massol 1.1 292 == Miscellaneous ==
293
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 294 * New ##getReference()## API public scripting Element (Object, Class, etc.) to get the EntityReference of the element
295 * New functional tests for the [[extensions:Extension.Office Importer Application]] have been added to ##xwiki-platform##. To enable them, you need to enable the new profile ##office-tests##.
296 * For testing purpose, an environment variable ##XWIKI_OFFICE_HOME## can bet set to configure where the Office server is installed on the system.
297 * New [[Time Zone XProperty type>>platform:DevGuide.DataModel]] to represent Time Zones.
298 * The [[XAR plugin>>dev:Community.XARPlugin]] now verifies that Technical Pages are set as hidden and the Format Mojo sets them as hidden.
299 * A new [[XAR Integration testing framework>>dev:Community.Testing||anchor="HXARTesting"]] has been introduced. It can be used to write integration tests for wiki pages.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.15 300 * A ##displayTitle## option has been added to the hierarchy macros. By default, it is set to true. When disabled, the names of the references are displayed in the breadcrumb, instead of the document titles.
301 * The ##documentTree## macro has been moved to its own module, under the Index application, so that it can be used as a dependency in other modules without pulling the entire Index application.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.27 302 * XAR plugin's [[Verify Mojo>>dev:Community.XARPlugin||anchor="HVerifyMojo"]] can now verify that defined pages have matching titles and now verifies titles of WebPreferences pages.
Vincent Massol 6.3 303 * log4j 1.2.17 and commons-logging 1.2 are now identified as core extension by the Extension Manager (which prevents them being installed as dependencies)
Vincent Massol 1.1 304
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 305 == Deprecated and Retired projects ==
306
307 * The [[XML-RPC Integration>>extensions:Extension.XML-RPC Integration]] has been retired. It had been deprecated several years ago in favor of the [[REST API>>platform:Features.XWikiRESTfulAPI]] and it wasn't actively supported.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.27 308 * Old query plugin finally been moved to https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/xwiki-platform-queryplugin

360 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.

Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.6 362 == Issues specific to XWiki 7.3 ==
Vincent Massol 1.1 363
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.8 364 * If you had modified the custom displayer for Time Zones in either ##XWiki.XWikiUsers## or ##XWiki.XWikiPreferences## then when upgrading to 7.3M1 your change will be removed. This is because we've introduced a Time Zone XProperty type which is replacing the String type used before for storing the Time Zones. If you wish to put back your change you can define a custom displayer on the new Time Zone XProperty in ##XWiki.XWikiUsers## or ##XWiki.XWikiPreferences##.
365 * In order to add support for Slovak and Brazilian Portuguese languages to the Solr search we had to modify the Solr schema and unfortunately we don't have support for automatic Solr search index migration at this point. If you want to support these languages you have to delete the 'solr' folder from the configured permanent directory of your XWiki instance. The Solr index will be recreated automatically and the entire wiki/farm (including the pages in the Slovak and Brazilian Portuguese language) will be re-indexed after a server restart.
Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 4.30 366 * Old query plugin is not provided by default anymore. See https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/xwiki-platform-queryplugin.
367 * The values of the removed template "type" property of TemplateProviderClass have been migrated to the new "terminal" property.
