For Developers

REST support hidden

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.

And then check the status of this hidden status with a GET HTTP request

You may also use the application/x-www-form-urlencoded to set this hidden field.
curl \
  --verbose \

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.
