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.

12
13 == Flamingo ==
14
15 The "more options" menu have been split and a "page admin" menu has been created:
16
17 {{gallery}}
18 image:content_menus.png
19 image:page-admin-menus.png
20 image:more-options-menu.png
21 {{/gallery}}
22
23 == Breadcrumb ==
24
25 When the hierarchy of a nested pages is long, we do not display it entirely anymore. Instead, we display a limited version, that the user can expand by clicking on the "ellipsis" character ('...'):
26
27 * limited:(((
28 {{image reference="breadcrumb-limited.png"/}}
29 )))
30 * full:(((
31 {{image reference="breadcrumb-full.png"/}}
32 )))
33
34 Note that this behavior have also been added to all hierarchy breadcrumbs, including location of search results, etc...
35
36 (((
37 {{image reference="breadcrumb-search-results.png"/}}
38 )))
39
40 == Page Index ==
41
42 Since we have introduced the concept of Nested Spaces we needed to replace the Space column in the LiveTable with a more generic Location column. Thus, the LiveTable of the [[extensions:Extension.Index Application]] now displays the title and the location of the pages , as shown in the following screenshot:
43
44 {{image reference="livetable-location.png" width="50%"/}}
45
46 The same strategy is implemented for the ##children## and the ##siblings## viewers.

118 == General Notes ==
119
120 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.
