Guillaume Delhumeau 4.1 23 == Breadcrumb ==
Guillaume Delhumeau 1.1 24
Guillaume Delhumeau 4.1 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 ('...'):

30 * full:(((

32 )))
33
Guillaume Delhumeau 6.1 34 Note that this behavior have also been added to all hierarchy breadcrumbs, including location of search results, etc...

Guillaume Delhumeau 21.1 40 == Page Index ==
Guillaume Delhumeau 20.1 41
Vincent Massol 24.2 42 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 column (which is still called Page) but which now displays the title of pages, as can be seen on the following screenshot:
Guillaume Delhumeau 20.1 43
44 {{image reference="livetable-location.png" width="50%"/}}
45
Vincent Massol 21.2 46 The same strategy is implemented for the ##children## and the ##siblings## viewers.
Guillaume Delhumeau 20.1 47
Vincent Massol 26.1 48 Note that you can filter at several path levels in the Location column. For example:
49
50 {{image reference="location-filter.png" width="50%"/}}
51
Vincent Massol 24.2 52 {{info}}
53 XWiki currently doesn't support filtering on Page titles which is why the new Page column doesn't allow filtering. However since the Location column includes the full path, users can still search on Page names.
Guillaume Delhumeau 23.1 54
Vincent Massol 24.2 55 At a technical level the displaying of page titles was needed because all non-terminal Page names are called ##WebHome## and displaying that would not be user-friendly.

131 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.
