| 18 | |||
| 19 | * Complete rewrite of the LDAP authentication support (see [XWIKI-1079>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1079] for more details). Main changes: | ||

| 21 | ** If LDAP authentication fails, XWiki DB authentication takes over | ||
| 22 | ** Improved configuration parameters | ||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | #warning("The old LDAP authentication is still present but deprecated. See the [Authentication Guide>platform:AdminGuide.Authentication] for details on how to configure LDAP authentication.") | ||
| 25 | * Allow skin document attachments to override/provide templates | ||
| 26 | * Tightened Wiki Syntax for strikethrough ([XWIKI-1207>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1207]), underline ([XWIKI-1243>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1243]), italics ([XWIKI-1245>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1245]) and strong ([XWIKI-1248>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-1248]). | ||
| 27 | * Verified XWiki on PostGreSQL 8.3 | ||
| 28 | * Syntax Help Panel now opens the XWiki Syntax help from xwiki.org in a separate window | ||
| 29 | |||

| 35 | * The watchlist feature doesn't fully work yet when XWiki used in virtual mode and thus the Watchlist menu is automatically disabled and hidden in that mode. | ||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | #error("The Toucan skin v1.0 still has some issues with Internet Explorer. See [XSTOUCAN-3>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XSTOUCAN-3] for more details and follow up.") | ||
| 38 | |||
| 39 | 1.1 Common Migration notes | ||
| 40 | |||
| 41 | The database structure has been changed but we have set up an automatic migration system so you shouldn't have to touch your Database to upgrade to 1.3M2. Thus you can simply install this version and configure it to point to your existing database. | ||
| 42 | |||
| 43 | #warning("If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property <tt>xwiki.store.migration.databases=all</tt> to your <tt>xwiki.cfg</tt> file or explicitely name all databases to be migrated as in <tt>xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...</tt>.") | ||
| 44 | |||
| 45 | You may also want to [import the default wiki XAR>Main.Download] in order to benefit from improvements listed above. | ||
| 46 | |||
| 47 | #warning("Always make sure you compare your <tt>xwiki.cfg</tt> file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Of note, you should add <tt>xwiki.store.migration=1</tt> so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.") | ||
| 48 | |||
| 49 | #info("Make sure you import the new [Panels Application XAR 1.3>extensions:Extension.Panels Application] since it's required by the new Albatross and Toucan skin versions.") | ||
| 50 | |||

| 52 | |||
| 53 | No additional steps required. | ||
| 54 | |||
