| 5 | Second milestone of the XWiki Enterprise 2.5 version ([[Roadmap>>enterprise:Main.Roadmap]]). | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | The highlights of this release are: support for viewing attached office documents in the wiki, further improvements to the edit UI, more consistent use of user avatars. | ||

| 9 | = New and Noteworthy (since XWiki Enterprise 2.4) = | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | == Support for viewing attached office documents in the wiki == | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | == Further improvements to the edit UI == | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | == More image manipulation settings == | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | For a long time it was possible to scale attached images on the server, thus reducing the download time and ensuring consistent scaling of images across browsers. This is achieved by appending ##width## and/or ##height## query string parameters to the URL of the image. | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | == Various Security improvements == | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | Continuing a push for better security started this summer, 2.5M2 fixes some of the few cross-site scripting and SQL injections holes, and tightens the scope of programming rights. Of particular concern: | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | * With a default skin, programming rights are no longer available after the main content of the page; this means that the panels and the bottom tabs can't use restricted APIs anymore. | ||
| 24 | * To explicitly drop programming rights, a new API method was introduced: ##$xcontext.dropPermissions()## | ||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | = Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes = | ||
| 27 | |||
| 28 | == General Notes == | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | {{warning}} | ||
| 31 | If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in //xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//. | ||
| 32 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 33 | |||
| 34 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from the improvements listed above. | ||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | {{warning}} | ||
| 37 | Always make sure you compare your //xwiki.cfg// file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note 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. | ||
