| 11 | == Workspaces == | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | We have adopted the [[extensions:Extension.Workspace Application]] as an XWiki platform project. In a few words, the //Workspace Application// allows regular users to create workspaces where they can collaborate on a specific topic. Once the work is done, they can delete the workspace if they wish so. A workspaces is, in essence, a regular subwikis that is to be used only by global users. It allows global users to join or be invited and to easily navigate through the available workspaces and to the main wiki. | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | The //Workspace Application// suits best for intranets or any other usecase that involves having only global users and going back and forward through projects or departments that are separated in subwikis. On the other hand, the //Workspace Application// is not intended to be used in environments such as wiki farms, where each subwiki is a bubble, having it's own users and not knowing/caring about other subwikis or the main wiki. This later usecase is the task of the [[extensions:Extension.Wiki Manager Application]]. | ||

| 40 | == General Notes == | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | {{warning}} | ||
| 43 | 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,...//. | ||
| 44 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from the improvements listed above. | ||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | {{warning}} | ||
| 49 | 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. | ||
