Now [[the extensions wiki>>extensions:Main.WebHome]] is enabled by default as a source for extensions, although only a handful of extensions have been validated at the moment. |

26 | |||
27 | In the second step you define the application structure, i.e. the type of data the application will handle. At the end of this step the wizard will create for you the template and the sheet that will be used to create new application entries. | ||

41 | == Miscellaneous == | ||
42 | |||
![]() |
8.1 | 43 | * [[XE-1055>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XE-1055]]: Several bugs fixed in the Activity Stream, mostly caused by wrong usage of timezones |
44 | * [[XWIKI-7215>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7215]]: The Livetable "loading" status is enabled sooner, right after starting to type a new filter, although the actual fetching of new rows is still delayed until the user stops typing | ||
45 | * [[XEM-204>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XEM-204]]: By default path-based multiwiki is enabled in XEM, making it easier to test and run a virtual wiki farm | ||
46 | * [[XRENDERING-161>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XRENDERING-161]]: Starting with XE 3.2 we had introduced caching of rendered content to improve performances but that led to a huge increase in memory needs. We've now tuned this and we've been able to keep the performance improvement and at the same time to drastically reduce the memory need. | ||

78 | |||
79 | == General Notes == | ||
80 | |||
81 | {{warning}} | ||
82 | 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,...//. | ||
83 | {{/warning}} | ||
84 | |||
85 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above. | ||
86 | |||
87 | {{warning}} | ||
88 | Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were 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. | ||
