11 == UI to import and synchronize external extensions in the repository ==
12
13 It's now possible to easily import an extension from any repository into XWiki Repository.
14
15 A common use case is the need to make a maven extension available to the search with a complete documentation since search is not supported in plain maven repositories and it's hard to add a nice documentation in maven pom.xml since there is no real place for it (just a summary).
16
17 XWiki Repository then act as a proxy for the actual extension file.

56
57 {{warning}}
58 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,...//.
59 {{/warning}}
60
61 You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above.
62
63 {{warning}}
64 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.
