WarningBefore upgrading to this version, be sure to have a working backup of your database(s).
This is the secondd and last milestone of the XWiki Enterprise 4.0 version (Roadmap).
New and Noteworthy (since XWiki Enterprise 4.0 Milestone 2 version)
Extension Manager improvements
Starting with version 4.0M2, annotations have been merged by default with comments. More specifically, this means:
- You can now reply to an annotation (threaded annotations)
- The Annotations tab is now replaced by the Comments tab where you can see both annotations and comments
- The default annotation class is now XWiki.XWikiComments instead of AnnotationCode.AnnotationClass
User profile customization
An admin can now configure which information is displayed in the user profile (the "Profile" tab of a user's profile page). A new section has been added in Administration where an admin can configure which fields of the XWikiUsers class to display. The admin still has to add the new fields to the class the old way, using the class editor for the page XWiki.XWikiUsers, but he no longer needs to write any code.
User directory improvements and user customized view
The UserDirectory can now display, as columns, filterable and sortable properties of users, as opposed to the previous version where you just had a fixed column that displayed a composed name in the form "first_name last_name (profilePageID)".
In addition, each user can now customize his view over the UserDirectory by adding or removing columns, or resetting to default.
The default displayed columns are "first_name" and "last_name", and the unmodifiable columns (that will always be displayed as first columns) are "_avatar" and "doc.fullName".
ColorThemes gradients customizable from ColorTheme Wizard
In version 3.4 we deprecated the old default bundled ColorThemes (because of incompatible variable mix). In version 4.0 this is no longer the case, old default bundled ColorThemes (like Bordo, Nature, etc.) are now being compatible with the 3.4 Colibri Skin changes. We fixed this by adding new gradient ColorThemes variables. All these gradient ColorTheme variables are now changeble from the ColorTheme Wizard.
