| 6 | We've found an important issue in this release with our automatic data migration when upgrading from a version earlier than 4.0. Specifically the migration may fail when migrating wikis having stats, see [[XWIKI-7976>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7976]] and when migrating DBs that was migrated from MySQL MyISAM previously, see [[XWIKI-7985>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7985]]. In addition we've also realized that the migration process can be slow on large XWiki databases and we have speed up the process. All these issue are fixed in release 4.1.3. | ||

| 9 | This release fixes a serious issue preventing the display of differences between versions in both history and Extension Manager. | ||

| 19 | == JIRA Macro == | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | A [[new JIRA Macro>>extensions:Extension.JIRA Macro]] is now part of the Platform but is not bundled by default (you'll need to install it with the Extension Manager). We previously had a [[Contributed JIRA Macro>>extensions:Extension.Contrib JIRA Macro]] but we decided that the JIRA macro was a good candidate to have in the Platform and thus supported by the XWiki Development Team. Compared to the older Contributed JIRA Macro, the new Macro has the following advantages: | ||
| 22 | * No Programming Rights required | ||
| 23 | * Supports issue ordering | ||
| 24 | * Supports ability to register new Styles, new Data Sources and new Field Displayers | ||
| 25 | * Displays closed issues as Striked-out | ||
| 26 | * Written in Java with automated tests | ||

| 40 | {{warning}} | ||
| 41 | 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. | ||
