65
66 == General Notes ==
67
68 * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
69 ** ##xwiki.cfg##
70 ** ##xwiki.properties##
71 ** ##web.xml##
72 ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
73 * Add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## in ##xwiki.cfg## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to any new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.

Manuel Leduc 2.1 75 == Issues specific to XWiki 13.2RC1 ==
Manuel Leduc 1.1 76
Manuel Leduc 2.1 77 === Orphaned Pages Panel Removal ===
Manuel Leduc 1.1 78
Manuel Leduc 2.1 79 We removed the orphaned pages panel (see the [[forum discussion>>https://forum.xwiki.org/t/deprecating-the-orphaned-panel/]]). Consequently, the Extensions Manager will propose to remove the corresponding document (i.e., ##Panels.OrphanedPages##) during the upgrade.
80
81 If you wish to re-integrate the panel after its removal, you can do so by following the [[Create a new panel>>doc:extensions:Extension.Panels Application||anchor="HCreateanewpanel"]] instructions, and using the [[Orphaned Pages Panel>>doc:snippets:Extension.Orphaned Pages]] snippet.
82
Marius Dumitru Florea 14.2 83 === Old user, group, date and color pickers removed ===
84
Marius Dumitru Florea 15.1 85 The old **user**, **group**, **date** and **color** pickers are not bundled anymore. They were based on Prototype.js and were not used in XWiki Standard. We kept them so far in case someone was still using the old [[Colibri skin>>extensions:Extension.Colibri Skin]], which we stopped supporting a while ago. If you haven't written code that uses these pickers directly then you have nothing to worry because our current skin [[Flamingo>>extensions:Extension.Flamingo Skin]] provides an implementation of these pickers. If you're using the [[Velocity macros>>Documentation.DevGuide.FrontendResources.Pickers.WebHome]] that correspond to these pickers then you don't have to worry either. You only need to take action if you're using directly the JavaScript code of the old pickers. In this case you have two options:
Marius Dumitru Florea 14.2 86
Marius Dumitru Florea 15.1 87 * either update your code to use the new pickers
88 * or copy the old JavaScript code and the Velocity macros from the XWiki instance you're upgrading from.
