7 Important bugs fixed

  • Print and Print Preview now print the whole content of a document.
  • CC field is not taken into account when using sendMessageFromTemplate in the MailSender plugin.
  • Fixed some statistics which were offset by one day in the graph.
  • The paragraph filter now replaces any number of consecutive newlines with a paragraph (it was only replacing two consecutive newlines).

8 Others

  • It's now possible to add redirections for incoming requests.
  • The Lucene plugin can now do reverse sorting. Unfortunately, this feature is available only in the plugin API, and not in the provided Lucene search page, which will be refactored some time later.
  • MailSender plugin now allows setting Reply-To, Sender (and any other) headers when sending mails.
  • The Watchlist feature now adds a diff in the email it sends when watched documents or spaces are modified. The diff is between "first revision since last notification" and "last revision". 
  • Added better Active Directory support by supporting case insensitive username.
  • Improved automated database migration support (for example when some documents have some invalid revisions, they are ignored and the migration continues without stopping, reporting the issue in the console).
  • Added Galician translation 

Known issues

Common Migration notes

The database structure has been changed but we have set up an automatic migration system so you shouldn't have to touch your Database to upgrade to 1.4M2. Thus you can simply install this version and configure it to point to your existing database. Just make sure you backup it before upgrading.

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 explicitely name all databases to be migrated as in xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,....

You may also want to import the default wiki XAR in order to benefit from improvements listed above. Make sure you read the XWiki upgrade guide before importing the new XAR since it can cause an overwrite of changes you made to some pages.

Always make sure you compare your xwiki.cfg file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Of note, 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.
