  • Several XWiki forms have been modified in order to be consistent with our form standards: vertical and inline layout (added in this release). 

WYSIWYG content editor improvements

  • XWIKI-5849: Cannot create link to current page
  • XWIKI-5895: Adding an image in the WYSIWYG editor and previewing it without saving the page first makes the XWiki page corrupt

Backward Compatibility and Migration Notes

General Notes

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,....

You may also want to import the default wiki XAR in order to benefit from the improvements listed above.

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