-ikiwiki 1.1 is now released.
-
-There have been several configuration changes in this release of ikiwiki:
-
-* The --svn and --no-svn switches are removed, instead you should use
- --rcs=svn or --no-rcs. ikiwiki setup files that set svn => 1 should
- be changed to set rcs => "svn"; if your setup file sets svn => 0
- then change it to use rcs => "" to disable svn.
-
-* The --hyperestraier switch is gone too. To enable searching, turn on the
- search plugin, by passing --plugin=search or through the plugin setting in
- the setup file.
-
-* The --sanitize and --no-sanitize switches are also gone, replaced with the
- htmlscrubber plugin. This plugin is enabled by default, to disable it,
- use --disable-plugin=htmlscrubber, or modify the plugin setting in the
- setup file.
-
-* Discussion pages are enabled by default, but if your wiki is configured
- with a setup file, you need to edit it to keep them enabled on upgrade
- to this version. Add a line reading:
- discussion => 1,
-
-You will need to rebuild your wiki when upgrading to this version.
-If you listed your wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist this will be done
-automatically when the Debian package is upgraded. Or use
-ikiiki-mass-rebuild to force a rebuild.
-
-Here's the full list of changes in ikiwiki 1.1:
-
- * Rename inlinepage to depends, so that it can be used to refer to more
- dependency relationships than just inlining. This will require a rebuild
- on upgrade to this version.
- * Move the rss link, put it in the blogpost form if there is one and at the
- top if not. This is both nicer because easier to find, and it cleans up
- the code which had used inlinepage as a flag for adding the link later.
- * Allow the depends GlobList to be built up from multiple sources (such as
- plugins) during a page render.
- * Which means that more than one blog is now supported to appear on a
- single page. (With some limitations, like only the last one getting an
- rss file.)
- * Added a plugin system.
- * Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
- * Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
- * Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
- backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
- * Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
- enabled by default.
- * Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
- * Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
- * Smarter behavior when creating a page and a page of the same name (but
- different location) already exists.
- * Add an orphans plugin for finding pages that nothing links to.
- * Removed backlinks page, which it turns out nothing used.
- * Split off an IkiWiki.pm out of ikiwiki and have all the other modules use
- it, this will allow for adding a unit test suite.
- * Add unit tests for several core functions, including globlist\_match,
- dirname, basename, bestlink, linkify, pagetitle, titlepage.
- * Smart globlist merging.
- * Patch from Thomas Schwinge to switch from --svn to --rcs=svn, etc,
- to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
- setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
- rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
- * Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
- * Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
- as plugins and work. (Well, in theory.)
- * Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
- * Broke search capability out into a plugin, removed the --hyperestraier
- switch.
- * Added smiley plugin, nicely controlled and documented by the smileys page.
- * Copied in some smileys from Moin Moin.
- * Allow links of the form \\[[some page|page]], with whitespace in the link
- text.
- * Removed --sanitize and --no-sanitize, replaced with --plugin htmlscrubber
- and --disable-plugin htmlscrubber.
- * Allow discussion links on pages to be turned off with --no-discussion.
- * Add ikiwiki-mass-rebuild script, ripped out of the postinst.
- * Add some new config items to the estseek.conf template, which are needed
- by hyperestraier 1.2.3.
