====== Changelog ======


This page contains a summary of changes between the official [[DokuWiki]] releases, only the biggest changes are listed here. The complete and detailed log of all changes is available through the [[http://github.com/splitbrain/dokuwiki/commits/master|GitHub Repository Browser]].

Changelogs of older releases than the ones listed here are available at [[Old Changes]]. Plugin and template developers should read and subscribe to the [[devel:releases|detailed change log]]. 

There is some information regarding the [[install:upgrade|upgrade]]-process.

Changes marked with :!: need some attention on upgrading!

===== Release Candidate 2011-11-10 “Angua RC1” =====

**Usage enhancements**

  * Version handling of media files, just like pages. Old versions are saved and change history available in "recent changes" list as well as in RSS. This and the new media manager are the result of the Google Summer of Code project of Kate Arzamastseva. :!: Be careful when upgrading, some directories need be created (see [[:install:upgrade]])
  * Drag & drop support in media manager to speed up adding new files (only works in Firefox and Chrome). And improved multiple file upload (only works in Firefox, Chrome and Safari). This was made possible by replacing the old flash uploader with [[http://valums.com/ajax-upload/|valums Ajax Upload]].
  * A powerful, AJAX-enhanced [[fullscreen_mediamanager|fullscreen media manager]] is introduced in addition to the standard pop-up manager.  :!: All templates must be updated to support the new manager. :!: Template authors need to add a media manager button and CSS.

**Setup & Administration**

  * Better farming with cascading configuration for plugin enabling/disabling, this was developed as part of the new extension manager Google Summer of Code project of Piyush Mishra. (see [[tips:farm|farm]] & [[config]])
  * Performance enhancement by using data uris. This will transfer small images together with the CSS, thus reducing the number of needed HTTP requests and avoiding the HTTP header overhead. Turn on [[:config:cssdatauri]] for a more efficient install.

**Integration & Development**

  * The core code now uses the [[http://jquery.com|jQuery]] JavaScript framework offering powerful features to plugin & template developers. The old, now deprecated JavaScript API is kept for plugin compatibility. Plugin and template authors are encouraged to migrate their JavaScript code to use jQuery instead of the old API ([[devel:jqueryfaq|jQuery FAQ]]).
  * XML-RPC has been polished fixing some auth & login issues.
  * [[devel:releases|More details about changes]] related to programmers.

**Finally**

  * 25 issues reported in [[http://bugs.dokuwiki.org/]] were fixed.
  * Various smaller bug fixes and enhancements.
  * Thank you Kate and Piyush for their GSoC work and to Google for sponsoring it!
