1 ikiwiki (2.16) unstable; urgency=low
3 Many of the pages in ikiwiki's basewiki have been moved and renamed in this
4 release, to avoid the basewiki including pages with names like "blog".
5 Redirection pages have been left behind for these moved pages temporarily,
6 and will be removed later.
8 If you use the calendar plugin, ikiwiki is now smarter and your nightly
9 cron job to update the wiki doesn't need to rebuild everything. Just pass
10 --refresh to ikiwiki in the cron job and it will update only pages that
11 contain out of date calendars.

15 ikiwiki (2.14) unstable; urgency=low
17 This version of ikiwiki is more picky about symlinks in the path leading
18 to the srcdir, and will refuse to use a srcdir specified by such a path.
19 This was necessary to avoid some potential exploits, but could potentially
20 break (semi-)working wikis. If your wiki has a srcdir path containing a
21 symlink, you should change it to use a path that does not.

25 ikiwiki (2.9) unstable; urgency=low
27 Since ikiwiki 2.0 was released, some limitiations have been added to what
28 ikiwiki considers a WikiLink. In short, if there are any spaces in between
29 the brackets, ikiwiki no longer considers it to be a WikiLink. If your wiki
30 contains things meant to be WikiLinks that contain spaces, you will need to
31 fix them, by replacing the spaces with underscores.
33 WikiLink have always been documented to not contain spaces, but bugs in
34 ikiwiki made it treat some text with spaces as WikiLinks. Most of these
35 bugs were fixed in version 2.2, and a final bug was fixed in this 2.9
36 release. These fixes are necessary to avoid ambiguity between
37 WikiLinks and PreProcessorDirectives. Apologies for any inconvenience
38 these bugs (and their fixes) may have caused.

44 In this version the rst plugin allows raw html to be embedded in rst files.
45 As long as the htmlscrubber is enabled, this should be safe. If you are
46 using the rst plugin without the htmlscrubber in a publically writable wiki,
47 you should turn on the htmlscrubber.

68 ikiwiki (2.00) unstable; urgency=low
70 With the 2.0 release of ikiwiki, some major changes have been made to the
71 default configuration:
73 * The 'usedirs' setting is enabled by default. This *will* break all URLs
74 to wikis that did not have 'usedirs' turned on before, unless you follow
75 the procedure described at <http://ikiwiki.info/tips/switching_to_usedirs>,
76 or edit your setup file to turn usedirs off:
79 * OpenID logins are now enabled by default, if the Net::OpenID::Consumer
80 perl module is available. Password logins are also still enabled
81 by default. If you like, you can turn either OpenID or password logins
82 off via the 'disable_plugins' setting.

112 Due to a security fix, wikis that have the htmlscrubber enabled can no
113 longer use the meta plugin to insert html link and meta tags.
115 Some special case methods have been added for safely including stylesheets,
116 and for doing openid delegation. See the meta plugin docs for details.

130 The htmllink() function has changed slightly and plugins that use it may
131 need to change how they call it. This function's first three parameters
132 are unchanged, but additional options are now passed using named
133 parameters. If you used htmllink with more than 3 parameters, you will
134 need to change it. The plugin interface version has been increased to 1.02
135 to reflect this change.

142 httpauth support on your wiki, you should now enable the anonok plugin,

179 of rendered files. Plugins that cause a page to render additional files

205 The GlobList format which was used for specifiying sets of pages, has been
206 replaced with a new, more expressive PageSpec format. While GlobLists will
207 continue to work, that format is deprecated, and you are encouraged to use
208 PageSpecs from now on, and also to change any GlobLists in your wiki to
209 PageSpecs. See the new PageSpec page for details.

220 Some changes to tags in this release, due to a new tag plugin. If you have
221 been using the meta plugin to tag pages, you'll want to enable the tag
222 plugin too, and change things like this:
224 [[meta link="foobar"]]

239 If your wiki is configured with a setup file, you should modify it to
240 stop setting the "plugin" list directly, and instead add or remove plugins
241 via the add_plugins and disable_plugins lines. For example, if you had:
243 plugin => [qw{inline smiley search}],
245 Change it to these lines, which disables the default htmlscrubber plugin
246 and adds the two additional plugins:
248 add_plugins => [qw{smiley search}],
249 disable_plugins => [qw{htmlscrubber}],
251 Making this change makes your ikiwiki setup file more future-proof since
252 new default plugins will be automatically used.
254 You will need to rebuild your ikiwiki wrappers when upgrading to this
255 version. If you listed your wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist this will be

267 be changed to set rcs => "svn"; if your setup file sets svn => 0
268 then change it to use rcs => "" to disable svn.
270 The --hyperestraier switch is gone too. To enable searching, turn on the
271 search plugin, by passing --plugin=search or through the plugin setting in
274 The --sanitize and --no-sanitize switches are also gone, replaced with the
275 htmlscrubber plugin. This plugin is enabled by default, to disable it,
276 use --disable-plugin=htmlscrubber, or modify the plugin setting in the

280 with a setup file, you need to edit it to keep them enabled on upgrade
