+
+ ikiwiki now has an new syntax for preprocessor directives, using the
+ prefix '!':
+
+ [[!directive ...]]
+
+ This new syntax no longer relies on spaces to distinguish between
+ wikilinks and preprocessor directives. Thus, wikilinks can use spaces
+ in their link text, and preprocessor directives without arguments (such
+ as "toc") need not use a trailing space.
+
+ To enable the new syntax, set prefix_directives to true in your ikiwiki
+ config. For backward compatibility with existing wikis,
+ prefix_directives currently defaults to false. In ikiwiki 3.0,
+ prefix_directives will default to true, and wikis which have not yet
+ converted to the new syntax will need to set prefix_directives to false
+ in their setup files.
+
+ To convert your wiki to the new syntax, ikiwiki provides a new script
+ ikiwiki-transition. It will convert preprocessor directives in
+ all files given on the command line. To convert an entire wiki:
+
+ find wikidir/ -type f -name '*.mdwn' -print0 | xargs -0 ikiwiki-transition prefix_directives
+
+ Even with prefix_directives disabled, ikiwiki now allows an optional '!'
+ prefix on preprocessor directives (but still requires a space). Thus, a
+ directive which uses a '!' prefix and contains a space will work with
+ ikiwiki 2.21 and newer, regardless of the value of prefix_directives.
+ This allows the underlay to work with all ikiwikis.

+
+ The template plugin has begin to htmlize the variables passed to templates.
+ This is normally what you want, but to get the old behavior and get at the
+ raw value, you can use `<TMPL_VAR raw_variable>` in a template.

Many of the pages in ikiwiki's basewiki have been moved and renamed in this
release, to avoid the basewiki including pages with names like "blog".
