+
+ 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 2.40 and newer, regardless of the value of prefix_directives.
+ This allows the underlay to work with all ikiwikis.

+
+ Ever feel that ikiwiki's handling of RecentChanges wasn't truely in the
+ spirit of a wiki compiler? Well, that's changed. The RecentChanges page is
+ now a static page, not a CGI. Users can subscribe to its rss/atom feeds.
+ Custom RecentChanges pages can be easily set up that display only changes
+ to a subset of pages, or only changes by a subset of users.
+
+ All wikis need to be rebuilt on upgrade 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 ikiwiki-mass-rebuild to force a rebuild.
+
+ With this excellent new RecentChanges support, the mail notification system
+ is its age (and known to be variously buggy and underimplemented for
+ various VCSes), and so ikiwiki's support for sending commit mails is REMOVED
+ from this version. If you were subscribed to commit mails, you should be
+ able to accomplish the same thing by subscribing to a RecentChanges feed.
+
+ The "svnrepo" and "notify" fields in setup files are no longer used, and
+ silently ignored. You may want to remove them from your setup file.

+ 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
Redirection pages have been left behind for these moved pages temporarily,
and will be removed later.
- The meta plugin no longer supports setting internal or external links
- with "meta link". Instead, use "meta openid" for openid links, and use tags
- for in-wiki invisible links between pages.
-
If you use the calendar plugin, ikiwiki is now smarter and your nightly
cron job to update the wiki doesn't need to rebuild everything. Just pass
--refresh to ikiwiki in the cron job and it will update only pages that
