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.

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 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.
