For current info see RELEASE-NOTES-1.25. + +== MediaWiki 1.24 == + +=== Configuration changes in 1.24 === +* MediaWiki will no longer run if register_globals is enabled. It has been + deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4. For more information + about why, see <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/register_globals>. +* MediaWiki now requires PHP's iconv extension. openSUSE users may need to + install the php5-iconv package. Users of other systems may need to add + extension=iconv.so to php.ini or recompile PHP without --without-iconv. +* MediaWiki will no longer function if magic quotes are enabled. It has + been deprecated for 5 years now, and was removed in PHP 5.4. +* The server's canonical hostname is available as $wgServerName, which is + exposed in both mw.config and ApiQuerySiteInfo. +* Introduced $wgPagePropsHaveSortkey as a backwards-compatibility switch, + for using the old schema of the page_props table, in case the respective + schema update was not applied. +* $wgSearchEverythingOnlyLoggedIn was removed as the 'searcheverything' + user option was removed. Use $wgNamespacesToBeSearchedDefault instead or + if you used to have $wgDefaultUserOptions['searcheverything'] = 1. +* $wgMasterWaitTimeout has been deprecated. +* $wgDBClusterTimeout has been removed. +* $wgProxyKey has been removed. It is no longer used by MediaWiki core. + Ensure $wgSecretKey is set in LocalSettings.php. +* $wgExtraInterlanguageLinkPrefixes is a new configuration variable that + contains an array of interwiki prefixes that should be treated as language + prefixes (i.e. turned into interlanguage links when $wgInterwikiMagic is set + to true). +* $wgParserTestRemote has been removed. +* $wgCountTotalSearchHits has been removed. If you're concerned about efficiency + of search, you should use something like CirrusSearch instead of built in + search. +* Users in the 'sysop' group have access to Special:MergeHistory by default. +* $wgFileStore was removed after having been deprecated in 1.17. Alternative + configurations are $wgDeletedDirectory and $wgHashedUploadDirectory. +* The deprecated $wgUseCommaCount variable has been removed. +* $wgEnableSorbs and $wgSorbsUrl have been removed. +* The UserCryptPassword and UserComparePassword hooks are no longer called. + Any extensions using them must be updated to use the Password Hashing API. +* $wgCompiledFiles has been removed. +* $wgSortSpecialPages was removed, the listing on Special:SpecialPages is + now always sorted. +* $wgSpecialPages may now use callback functions as an alternative to plain class names. + This allows more control over constructor parameters. +* $wgHTCPMulticastAddress, $wgHTCPMulticastRouting and $wgHTCPPort were removed. +* $wgRC2UDPAddress, $wgRC2UDPInterwikiPrefix, $wgRC2UDPOmitBots, $wgRC2UDPPort + and $wgRC2UDPPrefix have been removed. +* The default password type for MediaWiki has been changed from MD5 to PBKDF2. + Password hashes will automatically be updated as users log in. If necessary, the + old MD5 hashing can be restored by changing $wgPasswordDefault to 'B'. In addition, + there is a maintenance script wrapOldPassword.php that can wrap all passwords in + PBKDF2 (or the hashing algorithm of your choice) if you don't want to wait for your + users to log in. +* $wgImportSources can now either be a regular array, or an associative map + specifying subprojects on the interwiki map of the target wiki, or a mix of + the two. Existing configurations will still work. +* Users must be able to edit through a page's protection to be able to delete it. +* The default thumb size ($wgDefaultUserOptions['thumbsize']) is now 300px, up from + 180px. If you have altered the number of entries in $wgThumbLimits for your wiki, you + may need to adjust your default user settings to compensate for the index change. +* $wgDeferredUpdateList is now deprecated, you should use DeferredUpdates::addUpdate() + instead. +* $wgCanonicalLanguageLinks has been removed. Per Google recommendations, we + will not send a rel=canonical pointing to a variant-neutral page, however + we will send rel=alternate. +* $wgResourceLoaderLESSFunctions has been deprecated and will be removed in the future. +* $wgGoToEdit has been removed. Use the SpecialSearchNogomatch hook for similar + functionality. + +=== New features in 1.24 === +* Added new hook WatchlistEditorBeforeFormRender, allowing subscribers to + manipulate the list of pages and/or preload lots of data at once. +* Added new argument &$link in hook WatchlistEditorBuildRemoveLine, allowing the + link to the title to be changed. +* Added a new hook, "WhatLinksHereProps", to allow extensions to annotate + WhatLinksHere entries. +* Added a new hook, "ContentGetParserOutput", to customize parser output for + a given content object. +* Deprecated the hook "ShowRawCssJs", use "ContentGetParserOutput" instead. +* HTMLForm's HTMLTextField now supports the 'url' type. +* HTMLForm fields may now be dynamically hidden based on the values of other + fields in the form. +* HTMLForm now supports multiple copies of an input field or set of input + fields, e.g. the form may request "one or more usernames" without having to + have the user enter delimited list of names into a text field. +* Added a new hook, "SidebarBeforeOutput", to allow to edit the structure of + the sidebar just before its display. +* (bug 49156) Added the mediawiki.cookie ResourceLoader module, which wraps + jquery.cookie so that getting/setting a cookie is syntactically and + functionally similar to using the WebRequest::getCookie() and + WebResponse::setcookie() methods. +* (bug 44740) jQuery upgraded from 1.8.3 to 1.11.1. A new configuration option, + $wgIncludejQueryMigrate, also loads the jQuery Migrate hack to let extensions + and gadgets use the long-deprecated functions that were removed in jQuery 1.9. + This option is turned off by default, and will be removed in MediaWiki 1.25. +* (bug 47076) jQuery UI upgraded from 1.8.24 to 1.9.2. +* Changes to content typography (fonts, etc.). See + https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information. +* WikitextContent will now render redirects with the expected "redirect" + header, rather than as an ordered list. Code calling Article::viewRedirect + can probably be changed to no longer special-case redirects. +* Header font set to a serif font stack. See + https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Typography_refresh for further information. +* (bug 65567) Added a new hook, "BeforeHttpsRedirect", to allow cancellation of + the HTTP to HTTPS redirect due to forceHTTPS cookie, userRequires, etc. This + is only for page views, since this hook doesn't affect UserLogin, OAuth, + CentralAuth, etc. ATTENTION: This hook is likely to be removed soon due to + overall design of the system. +* (bug 17367) It is now possible to add pages to your watchlist from + Special:UnwatchedPages without reloading the special page. +* New methods setVolatile and isVolatile are added to PPFrame, so that + extensions such as Cite.php can mark that their output is volatile and + shouldn't be cached. +* (bug 52817) Advanced search options are now saved on the search page itself, + rather than in a dedicated pane in the preferences panel. +* (bug 44591) The dropdown actions menu (little triangle next to page tabs) in + the Vector skin has gained a label that should make it more discoverable. +* MWCryptHKDF added for fast, cryptographically secure random number generation + that won't deplete openssl's entropy pool. +* ResourceLoader: File modules can now provide a skip function that uses an + inline feature test to bypass loading of the module. +* (bug 20210) Special pages may now provide autocompletion of their subpage + names in search suggestions. Right now the only useful implementation is in + Special:Log, but more are to come. +* Special:MostLinkedTemplates is no longer limited to transclusions from the + Template namespace. +* Skins can now use 'remoteSkinPath' when defining ResourceLoader modules. + This works the same as 'remoteExtPath' but is relative to the skins/ folder + instead of the extensions/ folder. +* Added the json2.js polyfill for the ES5 JSON.stringify and JSON.parse methods. + Exposed as module "json" with a skip function to optimise loading. +* Extensions and skins may now use 'namemsg' in $wgExtensionCredits in addition + to 'name', to allow for the name to be localizable. 'name' should still be + specified for backwards-compatibility and to define the path Special:Version + uses to find extension license information. +* Browser tests are now included to verify basic wiki functionality in developer + environments. For details on running tests, see tests/browser/README.mediawiki. +* Upgrade jStorage to v0.4.10. +* {{!}} is now a magic word that produces the | character. This removes the need + for Template:! for purposes such as passing pipes inside of parameters. +* (bug 20790) The block log snippet on Special:Contributions and while + editing user and user talk pages now works for IP range blocks. +* (bug 9360) Added ability to change the page language for MediaWiki pages using + Special:PageLanguage. All pages are set to wiki language by default. + The feature needs to be enabled with $wgPageLanguageUseDB=true and + permission needs to be set for 'pagelang'. +* Upgrade Moment.js to v2.8.3. +* (bug 67042) Added support for the HTML5 <rtc> tag for East Asian typography. +* Upgrade Sinon.JS to 1.10.3. +* Added the es5-shim polyfill for older or non-compliant javascript engines. +* Upgrade jQuery Cookie to v1.3.1. +* (bug 20476) Add a "viewsuppressed" user right to be able to view + suppressed content but not suppress it ("suppressrevision" right). +* (bug 66440) The MediaWiki web installer will now allow you to choose the skins + to enable (from the ones included in download tarball) and decide which one + should be the default. +* (bug 68085, 68802) Links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:languageCode:pageTitle]], + where localInterwikiPrefix is a member of the $wgLocalInterwikis array, will + no longer be displayed in the sidebar when $wgInterwikiMagic is true. In a + similar way, links like [[localInterwikiPrefix:File:Image.png]] and + [[localInterwikiPrefix:Category:Hello]] will now render as regular links, and + will not include the file or add the page to the category. +* New special page, MyLanguage, to redirect users to subpages with localised + versions of a page. (Integrated from Extension:Translate) +* MediaWiki now supports multiple password types, including bcrypt and PBKDF2. + The default type can be changed with $wgPasswordDefault and the type + configurations can be changed with $wgPasswordConfig. +* Skins can now define custom styles for default ResourceLoader modules using + the $wgResourceModuleSkinStyles global. See the Vector skin for examples. +* (bug 4488) There is now a preference to watch pages where the user has + rollbacked an edit by default. +* (bug 15484) Users will now be redirected to the login page when they need to + log in, rather than being shown a page asking them to log in and having to click + another link to actually get to the login page. +* A JsonContent and JsonContentHandler were added for extensions to extend. +* (bug 35045) Redirects to sections will now update the URL in browser's address + bar using the HTML5 History API. When [[Dog]] redirects to [[Animals#Dog]], + the user will now see "Animals#Dog" in their browser instead of "Dog#Dog". +* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need + to be updated. See the entry below under "Action API internal changes". +* Added HTMLAutoCompleteSelectField. +* Added a new hook, "SkinPreloadExistence", to allow extensions to add titles to + link existence cache before the page is rendered. +* Config::set() was moved to its own interface, MutableConfig. GlobalVarConfig::set() + is now deprecated, does not implement MutableConfig. +* A MutableConfig named HashConfig was added, that stores an array of configuration settings. - -== MediaWiki 1.23.3 == - -This is a maintenance release of the MediaWiki 1.23 branch. - -=== Changes since 1.23.2 === - -* (bug 68501) Correctly handle incorrect namespace in cleanupTitles.php. -* (bug 64970) Fix support for blobs on DatabaseOracle::update. -* (bug 66574) Display MediaWiki:Loginprompt on the login page. +* (bug 69418) A MultiConfig implementation was added that supports fallback + to multiple Config instances. +* Update CSSJanus to v1.1.0. +* Added FormatJson::parse() returning status with result or localized error message +* Added DeletedContribsPager::reallyDoQuery hook allowing extensions to data to + Special:DeletedContributions +* Added DeletedContributionsLineEnding hook allowing extensions to format + Special:DeletedContributions lines + +=== Bug fixes in 1.24 === +* (bug 50572) MediaWiki:Blockip should support gender +* (bug 49116) Footer copyright notice is now always displayed in user language + rather than content language (same as copyright notice for editing interface). +* (bug 62258) A bug was fixed in File::getUnscaledThumb when a height + restriction was present in the parameters. Images with both the "frame" + option and a size specification set will now always ignore the provided + size and display an unscaled image, as the documentation has always + claimed it would. +* (bug 39035) Improved Vector skin performance by removing collapsibleNav, + which used to collapse some sidebar elements by default. + This removes -list id suffixes like p-lang-list: instead of using things like + #p-lang-list, you can do #p-lang .body ul. +* (bug 890) Links in Special:RecentChanges and Special:Watchlist no longer + follow redirects to their target pages. +* Parser now dies early if called recursively, instead of producing subtle bugs. +* (bug 14323) Redirect pages, when viewed with redirect=no, no longer hide the + remaining page content. +* (bug 52587) Maintenance script deleteBatch.php no longer follows redirects + in the file namespace and delete the file on the target page. It will still + however delete the redirect page. +* (bug 22683) {{msgnw:}} and other uses of PPFrame::RECOVER_ORIG will correctly + recover the original code of extension tags. +* (bug 65757) MSSQL: Update script drops unnamed constraints to be prepared + for future updates. Because it's doing so heuristically, it may fail or drop + wrong constraints. * (bug 67870) wfShellExec() cuts off stdout at multiples of 8192 bytes. -* (bug 60629) Handle invalid language code gracefully in - Language::fetchLanguageNames. -* (bug 62017) Restore the number of rows shown on Special:Watchlist. -* Check for boolean false result from database query in SqlBagOStuff. - -== MediaWiki 1.23.2 == - -This is a security and maintenance release of the MediaWiki 1.23 branch. +* $wgRunJobsAsync now works with private wikis (e.g. read requires login). +* (bugs 57238, 65206) Blank pages can now be directly created. +* (bug 69789) Title::getContentModel() now loads from the database when + necessary instead of incorrectly returning the default content model. +* (bug 69249) wfBaseConvert() now works around PHP Bug #50175 when using GMP. +* (bug 57909) URLs in the externallinks table will no longer have certain + characters decoded in the query string. +* (bug 67368) LESS mixins like .background-image() correctly flip image + references for RTL stylesheets now. + +=== Action API changes in 1.24 === +* action=parse API now supports prop=modules, which provides the list of + ResourceLoader modules that should be used to enhance the parsed content. +* action=query&meta=siteinfo&siprop=interwikimap returns a new "protorel" + field which is true if protocol-relative urls can be used to access + a particular interwiki map entry. +* list=logevents now provides logpage, which is the page ID from the + logging table, if ids are requested and the user has the permissions. +* action=edit now requires that appendtext, prependtext, or section=new be used + when using the 'redirect' parameter, to prevent clients accidentally + overwriting the target page with the content of the redirect. +* list=logevents will now return an error if both letitle and leprefix are + specified. +* list=logevents has a new parameter, lenamespace, to allow filtering by + namespace. +* action=expandtemplates has a new parameter, prop, and a new output format. + The old format is still used if prop isn't provided, but this is deprecated. +* meta=userinfo can now return the count of unread pages on the watchlist. +* list=watchlist can now filter by unread status. +* The deprecated action=parse&prop=languageshtml has been removed. +* (bug 48071) action=setnotificationtimestamp no longer throws PHP or database + errors when no pages are given. +* (bug 60734) Actions that use ApiPageSet (e.g. purge, watch, + setnotificationtimestamp) will now include continuation information when + using a generator. +* Removed 'props' and 'errors' from action=paraminfo, as they have extremely + limited use and are generally inaccurate, unmaintained, and impossible to + properly maintain. +* Formats dbg, dump, txt, wddx, and yaml are now deprecated. +* action=paraminfo now indicates when a parameter is specifying a submodule. +* The iwurl parameter to prop=iwlinks is deprecated in favor of iwprop=url, for + parallelism with prop=langlinks. +* All tokens should be fetched from action=query&meta=tokens; all other methods + of fetching tokens are deprecated. The value needed for meta=tokens's 'type' + parameter for each module is documented in the action=help output and is + returned from action=paraminfo. +* New action ClearHasMsg that can be used to clear HasMsg flag. +* The cmstartsortkey and cmendsortkey parameters to list=categorymembers are + deprecated in favor of cmstarthexsortkey and cmendhexsortkey. +* (bug 63326) Add blockedtimestamp field to output of blockinfo property for + the list=allusers and list=users modules. +* prop=imageinfo no longer requires iiurlwidth to be set when using iiurlparam. +* Added prop=linkshere, prop=fileusage, and prop=transcludedin, which are + roughly equivalent to list=backlinks, list=imageusage, and list=embeddedin + but can work on a list of titles (including titles from a generator). +* prop=redirects can now filter returned redirects by namespace. + +=== Action API internal changes in 1.24 === +* Methods for handling continuation are added to ApiResult, so actions other + than query that use generators can easily support continuation. +* $wgAPIModules (and the related $wgAPIFormatModules, $wgAPIMetaModules, + $wgAPIPropModules, and $wgAPIListModules settings) now allow API modules + to be specified using a "module spec" array instead of a plain class name. + A "module spec" is an associative array containing at least the 'class' key + for the module's class, and optionally a 'factory' key for the factory function + to use for the module. This is intended for extensions that want control over + the instantiation of their API modules, to allow for proper dependency + injection. +* A new param type 'submodule' is available. Parameters of this type will take + the list of valid values from the module's ApiModuleManager for the group + corresponding to the parameter name. +* The 'APIGetPossibleErrors' and 'APIGetResultProperties' hooks are no longer used. +* API token handling has been rewritten. Any API module using tokens will need + to be updated: + * ApiBase::needsToken now returns a token type instead of boolean true when a + token is needed. Returning true will throw an exception. See documentation + of that method for details. + * Information for the 'token' parameter is automatically set by ApiBase + getFinalParams and getFinalParamDescription. + * ApiBase::getTokenSalt has been removed. + * The hooks APIQueryInfoTokens, APIQueryRevisionsTokens, + APIQueryRecentChangesTokens, APIQueryUsersTokens, and + ApiTokensGetTokenTypes are deprecated, but are still called to support + backwards-compatible token access. +* ApiBase::validateLimit and ApiBase::validateTimestamp are now protected. +* ApiQueryRedirects was removed; prop=redirects is now implemented by + ApiQueryBacklinksProp along with the newly-added prop modules. +* The following methods have been deprecated and may be removed in a future + release: + * ApiBase::getResultProperties + * ApiBase::getFinalResultProperties + * ApiBase::addTokenProperties + * ApiBase::getRequireOnlyOneParameterErrorMessages + * ApiBase::getRequireMaxOneParameterErrorMessages + * ApiBase::getRequireAtLeastOneParameterErrorMessages + * ApiBase::getTitleOrPageIdErrorMessage + * ApiBase::getPossibleErrors + * ApiBase::getFinalPossibleErrors + * ApiBase::parseErrors + * ApiQuery::setGeneratorContinue + * ApiQueryBase::checkRowCount + * ApiQueryBase::titleToKey + * ApiQueryBase::keyToTitle + * ApiQueryBase::keyPartToTitle + * ApiQueryInfo::getTokenFunctions + * ApiQueryInfo::resetTokenCache + * ApiQueryInfo::getEditToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getDeleteToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getProtectToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getMoveToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getBlockToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getUnblockToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getEmailToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getImportToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getWatchToken + * ApiQueryInfo::getOptionsToken + * ApiQueryRecentChanges::getTokenFunctions + * ApiQueryRecentChanges::getPatrolToken + * ApiQueryRevisions::getTokenFunctions + * ApiQueryRevisions::getRollbackToken + * ApiQueryUsers::getTokenFunctions + * ApiQueryUsers::getUserrightsToken +* The following classes have been deprecated and may be removed in a future + release: + * ApiFormatDbg + * ApiFormatDump + * ApiFormatTxt + * ApiFormatWddx + * ApiFormatYaml + * ApiTokens +* The following class constants have been deprecated and may be removed in a + future release: + * ApiBase::PROP_ROOT + * ApiBase::PROP_LIST + * ApiBase::PROP_TYPE + * ApiBase::PROP_NULLABLE + +=== Languages updated in 1.24 === -=== Changes since 1.23.1 === +MediaWiki supports over 350 languages. Many localisations are updated +regularly.

They will be installed with the release tarball, but you must + install them separately if installing MediaWiki from source code. A warning + message displayed until you do it should guide you through the process. See + also <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_configuration>. +* BREAKING CHANGE: Skins built for MediaWiki 1.15 and earlier that do not use + the "headelement" template key are no longer supported. Setting + $useHeadElement = false; is no longer supported and will not cause old keys + like "headlinks", "skinnameclass", etc. to be defined. +* BREAKING CHANGE: The files commonElements.css, commonContent.css and + commonInterface.css (in skins/common/) have been removed. Skins may no longer + rely on their presence and include them in their style modules. ResourceLoader + modules introduced in MediaWiki 1.23 should be loaded instead: + - skins/common/commonElements.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.elements' module + - skins/common/commonContent.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.content' module + - skins/common/commonInterface.css → 'mediawiki.skinning.interface' module +* The deprecated 'SpecialVersionExtensionTypes' hook was removed. +* (bug 63891) Add 'X-Robots-Tag: noindex' header in action=render pages. +* SpecialPage no longer supports the syntax for invoking wfSpecial*() functions. + Special pages should subclass SpecialPage and implement the execute() method. +* (bug 63755) The deprecated constants RC_MOVE and RC_MOVE_OVER_REDIRECT were + removed. +* Special:MostLinkedTemplates has been renamed to Special:MostTranscludedPages. +* The skin autodiscovery mechanism has been deprecated and will be removed in + MediaWiki 1.25. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Skin_autodiscovery + for migration guide for creators and users of custom skins that relied on it. +* ResourceLoaderFileModule#getAllStyleFiles now returns all style files and all + skin style files used by the module. +* Removed getLang() from IContextSource and subclasses.
