-News for ikiwiki 2.16:
-
- 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".
- 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
- contain out of date calendars.

-ikiwiki 2.16 released with [[toggle text="these changes"]]
-[[toggleable text="""
- * Major basewiki reorganisation. Most pages moved into ikiwiki/ subdirectory
- to avoid polluting the main namespace, and some were further renamed.
- * meta: Add redir support, based on a patch by Thomas Schwinge.
- * Redirs added for moved basewiki pages. These will be removed in a future
- release.
- * Remove .otl file from sandbox to avoid build ugliness. Closes: #[454181](http://bugs.debian.org/454181)
- * Finally implemented a simple per-page data storage mechanism for plugins,
- via the %pagestate hash.
- * Use pagestate in meta to detect potential redir loops.
- * Added a version plugin that saves state about what's using it, to force
- pages to rebuild when ikiwiki's version changes.
- * The calendar plugin stores state about when it needs to be updated,
- and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
- running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
- wiki rebuild each midnight.
- * calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
- enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
- * Fix file pruning code to work if ikiwiki is run with "." as the srcdir.
- * Add an edittemplate plugin, allowing registering template pages, that
- provide default content for new pages created using the web frontend.
- * Change formbuilder hook to not be responsible for displaying a form,
- so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
- I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
- (If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
- * Ensure that web edited pages always end in a newline.
- * Avoid unnecessary stat calls to get mtime when rendering pages, use
- cached value.
- * Preserve input file modification times in output files.
- * Allow dashes in preprocessor directive commands, and shortcuts.
- * Htmlize parameters passed to the template preprocessor directive before
- inserting them into the html template. This ensures that markdown
- acts on them, even if the value is expanded inside a block-level html
- element in the html template. Closes: #[454058](http://bugs.debian.org/454058)
- * Use a div in the note template rather than a span.
- * shortcut: Expand %S to the raw input text, not url-encoded.
- * Don't increment feed numbers when an inline has no feeds. (Nis Martensen)
- * Allow editing a page and deleting all content, while still disallowing
- creating a new page that's entirely empty.
- * meta: Drop support for "meta link", since supporting this for internal
- links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
- storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
- duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
- * If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
- openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
- that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
- the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
- back that support.)
- * meta: Improved data storage.
- * meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
- stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
- liw's disappearing openids).
- * aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
- * map: Don't inline images.
- * brokenlinks: Don't list the same link multiple times. (%links might
- contain multiple copies of the same link)
- * git: Correct display of multiline commit messages in recentchanges.
- * Re-organise dependencies and recommends now that recommends are installed
- by default.
- * Don't refuse to render files with ".." in their name. (Anchor the regexp.)
- * Work around perl taint checking bug #411786, where perl sometimes randomly
- sets the taint flag on untainted variables, by disabling taint checking
- in the deb. This sucks."""]]
