News for ikiwiki 2.46:

There were some significant template changes in ikiwiki 2.42 (and 1.33.5). If you have locally modified versions of the templates, they need to be updated. Most notably, the editpage.tmpl has a new FIELD-SID added to it, without which web editing will fail.

  • amazon_s3: New plugin, which injects wiki pages into Amazon S3, allowing ikiwiki to be used without a dedicated web server.
  • aggregate: Add support for web-based triggering of aggregation for people stuck on shared hosting without cron. (Sheesh.) Enabled via the aggregate\_webtrigger configuration optiom.

  • Optimised file statting code when scanning for modified pages; cut the number of system calls in half. (Still room for improvement.)
  • Fixes for behavior changes in perl 5.10's CGI that broke utf-8 support in several interesting ways."""]]
