| 6 | |||
| 7 | = New and Noteworthy (since 3.4 Milestone 1) = | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | Checkout the full unabridged [[list of issues>>https://jira.xwiki.org/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-printable/temp/SearchRequest.html?jqlQuery=project+in+%28XCOMMONS%2C+XRENDERING%2C+XWIKI%2C+XE%2C+XEM%29+and+status+%3D+Closed+and+resolution+%3D+Fixed+and+fixVersion+%3D+%223.4-rc-1%22&tempMax=1000]] fixed in this release. | ||

| 11 | == UI to import and synchronize external extensions in the repository == | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | It's now possible to easily import an extension from any repository into XWiki Repository. | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | A common use case is the need to make a maven extension available to the search with a complete documentation since search is not supported in plain maven repositories and it's hard to add a nice documentation in maven pom.xml since there is no real place for it (just a summary). | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | XWiki Repository then act as a proxy for the actual extension file. | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | == New ColorThemes added == | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | We have 3 new colorthemes: Mint, Ruby and Dusk. | ||
| 22 | [[[[image:colorthemes34.png||style="border:1px solid gray; padding: 0.2em; width:600px;"]]>>attach:colorthemes34.png]] | ||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | These new themes deprecate the old ones, which are removed from our default distribution. The deprecated themes are still available at extensions.xwiki.org: | ||

| 72 | |||
| 73 | == General Notes == | ||
| 74 | |||
| 75 | {{warning}} | ||
| 76 | If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in //xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//. | ||
| 77 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 78 | |||
| 79 | You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from all the improvements listed above. | ||
| 80 | |||
| 81 | {{warning}} | ||
| 82 | Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything. | ||
