Steps

To downgrade your wiki:

  1. Make sure you read the warnings and risks you're taking before downgrading.
  2. Export your wiki Pages as XAR files. Only export pages that contain your own content, not the default pages provided by the XWiki distribution or by installed extensions.
  3. Install the older XWiki version from scratch.
  4. Reinstall the optional extensions that you need.
  5. Reimport your XAR files into the downgraded instance.

FAQ

What are the results of downgrading?

This method prevents issues arising from database schema changes and ensures that only content compatible with the older version is restored. However, downgrading is not the recommended solution for most problems. Only consider downgrading if upgrading is not possible or does not resolve the problem.
