(For example, templates/page.tmpl.) When these templates + are changed, ikiwiki will automatically rebuild pages that use them. + + Allowing untrusted users to upload attachments with the ".tmpl" + extension is not recommended, as that allows anyone to change + a wiki's templates. + + The --getctime switch is renamed to --gettimes, and it also gets the + file modification time. And it's a lot faster (when using git). But + the really important change is, you don't have to remember to use this + switch. Now ikiwiki will do it when it needs to. + + At last, the "tagged()" pagespec only matches tags, not regular wikilinks. + If your wiki accidentially relied on the old, buggy behavior, you might + need to change its pagespecs to use "link()". + + Many of your wishes have been answered: Now tag pages can automatically be + created when new tags are used. This feature is enabled by default if you + have configured a tagbase. It can be turned on or off using the + tag_autocreate setting. + + These changes may also affect some users: + + * The title_natural sort method (as used by the inline directive, etc) + has been moved to the new sortnaturally plugin, which is not enabled + by default since it requires the Sort::Naturally perl module. + + * The add_templates option has been removed from the underlay plugin. + If you used this option, you can instead use templates/ subdirectories + inside underlay directories added by the add_underlays option. + + Due to the above and other changes, all wikis need to be rebuilt on + upgrade to this version. If you listed your wiki in /etc/ikiwiki/wikilist + this will be done automatically when the Debian package is upgraded.
