16 This is the release notes for [[XWiki Commons>>http://commons.xwiki.org]], [[XWiki Rendering>>http://rendering.xwiki.org]] and [[XWiki Platform>>http://platform.xwiki.org]]. They share the same release notes as they are released together and have the same version.

18 This release introduces a new (experimental) image dialog for the WYSIWYG editor and a new administration section to define image styles, with the goal to simplify the insertion and editing of images. On the same topic, the image popover now provides an image permalink and the image lightbox added the ability to copy the image identifier to clipboard to be used as link anchor or to be referenced by wiki macros. Finally, the images (or any files) uploaded through the WYSIWYG editor are not saved right away anymore but, instead, they create temporary attachments that are saved only when the edited content is saved. All these image related improvements, along with a lot of bug fixes, make this release worth trying.

102 == General Notes ==
103
104 * When upgrading make sure you compare and merge the following XWiki configuration files since some parameters may have been modified, removed or added:
105 ** ##xwiki.cfg##
106 ** ##xwiki.properties##
107 ** ##web.xml##
108 ** ##hibernate.cfg.xml##
109 * Add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## in ##xwiki.cfg## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to any new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.

113 The long deprecated ##inline## action has been moved to legacy. It is still bundled in XWiki Standard for now but we encourage all extension developers to update their code to use the ##edit## action instead:

116 - $doc.getURL('inline')
117 + $doc.getURL('edit')
