MediaWiki 1.24/nl

MediaWiki 1.24 is de huidige stabiele MediaWikiversie. Lees het bestand "" voor een volledige lijst van veranderingen. Deze is op dit moment in gebruik op wiki's van de Wikimedia Foundation sinds april 2014, met de "wmf"-branches. 1.24.0 werd gelanceerd als een stabiele versie op woensdag 26 november. Download de of clone de  -branch in Git om van 1.24 gebruik te maken.

Preferences made easier
MediaWiki staat bekend als zeer flexibel en aanpasbaar, maar slechts een aantal gebruikers halen eruit wat erin zit. In 1.24 proberen we duizenden instellingen makkelijker voor anderen in gebruik te maken.



Nieuwe functies

 * Category pages can now be moved.
 * MergeHistory for all administrators by default.
 * Improvements have been made to the password storage system in 77645, allowing improved security against offline attacks should a wiki's database be compromised by attackers. Then, in 149658, the default password storage algorithm was changed to PBKDF2.
 * PBKDF2 and Bcrypt have built-in support in PHP. The new extensible password API makes it trivial to implement scrypt support if we wanted to.

Toegangkelijkheid

 * The move feature and other actions are now discoverable in Vector, thanks to a label for the dropdown where they're hidden by default.

Prestaties
Tijdens de ontwikkelingsfase van 1.24, werd er gekeken naar prestaties.
 * Vector skin performance was improved by removing collapsibleNav, which was used to collapse some sidebar elements by default. This removes  suffixes like   which means that instead of using things like , you need to use.
 * If you would like CollapsibleNav back, use the CollapsibleVector extension.

Belangrijke veranderingen

 * Upgraded jQuery to version 1.11.x.
 * Support for register_globals (deprecated 5 years ago) was dropped, MediaWiki will no longer run with it enabled. See this email notification for more details.
 * is now a magic word that results in, mainly for use in templates and other complex templates. If your wiki has a template at Template:!, you will need to change the name and update any usage of it. If your Template:! is just  , it can be safely deleted.

API-veranderingen
Vanaf MediaWiki 1.24 zijn we de API aan het opruimen, en werken we voort naar een 2.0-versie van de API. Zie hier voor meer informatie.


 * De volgende formaten zijn vanaf nu officieel gemarkeerd als verouderd: dbg, dump, txt, wddx, en yaml. In een toekomstige versie zullen deze formaten niet langer beschikbaar zijn.
 * Token handling overhauled: the action=query module is now deprecated and replaced by action=query&meta=tokens. Most actions now just take a generic "csrf" token, and the token type is now properly documented in the auto-generated documentation.
 * En meer! Zie het bestand "" voor een volledige lijst.

Verandering aan de mappenstructuur

 * The legacy skins/common/ directory has been emptied and deleted as part of the skin system cleanup. Files that have been present in it have been moved elsewhere or deleted (if they were unused). If you loaded any of these files as part of your custom skin or on-wiki CSS/JS, you should make a copy of the old files in a non-MediaWiki directory. See the file for the full list of moved/deleted files.

Browserondersteuning

 * Full support for Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 has been removed.  Users of these browsers will not have any JavaScript when using MediaWiki. JavaScript fixes specific to them have also been removed. Additional Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 fixes that exist in pages of your wiki like MediaWiki:Common.js and similar can be safely removed if you want to keep your site's browser support consistent.
 * See Compatibility for more information.

Skins no longer loaded after upgrade?

 * MediaWiki 1.24 no longer uses the skin autodiscovery mechanism to load default skins, instead requiring that the skins be manually loaded in, much like extensions (see Manual:Skin configuration).
 * This will require you to update  after the upgrade – a prominently displayed warning message should guide you through the process, suggesting the exact configuration that you need to add.If you're upgrading via a tarball release, that is all you need to do.
 * If you're upgrading via git or otherwise from source, note that the skins themselves have been each moved to a separate repository and will need to be installed separately (much like extensions, some basic ones are included in the tarball).
