old and the new schema, but reading the new schema, so Multi-Content Revisions
(MCR) are now functional per default. The new default value of the setting is
SCHEMA_COMPAT_WRITE_BOTH | SCHEMA_COMPAT_READ_NEW.
+* $wgActorTableSchemaMigrationStage no longer accepts MIGRATION_WRITE_BOTH or
+ MIGRATION_WRITE_NEW. It instead uses SCHEMA_COMPAT_WRITE_BOTH |
+ SCHEMA_COMPAT_READ_OLD and SCHEMA_COMPAT_WRITE_BOTH | SCHEMA_COMPAT_READ_NEW
+ for intermediate stages of migration.
==== Removed configuration ====
* $wgEnableAPI and $wgEnableWriteAPI – These settings, deprecated in 1.31,
This action should be considered deprecated and should not be used directly.
* Extensions overriding ContentHandler::getUndoContent() will need to be
updated for the changed method signature.
+* Added a new hook, 'UserGetRightsRemove', which can be used to remove rights
+ from user. Unlike the 'UserGetRights' it will ensure that removed rights
+ will not be reinserted.
=== External library changes in 1.32 ===
==== New external libraries ====
-* Added wikimedia/xmp-reader 0.6.0

=== Bug fixes in 1.32 ===
* SpecialPage::execute() will now only call checkLoginSecurityLevel() if
getLoginSecurityLevel() returns non-false.
* (T43720, T46197) Improved page display title handling for category pages
+* (T65080) Fixed resetting options of some types via API action=options.
=== Action API changes in 1.32 ===
* Added templated parameters.
content is not being preserved. 'fromsection-{slot}' and 'tosection-{slot}'
instead expand the given text as if for a section edit. This effectively
declines T183823 in favor of T185723.
+* (T198214) The 'disabletidy' parameter to action=parse has been
+ deprecated; untidy output will not be supported by future wikitext
+ parsers.
=== Action API internal changes in 1.32 ===
* Added 'ApiParseMakeOutputPage' hook.
* 'uppercase-se' (NorthernSamiUppercaseCollation) - use 'uca-se' instead
* 'xx-uca-et' (CollationEt) - use 'uca-et' instead
* 'xx-uca-fa' (CollationFa) - use 'uca-fa' instead
+* LanguageCode::bcp47() now always returns a valid BCP 47 code. This means
+ that some MediaWiki-specific language codes, such as `simple`, are mapped
+ into valid BCP 47 codes (eg `en-simple`).
* The hooks 'SpecialRecentChangesFilters' & 'SpecialWatchlistFilters' deprecated
in 1.23 were removed. Instead, use 'ChangesListSpecialPageStructuredFilters'.
The ChangesListSpecialPage code for these legacy hooks, and their use in
Wikimedia\Rdbms\LBFactory.
* The MimeMagic class, deprecated since 1.28 has been removed. Get a
MimeAnalyzer instance from MediaWikiServices instead.
+* The '--tidy' option to maintenance/parse.php has been removed. Tidying
+ the output is now the default. Use '--no-tidy' to bypass the tidy
+ phase.
+* The global function wfErrorLog, deprecated since 1.25, has now been removed.
+ Use MWLoggerLegacyLogger::emit or UDPTransport.
+* The hooks 'SpecialRecentChangesQuery' & 'SpecialWatchlistQuery', deprecated in
+ 1.23, were removed. Instead, use ChangesListSpecialPageStructuredFilters or
+ ChangesListSpecialPageQuery.
+* The global function wfUsePHP, deprecated since 1.30, has now been removed. To
+ assert a newer version of PHP than MediaWiki does, use extension registration.
=== Deprecations in 1.32 ===
* HTMLForm::setSubmitProgressive() is deprecated. No need to call it. Submit
$wgTidyConfig instead.
* All Tidy configurations other than Remex have been hard deprecated;
future parsers will not emit compatible output for these configurations.
+* (T198214) OutputPage::addWikiText(), OutputPage::addWikiTextWithTitle(),
+ and OutputPage::addWikiTextTitle() have been deprecated, since they
+ can result in untidy output. In addition OutputPage::addWikiTextTidy()
+ and OutputPage::addWikiTextTitleTidy() was deprecated to make naming new
+ methods consistent. Use OutputPage::addWikiTextAsInterface() or
+ OutputPage::addWikiTextAsContent() instead, which ensures the output is
+ tidy and clarifies whether content-language specific postprocessing should
+ be done on the text.
* QuickTemplate::msgHtml() and BaseTemplate::msgHtml() have been deprecated
as they promote bad practises. I18n messages should always be properly
escaped.
+* Skin::getDynamicStylesheetQuery() has been deprecated. It always
+ returns action=raw&ctype=text/css which callers should use directly.
+* Class LegacyFormatter is deprecated.
+* Use of CommentStore::insertWithTempTable() with 'img_description' is
+ deprecated. Use CommentStore::insert() instead.
+* Language::setCode is deprecated as public function. Use Language::factory
+ to create a new Language object with a different language code.
+* Several classes have been moved from the MediaWiki\Storage\ namespace to the
+ MediaWiki\Revision\ namespace. The old class names are aliased for
+ compatibility, but are deprecated. Classes are IncompleteRevisionException,
+ MutableRevisionRecord, MutableRevisionSlots, RevisionAccessException,
+ RevisionArchiveRecord, RevisionFactory, RevisionLookup, RevisionRecord,
+ RevisionSlots, RevisionStore, RevisionStoreRecord, SlotRecord, and
+ SuppressedDataException.
+* When using OOUI HTMLForm containing an 'info' field which uses the 'rawrow'
+ option, it is now deprecated to give its contents (the 'default' option)
+ as a string. They should be given as a OOUI\FieldLayout object instead.
+ Notably, this affects fields defined in the 'GetPreferences' hook, because
+ Special:Preferences uses an OOUI form now. (If possible, don't use 'rawrow'.)
=== Other changes in 1.32 ===
* (T198811) The following tables have had their UNIQUE indexes turned into
yet for creating or managing content in slots beides the main slot. See
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Multi-Content_Revisions> for more
information.
-* …
+* The image_comment_temp database table is merged into the image table and
+ deprecated. Since access should be mediated by the CommentStore class, this
+ change shouldn't affect external code.
+* (T206147) Database::close() will no longer commit any open transactions.
