Tiki10


Tiki 10.x was released on 2012-12-19, and is supported until 11.1 is released

Even though it's just after a Long Term Support version and there are quite a few new features, there are relatively few major structural changes that will make upgrades difficult or cause regressions. See Roadmap and Tiki10

Since PHP 5.2 started in November 2006 and PHP 5.2.x reached end of life in December 2010, which is two years before the release of Tiki10, the requirements are PHP 5.3.x

If you require pre-5.3 support, you can use Tiki9 which is a Long Term Support version.

1.1. Batch Upload

It is now possible to integrate very large files into the Tiki File Gallery using Batch Upload.
See Batch Upload for details.

1.2. BigBlueButton

  • It is now possible for admins to delete recordings
  • New explicit permission tiki_p_bigbluebutton_view_rec needed to view recordings:
    • tiki_p_bigbluebutton_view_rec is no longer implicit if tiki_p_bigbluebutton_join is granted

1.3.1. Check Permissions

Permission Check: If Tiki installer and tiki-check.php fail, Tiki Permission Check can be used to figure out some details about filesystem permissions needed by the webserver to make those ones work.

1.3.2. Check Server

  • tiki-check.php checks the server is appropriately configured for Tiki. See: Server Check

1.4. Code Review

1.5. Comments and Ratings

  • It is now possible to restrict which tools are available in SVG-edit, thus offering a simplified experience. See Draw

1.15. Mail Queue

There is a new feature to place all notification email messages in a queue, and send all those emails periodically through a Cron job using ./sendmail.php script.

This requires setting up mail delivery with a SMTP server instead of just sendmail, and set it to use a Queue.

1.16. Maps

  • OpenLayers upgraded to 2.12
  • Added MapQuest Open tilesets
  • And many many other fixes and improvements which were made for the CartoGraf project, an interactive web-based mapping application to enhance learning in history and geography classes in high schools. CartoGraf is mainly based on Maps, Drawings, PluginAppFrame and Trackers. This is a great example of how to use profiles to use a general purpose app (Tiki) to make a very specific application (CartoGraf).

See #Structures_Drill_Down_menu

1.18. Modules

You can use this from admin -> profiles -> export

1.18.1. Facebook module

  • NEW: Module facebook to show Facebook wall (messages and stories) of a Tiki user

1.18.2. Twitter module

Namespaces have been added, in order to facilitate the creation of different workspaces with common page names, for instance, among them (aka: "Introduction", "About", "Team memmbers", etc).

  • PluginProposal: Added the ability to set custom weights to groups in the proposal plugin, which affects the stored attributes. This is useful for Code Review

1.21.4. PluginTrackerCalendar

It allows managing tracker items as resources in a calendar view: i.e. it uses FullCalendar ResourceViews to render the content of a tracker. The feature is not using the Tiki feature Calendar, so that you don't need to have "Calendar" feature enabled for this plugin to display data in a calendar view.

See PluginTrackerCalendar and the profile to easily add a working example in your site: http://profiles.tiki.org/Tracker_as_Calendar_10

1.21.5. PluginTrackerQueryTemplate

It allows to generate forms from a tracker. Currently only able to list data, the TrackerQueryTemplate plugin simply obtains data from a tracker and allows an editor the ability to list the tracker data as he sees fit.

See PluginTrackerQueryTemplate

1.22. References

References implements local references in Tiki. Tiki also has support for Zotero references, but they are stored externally on the Zotero server.

1.23. Screencast

This permits to capture your screen and upload to Tiki.

  • Still image
  • or Video with sound


This is thanks to the inclusion of the jCapture applet in Tiki.

See: ScreenCast

Search results 'Default where' parameter changed from a single select drop down selector to a multiple checkbox selection so that custom 'mixes' of content types can be included in search results

Search results can now be sorted (asc or desc) by: Relevance (default); Title; Modified date; or Visits

See #Check_Server

1.26. Structures Drill Down menu

A Drill Down menu for structures has been added, so that when the user passes the mouse over a node in the line indicating the path to that node in the structure hierarchy, the names of all the children of that node will be displayed below the path to that structure node as links for easier navigation.

1.29. Version checker

1.30. Wiki syntax change for center
