|

At the "Admin Menus" screen for the standard Application menu you will no longer have the usual Edit, Configure/Options Action icons. Instead you will see a RESET button and the clone icon. Therefore, in order to edit the main application menu, you have to clone it and use a copy for your edited versions. |
1.17. Mobile with jQuery Mobile | |
Tiki Mobile with HAWHAW was first released in 2004 and it was impressive for the time. Nowadays, phones are much more powerful and now that Tiki6 LTS is done, it's now time to make major changes. Thus, we are moving to jQuery Mobile. MobileESP will handle device detection. |

1.22.2. Pending approval notification | |

See Plugins for more information. |

A plugin to show the expiry of a group a user is in.

|
1.22.6. PluginTrackerList: new param 'tplwiki' | |

|
1.27. Spreadsheet | |
It has been even more AJAX-ified, so that the edit interface loads in the browser, without the need to contact the server at that point. |
1.28. Syntax Highlighter | |
Tiki is now using CodeMirror as a syntax highlighter and indentation helper, which allows to highlight syntax in real time when the user is typing it. It will also help with auto indentation of code (when required in some syntax) while typing it. The first step in the implementation has been in PluginCode and PluginR, but the goal is to extend it somehow to any textarea used in most Tiki features.
|
