We are aware that a minority of users have timeout issues when choosing InnoDB instead of MyISAM as the database engine in the web installer. This is not a new issue and affected Tiki 12.2 also. This affects only certain server environments. The workaround for this problem is to install using MyISAM and then running db/tiki_convert_myisam_to_innodb.sql in order to convert the databases to InnoDB.
Users have reported problems with installing in subdirectories with a tilda (~) in the URL. This problem affects Tiki 12 too.
Information for upgraders to Tiki 13. Tiki 13 marks the beginning of a major change to the Bootstrap CSS framework for display. When upgrading an old site, you will experience disruptions in visual look and feel, but at the same time you will see much improvement to a modern and responsive look.
Nevertheless, you will need to upgrade your theme to Bootstrap, or choose a theme which is bootstrap-ready from somewhere else. Also, some reconfiguration will be required. Please see below.
For more information, see:
Since file design.css has been renamed to tiki.css, any customization to that design.css file on disk must be ported to the new tiki.css
Note that top and topbar modules will now go full width by default. You will find that things like search and menu bars might be full width which is not what you want. To reduce their width, go to Admin..Modules and set under "Appearance" a "Containing Class".
For example, if you set the containing class to col-md-9 (e.g. the top menu on Tiki.org sites), the module will take up 9 out of the 12 columns of the bootstrap grid. If you set the containing class to col-md-3 (e.g. the top search bar module on Tiki.org sites), the module will only take up 3 out of 12 columns of the bootstrap grid.
In Tiki 12 you might have set the Jquery-UI theme to None in order to avoid other issues, but now in Tiki 13 you might find that jQuery-UI popups might have a transparent background. To fix this, simply set the jQuery-UI theme to something or reset it to the default.
If you have menus using the following syntax, e.g. in custom modules:
{menu id=42 css=y type=vert}
You will need to add bootstrap=y on order to get the bootstrap version
{menu id=42 bootstrap=y css=y type=vert}
Bootstrap has a mobile focused approach and so prefers to have one level deep menus as these are considered best for mobile devices. So for bootstrap style menus you should have section level 0 and options at Tiki menu administration.
If you want a deeper menu structure than set the "Use Bootstrap menus" option at module administration to "n" in order to escape Bootstrap styling and preserve multi-level menus (section level 1, section level 2, section level 3).
Use bootstrap=n in case you include a menu in a custom module or tpl.
{menu id=42 bootstrap=n css=y type=vert}
Instances of div classes in wiki text etc. (such as divs thirdfloat, to have display in 3 cols), should be replaced by Bootstrap grid divs.

After upgrading, if you have plugins throughout the site that need approval, you can goto tiki-plugins.php (as a admin) to approve them all. There is a button at the bottom of that page to approve all plugins.
