Tiki11


Tiki 11 was released in July 2013. It was supported until version 12.1 was released, as of Version lifecycle.

Like 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.

** Upgrades **

Things to watch out for

  • Composer Many externals have not yet been moved to Composer
  • URL Rewriting Revamp
  • CKEditor4
  • jQuery, jQueryUI and jQuery Mobile to be updated to the latest stable versions.
  • elFinder is optional but it could affect some things in File Gallery
  • Blog posts with content containing HTML may not display properly after upgrading - place the blog post content within PluginHTML to solve this issue. PluginHTML needs to be approved - if you are converting many blog posts go to tiki-plugins.php to approve in bulk.

Composer

When installing or updating through subversion, some external libraries are nowadays handled differently (using "composer"):

This also means that you might have to install some extra packages such as php5-gmp php-compat in your server (or request to have them installed for your), for optimal work by phpseclib. Otherwise, you might see this type of message:

phpseclib/phpseclib suggests installing ext-gmp (Install the GMP (GNU Multiple Precision) extension in order to speed up arbitrary precision integer arithmetic operations.)
phpseclib/phpseclib suggests installing pear-pear/PHP_Compat (Install PHP_Compat to get phpseclib working on PHP = 4.3.3.)


You can install them in Debian-based server (adapt to your OS if different) with a command like:

Command in a console
Copy to clipboard
sudo apt-get install php5-gmp php-compat


To install on Mac OSX (Moutain Lion 10.8) it have to be tricked a little bit as Mac OSX Unix doesn't come with some basic command we usually use (like apt-get or wget, etc).

You can install http://www.macports.org/" class="wiki wikinew text-danger tips">MacPorts (xcode will be required too, follow the install guide) to get usual set of command required to install what Composer need.
Then you'll be able to do:

Command in a Mac Terminal once MacPorts in installed
Copy to clipboard
sudo port install php5-gmp sudo port install php5-mcrypt


It is also required you install PEAR php_compat. (since Mac OSX 10.5)

Command in a Mac Terminal once MacPorts in installed to check and install PEAR/PHP_COMPAT
Copy to clipboard
which pear (to check anyway if it is installed) sudo wget http://pear.php.net/go-pear.phar sudo php -d detect_unicode=0 go-pear.phar


You should have no more worries installing Tiki and Composer stuff on Mac OSX.
