== MediaWiki 1.32 == THIS IS NOT A RELEASE YET MediaWiki 1.32 is an alpha-quality branch and is not recommended for use in production. === Configuration changes in 1.32 === * (T115414) The $wgEnableAPI and $wgEnableWriteAPI settings, deprecated in 1.31, have been removed. * The $wgUseAjax setting, deprecated in 1.31, is now ignored. * The $wgSiteSupportPage setting, unused since 1.5, was removed. * The default quality of JPEG thumbnails generated by GD was reduced from 95 to 80.

Disabled by default, you can configure this via $wgCSPHeader and $wgCSPReportOnlyHeader. === New features in 1.32 === * (T112474) Generalized the ResourceLoader mechanism for overriding modules using a particular page during edit previews. * Added 'ApiParseMakeOutputPage' hook. === External library changes in 1.32 === * … ==== Upgraded external libraries ==== * Updated QUnit from 2.4.0 to 2.6.0. ==== New external libraries ==== * … ==== Removed and replaced external libraries ==== * … === Bug fixes in 1.32 === * … === Action API changes in 1.32 === * … === Action API internal changes in 1.32 === * Added 'ApiParseMakeOutputPage' hook. === Languages updated in 1.32 === MediaWiki supports over 350 languages.

Although HHVM 3.18.5 or later is supported, it is generally advised to use PHP 5.5.9 or later for long term support. MySQL/MariaDB is the recommended DBMS. PostgreSQL or SQLite can also be used, but support for them is somewhat less mature. There is experimental support for Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server. The supported versions are: * MySQL 5.5.8 or later * PostgreSQL 9.2 or later * SQLite 3.3.7 or later * Oracle 9.0.1 or later * Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (9.00.1399) == Upgrading == 1.32 has several database changes since 1.31, and will not work without schema updates. Note that due to changes to some very large tables like the revision table, the schema update may take quite long (minutes on a medium sized site, many hours on a large site). Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading! See the file UPGRADE for more detailed upgrade instructions, including important information when upgrading from versions prior to 1.11.
