+= MediaWiki 1.27 =
+
+== MediaWiki 1.27.0 ==
+
+=== PHP version requirement in 1.27 ===
+As of 1.27, MediaWiki now requires PHP 5.5.9 or higher (see Compatibility
+section). Additionally, the following PHP extensions are required:
+* ctype
+* iconv
+* json
+* mbstring (new requirement in 1.27)
+* xml
+The following PHP extensions are strongly recommended:
+* openssl
+
+=== Configuration changes in 1.27 ===
+* $wgAllowMicrodataAttributes and $wgAllowRdfaAttributes were removed,
+ now always enabled. If you use RDFa on your wiki, you now have to explicitly
+ set $wgHtml5Version to 'HTML+RDFa 1.0' or 'XHTML+RDFa 1.0'.
+* $wgUseLinkNamespaceDBFields was removed.
+* Deprecated $wgResourceLoaderMinifierStatementsOnOwnLine and
+ $wgResourceLoaderMinifierMaxLineLength, because there was little value in
+ making the behavior configurable. The default values (`false` for the former,
+ 1000 for the latter) are now hard-coded.
+* $wgDebugDumpSqlLength was removed (deprecated in 1.24).
+* $wgDebugDBTransactions was removed (deprecated in 1.20).
+* $wgUseXVO has been removed, as it provides functionality only used by
+ custom Wikimedia patches against Squid 2.x that probably noone uses in
+ production anymore. There is now $wgUseKeyHeader that provides similar
+ functionality but instead of the MediaWiki-specific X-Vary-Options header,
+ uses the draft Key header standard.
+* $wgScriptExtension (and support for '.php5' entry points) was removed. See the
+ deprecation notice in the release notes for version 1.25 for advice on how to
+ preserve support for '.php5' entry points via URL rewriting.
+* Password handling via the User object has been deprecated and partially
+ removed, pending the future introduction of AuthManager. In particular:
+** expirePassword(), getPasswordExpireDate(), resetPasswordExpiration(), and
+ getPasswordExpired() have been removed. They were unused outside of core.
+** The mPassword, mNewpassword, mNewpassTime, and mPasswordExpires fields are
+ now private and will be removed in the future.
+** The getPassword() and getTemporaryPassword() methods now throw
+ BadMethodCallException and will be removed in the future.
+** The ability to pass 'password' and 'newpassword' to createNew() has been
+ removed. The only users of it seem to have been using it to set invalid
+ passwords, and so shouldn't be greatly affected.
+** setPassword(), setInternalPassword(), and setNewpassword() have been
+ deprecated, pending the introduction of AuthManager.
+** User::randomPassword() is deprecated in favor of a new method
+ PasswordFactory::generateRandomPasswordString()
+** User::getPasswordFactory() is deprecated, callers should just create a
+ PasswordFactory themselves.
+** A new constructor, User::newSystemUser(), has been added to simplify the
+ creation of passwordless "system" users for logged actions.
+* $wgMaxSquidPurgeTitles was removed.
+* $wgAjaxWatch was removed. This is now enabled by default.
+* $wgUseInstantCommons now hotlinks Commons images by default instead of
+ downloading originals and thumbnailing them locally. This allows wikis to save
+ on CPU and bandwidth while reducing time to first byte for pages, even without
+ a thumbnail handler. See $wgForeignFileRepos documentation for tweaks.
+* (T27397) WebP is enabled by default as an uploadable filetype.
+* (T48998) $wgArticlePath must now be either a full url, or start with a "/".
+* $wgRateLimitLog was removed; use $wgDebugLogGroups['ratelimit'] instead.
+* Deprecated API formats dbg, txt, and yaml have been removed.
+* CLDRPluralRule* classes have been replaced with
+ wikimedia/cldr-plural-rule-parser.
+* Removed $wgProfilePerHost, $wgUDPProfilerHost, $wgUDPProfilerPort,
+ $wgUDPProfilerFormatString, $wgStatsMethod, $wgAggregateStatsID,
+ $wgStatsFormatString, and $wgProfileCallTree (deprecated since 1.20).
+* For proper operation of LocalIdLookup with shared user tables, ensure that
+ $wgSharedDB and $wgSharedTables are properly set even on the "central" wiki
+ that all others are sharing from and that $wgLocalDatabases is set to the
+ full list of sharing wikis on all those wikis.
+* Massive overhaul to session handling:
+** $wgSessionsInObjectCache is no longer supported and must be true, due to
+ MediaWiki\Session\SessionManager. $wgSessionHandler is similarly no longer
+ used.
+** ObjectCacheSessionHandler is removed, replaced with
+ MediaWiki\Session\PhpSessionHandler.
+** PHP session handling in general ($_SESSION, session_id(), and so on) is
+ deprecated. Use MediaWiki\Session\SessionManager instead. A new config
+ variable, $wgPHPSessionHandling, is available to cause use of $_SESSION to
+ issue a deprecation warning or to cause most PHP session handling to throw
+ exceptions.
+** Deprecated UserSetCookies hook. Session-handling extensions should generally
+ be creating a custom subclass of CookieSessionProvider. Other extensions
+ messing with cookies can no longer count on user data being saved in cookies
+ versus other methods.
+** Deprecated UserLoadFromSession hook, extensions should create a
+ MediaWiki\Session\SessionProvider.
+** The User cannot be loaded from session until after Setup.php completes.
+ Attempts to do so will be ignored and the User will remain unloaded.
+** CSRF tokens may be fetched from the MediaWiki\Session\Session, which uses
+ the MediaWiki\Session\Token class.
+* MediaWiki will now auto-create users as necessary, removing the need for
+ extensions to do so. An 'autocreateaccount' right is added to allow
+ auto-creation when 'createaccount' is not granted to all users.
+* Deprecated AuthPluginAutoCreate hook in favor of LocalUserCreated.
+* Most cookie-handling methods in User are deprecated.
+* $wgAllowAsyncCopyUploads and $CopyUploadAsyncTimeout were removed. This was an
+ experimental feature that has never worked.
+* Login and createaccount tokens now vary by timestamp.
+* LoginForm::getLoginToken() and LoginForm::getCreateaccountToken()
+ return a MediaWiki\Session\Token, and tokens must be checked using that
+ class's methods.
+* $wgEnotifUseJobQ was removed and the job queue is always used.
+* The functionality of the ApiSandbox extension has been merged into core. The
+ extension should no longer be used.
+* $wgPreloadJavaScriptMwUtil was removed (deprecated in 1.26).
+ Extensions, skins, gadgets and scripts that use the mediawiki.util module must
+ express a dependency on it.
+* $wgIncludeLegacyJavaScript, deprecated in MediaWiki 1.26, now defaults false.
+ Extensions, skins, gadgets and scripts that need the mediawiki.legacy.wikibits
+ module should express a dependency on it.
+* Removed configuration option $wgCopyrightIcon (deprecated since 1.18). Use
+ $wgFooterIcons['copyright']['copyright'] instead.
+* If the openssl and mcrypt PHP extensions are both unavailable, secure
+ session storage (used for login) will raise an exception. This exception may
+ be bypassed by setting $wgSessionInsecureSecrets = true.
+* Massive overhaul to authentication:
+** AuthPlugin and AuthPluginUser are deprecated.
+** LoginForm and associated templates are deprecated. Extensions which called
+ static LoginForm methods should be converted into authentication providers.
+** The following hooks are deprecated:
+*** AbortAutoAccount (create a MediaWiki\Auth\PreAuthenticationProvider instead)
+*** AbortLogin (create a MediaWiki\Auth\PreAuthenticationProvider instead)
+*** AbortNewAccount (create a MediaWiki\Auth\PreAuthenticationProvider instead)
+*** AddNewAccount (use LocalUserCreated instead)
+*** AuthPluginSetup (create a MediaWiki\Auth\PrimaryAuthenticationProvider instead)
+*** ChangePasswordForm (use AuthChangeFormFields instead, or security levels)
+*** LoginUserMigrated (create a MediaWiki\Auth\PreAuthenticationProvider instead)
+*** UserCreateForm (create a MediaWiki\Auth\AuthenticationProvider of some type instead)
+*** UserLoginForm (create a MediaWiki\Auth\AuthenticationProvider of some type instead)
+** The following hooks are removed:
+*** AbortChangePassword
+*** LoginPasswordResetMessage
+*** PrefsPasswordAudit
+** The UserLoginComplete hook will no longer be called for all logins, only for
+ those via the web UI. Use UserLoggedIn if you need to do something on all
+ logins.
+** $wgRequirePasswordforEmailChange is removed.
+
+=== New features in 1.27 ===
+* $wgDataCenterUpdateStickTTL was also added. This decides how long a user
+ sticks to the primary DC (via cookies) after they make changes to the site.
+* Added a new hook, 'UserMailerTransformContent', to transform the contents
+ of an email. This is similar to the EmailUser hook but applies to all mail
+ sent via UserMailer.
+* Added a new hook, 'UserMailerTransformMessage', to transform the contents
+ of an emai after MIME encoding.
+* Added a new hook, 'UserMailerSplitTo', to control which users have to be
+ emailed separately (ie. there is a single address in the To: field) so
+ user-specific changes to the email can be applied safely.
+* $wgCdnMaxageLagged was added, which limits the CDN cache TTL
+ when any load balancer uses a DB that is lagged beyond the 'max lag'
+ setting in the relevant section of $wgLBFactoryConf.
+* User::newSystemUser() may be used to simplify the creation of passwordless
+ "system" users for logged actions from scripts and extensions.
+* Extensions can now return detailed error information via the API when
+ preventing user actions using 'getUserPermissionsErrors' and similar hooks
+ by using ApiMessage instances instead of strings for the $result value.
+* $wgAPIMaxLagThreshold was added to limit bot changes when databases lag
+ becomes too high.
+* Skins and extensions can now use FlexBox mixins (.flex-display(@display: flex)
+ and .flex(@grow: 1, @shrink: 1, @width: auto, @order: 1)) in Less to create
+ cross-browser-compatible FlexBox rules. Users will still need to add fallback
+ float rules or the like for compatibility with IE9- separately.
+* Added MWTimestamp::getTimezoneString() which returns the localized timezone
+ string, if available. To localize this string, see the comments of
+ $wgLocaltimezone in includes/DefaultSettings.php.
+* Added CentralIdLookup, a service that allows extensions needing a concept of
+ "central" users to get that without having to know about specific central
+ authentication extensions.
+* $wgMaxUserDBWriteDuration added to limit huge user-generated transactions.
+ Regular web request transactions that takes longer than this are aborted.
+* Added a new hook, 'TitleMoveCompleting', which runs before a page move is
+ committed.
+* $wgCdnReboundPurgeDelay was added to provide secondary delayed purges of URLs
+ from CDN to mitigate DB replication lag and WAN cache purge lag.
+* (T49162) Installer will default to setting CACHE_ACCEL as the main cache type
+ if it is available.
+* It is now possible to patrol file uploads (both for new files and new versions
+ of existing files). Special:NewFiles has gained an option to filter by patrol
+ status. This functionality can be disabled using $wgUseFilePatrol.
+* MediaWiki\Session infrastructure allows for easier use of session mechanisms
+ other than the usual cookies.
+** SessionMetadata and SessionCheckInfo hooks allow for setting and checking
+ custom session metadata.
+* Added MWGrants and associated configuration settings $wgGrantPermissions and
+ $wgGrantPermissionGroups to hold configuration for authentication features
+ such as OAuth that want to allow restricting the user rights a user may make
+ use of.
+** If you're already using the OAuth extension, these new variables are
+ identical to (and will replace) $wgMWOAuthGrantPermissions and
+ $wgMWOAuthGrantPermissionGroups.
+* Added MWRestrictions as a class to check restrictions on a WebRequest, e.g.
+ to assert that the request comes from a particular IP range.
+* Added bot passwords, a rights-restricted login mechanism for API-using bots.
+* Whitelisted the following HTML attributes for all elements in wikitext:
+ aria-describedby, aria-flowto, aria-label, aria-labelledby, aria-owns.
+* Removed "presentation" restriction on the HTML role attribute in wikitext.
+ All values are now allowed for the role attribute.
+* $wgContentHandlers now also supports callbacks to create an instance of the
+ appropriate ContentHandler subclass.
+* Added $wgAuthenticationTokenVersion, which if non-null prevents the
+ user_token database field from being exposed in cookies. Setting this would
+ be a good idea, but will log out all current sessions.
+* $wgEventRelayerConfig was added, for managing PubSub event relay configuration,
+ specifically for reliable CDN url purges.
+* Requests have unique IDs, equal to the UNIQUE_ID environment variable (when
+ MediaWiki is behind Apache+mod_unique_id or something similar) or a randomly-
+ generated 24-character string. This request ID is used to annotate log records
+ and error messages. It is available client-side via mw.config.get( 'wgRequestId' ).
+ The request ID supplants exception IDs. Accordingly, MWExceptionHandler::getLogId()
+ is deprecated.
+* (T33313) Add a preference for watching uploads by default, also applies
+ to API-based upload tools.
+* $wgJpegPixelFormat was added to override chroma subsampling for JPEG image
+ thumbnails created via ImageMagick. Defaults to 'yuv420', providing bandwidth
+ savings versus the previous behavior on many files.
+* MediaWiki\Auth infrastructure (called "AuthManager") allows for more flexible
+ configuration of multiple authentication pieces that was possible with
+ AuthPlugin. For example, it's now easy to plug in second-factor
+ authentication, or add additional checks to the login process, or to support
+ multiple login methods at once, or to support non-password-based login methods.
+** Providers are configured via the global setting $wgAuthManagerConfig.
+** A global, $wgDisableAuthManager, is temporarily available to disable
+ AuthManager until extensions are ready to support it.
+** New hook, AuthChangeFormFields, to adjust the form fields on
+ AuthManager-related special pages.
+** New hook, AuthManagerLoginAuthenticateAudit, for additional logging of
+ AuthManager-related authentication requests.
+** New hook, ChangeAuthenticationDataAudit, for additional logging of
+ AuthManager-related authentication data changes.
+** New hook, SecuritySensitiveOperationStatus, to work with the new mechanism
+ for requiring a recent login before taking security-sensitive operations
+ like changing a password.
+** Two new globals, $wgChangeCredentialsBlacklist and $wgRemoveCredentialsBlacklist
+ can be used to prevent the web UI and the API changing certain authentication data.
+* The file upload dialog (available if you install WikiEditor or VisualEditor)
+ can now be configured using $wgUploadDialog.
+

+ under HHVM (T116347).
+* (T54077) The APIEditBeforeSave hook will once again give only the content of
+ the section being edited, rather than the whole revision. This reverts the

+
+=== Action API changes in 1.27 ===
+* Added list=allrevisions.
+* generator=recentchanges now has the option to generate revids.

+ merely need to change the username and password used after setting up a bot
+ password.
+* action=upload no longer understands statuskey, asyncdownload or leavemessage.
+* Several changes when $wgDisableAuthManager is false:
+** action=login is deprecated for uses other than bot passwords.

+
+=== Compatibility ===
+
+MediaWiki 1.27 requires PHP 5.5.9 or later. There is experimental support for
+HHVM 3.6.5 or later.
+
+MySQL 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 5.0.3 or later
+* PostgreSQL 8.3 or later
+* SQLite 3.3.7 or later
+* Oracle 9.0.1 or later
+* Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (9.00.1399)
+
+=== Upgrading ===
+
+1.27 has several database changes since 1.26, 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).
+
+If upgrading from before 1.11, and you are using a wiki as a commons
+repository, make sure that it is updated as well. Otherwise, errors may arise
+due to database schema changes.
+
+If upgrading from before 1.7, you may want to run refreshLinks.php to ensure
+new database fields are filled with data.
+
+If you are upgrading from MediaWiki 1.4.x or earlier, you should upgrade to
+1.5 first. The upgrade script maintenance/upgrade1_5.php has been removed
+with MediaWiki 1.21.
+
+Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
+
+See the file UPGRADE for more detailed upgrade instructions.
+
+For notes on 1.26.x and older releases, see HISTORY.
