It allows to create social network activity streams within Tiki. In order to create them, you will need to define what the important events are in your system. Events like "tracker item created" or "wiki page modified" will rarely make sense to your users looking at an activity stream. Instead, they may be interested when photos posted by their friends. The activity stream feature allows to intercept system event, filter them and trigger new events. These new events can be recorded and indexed, which will allow them to be displayed in an activity stream.

See Activity Stream

You have many more filtering options to select users from the users list. You can filter by a search string in the username, by exact email, by the fact that users didn't validate their account, etc. All of them using the jQuery Sortable Tables feature.

• Replace by htmlMailMime by Zend_Mail implementation

There is a new feature to place all notification email messages in a queue, and send all those emails periodically through a Cron job using ./console.php script with mail-queue:send parameter. (N.B. Historical note: Prior to Tiki 12.2 the command was ./sendmail.php)

This requires setting up mail delivery with a SMTP server instead of just sendmail, and set it to use a Queue.

See Admin home > General > General Preferences > Mail

Click to expand

See Mail Queue

A new option "File (debug)" has been added to the "General Admin Panel > General preferences (tab) > Mail > Mail Sender" to allow the site admin to debug any potential issues with the sending of emails related to notifications, user or groupwatches, etc.

The emails are still recorded in the Tiki System Log as if they were sent, but they are stored as files on disk under this folder and file structure:

./temp/Mail_aaaammddhhmmss_randomstring.tmp

See General Preferences.

Mail-in service has been fixed and updated in Tiki12

The new things include

• Structure routing. Link mailed-in content to a structure. User filters specify routing rules.
• Inline images (HTML email). These pages are written in HTML.
• Permission checking and ability to block anonymous and admin users.
• Users are required to have both edit and attach permissions to save a wiki page
• Possible to auto-assign new pages to a category and a namespace
• Possible to disable email sending by Mail-in system.
• Manual email check trigger in the mail-in admin panel
• Several fixes, including subject encoding

The Mail-in service is a fast way to generate wiki pages, if the content is already on email or can be emailed.

For more information, see Mail-in

• OpenLayers upgraded to 2.12
• Added MapQuest Open tilesets
• And many many other fixes and improvements which were made for the CartoGraf project, an interactive web-based mapping application to enhance learning in history and geography classes in high schools. CartoGraf is mainly based on Maps, Drawings, PluginAppFrame and Trackers. This is a great example of how to use profiles to use a general purpose app (Tiki) to make a very specific application (CartoGraf).
• allow import of map path/zone tracker data from a file instead of the existing SVG draw method of data entry. From 12.1 a new "Index As Map Layer" option (defaults to No) has been added to the Files tracker field for an uploaded file (scroll to the end of the Options list to find this new one). A drop down list allows the selection of the file format to be either geoJSON or GPX - however the map projection must (at present) be EPSG:4326. This new capability overcomes the previous limitations with the Geographic Feature field to import existing data. A tracker should either have the Files field or the Geographic Feature field.
• have more admin control over individual path/zone display characteristics ie line colour, type, thickness etc. From 12.1 the properties element of the XML-like structured file uploaded to a File Gallery and used in the tracker Files field as discussed above can have a wide range of parameters that can set the stroke-color, stroke-width etc for the individual display object.
• From 12.1 POI icons now positioned so that the location point is the bottom middle of the 'pin'
• a 'hand' cursor icon is shown when a POI/Zone is hovered over to indicate it is clickable
• there is 'admin' control over what is shown in the POI/Zone pop-up box: the bubble/dialog (popupstyle parameter options - in map plugin) content could already be highly customised using /templates/object/infobox.tpl and /templates/object/infobox/trackeritem.tpl - and these can be placed in the /templates/style/yourstyle/ folder so that they are just used with your theme and will not be overwritten during an upgrade. But from 12.2 the popup box width/height etc., can be controlled by a number of new parameters.

See #Structures_Drill_Down_menu

There is a new option to allow truncating internal message notification to a certain number of characters (you can set it up in Admin home > Messages)

See Inter-User Messages

Mobile mode display has been extensively improved in Tiki12.

See Mobile

New option to load the modules from a static files ( in profile YAML format like http://profiles.tiki.org/Module+Handler )
You can use this from admin -> profiles -> export

New option to hard code modules and module zones in templates

{modulelist zone=top}

{module module="search" title="xyz" ... }

This is useful for easy sync of Dev, Test, Prod : Configuration Management

• Allow for user-defined module zones
• ModuleList wiki plugin to display custom module zones in pages
• Allow to include module lists in a template using a smarty plugin
• http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.cms.tiki.devel/28929

There a new parameter to select type of object (wiki page, blog post, article, file gallery, etc) in module freetags_most_popular.

The module accepts the param "orderby" to indicate the sorting order of the videos in the playlist shown, and its default came back to 'position', which is the official default by youtube.
See Module last_youtube_playlist_videos

Since Tiki 12.1, it also displays the new calendars and their events created since the last visit.

In addition, some icons have been slightly modififed in the JQuery presentation mode, so that they can distinguish similar but different content (blogs from blog posts, file galleries from files, tracker items created from updated, etc).

See an example below. Same content is shown in both displays of the module for the same site:

Using "Fold sections by default"		Using "jQuery presentation mode"
In this example, only 4 sections are unfolded: Wiki Blog posts Calendars Calendar events The other sections contain items but they are hidden under the section name. When you click on the section name, you toggle the display of its contents.		In this example, the Wiki tab is selected (shown with grey background), listing the 7 wiki pages changed. When you pass the mouse over another tab, its background is shown in blue color (in this case, the new calendar events icon, at the bottom right corner). When you click, the content displayed below switches to the changed content for that other tiki section.

Former module users_list, only available in mods and for older tiki versions, has been ported to Tiki 12.1.
It displays a list of users with many optional parameters such as Real Name, avatar (picture), member of groups, and links to user page and action log of that user, among others.

See #Check_Permissions

See #Wiki_Plugins

Profiles have been improved to be more useful as a configuration management tool. Namely, profiles:

• can now be stored in the local filesystem as YAML files, allowing for version control along with the project changes without the need for an external repository. Among other things, this would allow Tiki's Featured Profiles to be bundled with the source.
• can now be installed during the upgrade process as patches.
• allow exporting advanced rating configurations individually and as a complete set
• allow exporting and import RSS feed configurations along with article generators
• allow exporting articles, article types and article topics.
• allow exporting file gallery hierarchies
• allow exporting menus
• A set of commands are now available to export profiles.
• articles and blogs accept geolocation of their content from profiles.

Local Profiles consist of a single YAML file and an optional directory containing the references files.

Support for MySQL Full Text Search and Elastic Search as engines has been introduced for unified index. These engines are complete alternatives to the Lucene (PHP Implementation). All user interface components and plugins (such as PluginList, PluginCustomSearch, ...) will keep working and the documentation available in Unified Index still applies.

ElasticSearch requires a server to be installed. It provides several benefits:

• Faster indexing
• Lower memory usage within PHP
• Faster searches
• Scalable across multiple machines if required
• Better result highlighting

MySQL Full Text Search doesn't require a server to be installed. It provides several benefits:

• Faster indexing

Blog posts containing HTML

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:

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

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:

sudo port install php5-gmp
sudo port install php5-mcrypt

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

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.

local.php

If you had defined in your former ./db/local.php something like

$api_tiki='adodb';

and after the upgrade you notice that you can't edit some pages, of weird characters are displayed in some rare places, you can try removing that line from your ./db/local.php .

Mobile permissions

If you applied the Mobile profile in the past, and you get a "permission denied" message when you attempt to see the site in mobile mode, you need to grant the permissions to view perspectives to anonymous users:

Search Index

After the upgrade, the Unified Index may take longer to rebuild, at least the first time that you are with this new Tiki version. If the link "Rebuild index" at the "Admin search" panel doesn't produce a successful reindexing, you can do that on a terminal server side, while setting a higher amount of memory for the process, and forcing an initial clean-up of index leftovers.

Therefore, you could run something like:

root@server:/path/trunk# php -dmemory_limit=4G console.php i:r --force --log
Removing leftovers...
Started rebuilding index...
Rebuilding index done

For multitiki sites, you can rebuild with commands like:

root@server:/path/trunk# php console.php index:rebuild --site=site1.example.com  
root@server:/path/trunk# php console.php index:rebuild --site=site2.example.com  
...

& Syntax for short links invalid

In past Tiki versions such as Tiki9, wrong syntax to point in a url to a specific tab was accepted. Example:

1. http://example.com/tracker1&show=mod
2. http://example.com/tracker1&cookietab=2

In Tiki12, and probably in some version earlier also, the syntax needs to be like:

1. http://example.com/tracker1?show=mod
2. http://example.com/tracker1?cookietab=2

Themes

Some CSS changes were introduced for themes between 11.x and 12.x:

Site Logo & Site titles

The former #sitelogo, #sitetitle and #sitesubtitle IDs have been changed to classes .sitelogo, .sitetitle and .sitesubtitle . Please make these changes in your theme CSS after upgrade if you formerly styled using any of those css selectors.

Strasa.css login background color

If you were using strasa.css theme style, you might miss the background color of the login module in the header, getting white text font over white background temporarily.
Set up theme options to "cool", for instance, and the blue background of the login module will be back in your site.
