367 * EditMetaData (by MichaelVanDam) for example. (forgot what else was new)
368 * Jochen Kalmbach's new UserFileManagement and UserRegistration didn't went upstream.
369 (personal uploads, ...)
371 1.3.3 early 2002, Jeff strikes back, with the help of Carsten Klapp:
373 * major feature enhancements:
374 * Cache all output and use a clever page cache. Get rid of plugin-head.
375 * new PageType class. Formatter and Search engine rewrite.

380 * PluginManager and several more plugins.
382 1.3.2 early 2002, Reini Urban strikes:
384 * Start of external authorisation in the config, but not in code.
385 * Store Preferences in the users PersonalPage (Jeff)
386 * Sessions in DB, pear DB update
387 * concept of Subpages, UnfoldSubpages, SiteMap, AllPages, AllUsers, ...
388 * PageList (Jeff and Reini)
389 * Several new plugins: RedirectTo, plugin-head architecture.
390 Normalize template names. WikiAdminSelect architecture: WikiAdminRemove
391 * VisualWiki, TexToPng, text2png + several cached plugins (by Johannes Große)
392 * PhpWeather (?), PrevNext, image buttons,
393 * IncludePage (Joe Edelman), FrameInclude (Reini), Transclude (Jeff)
394 * Calendar (contributed by ?), CalendarList, WikiBlog, ...
396 .... a small hole here .... (three years no detailed HISTORY. see the outline above)
400 * New database API. See =lib/WikiDB.php= and =lib/WikiDB/backend.php=
401 for the bulk of the documentation on this. The new database can
402 save multiple archived versions of each page. A mechanism for
403 purging archived revisions is now in place as well. See the
404 $~ExpireParams setting in =index.php=, and =lib/~ArchiveCleaner.php=
405 for details. At this point, the DBA, MySQL and Postgres backends
406 are functional. The DBA backend could use some performance
407 optimization. The whole API is still subject to some change as I
408 figure out a clean way to provide for a variety of (not all forseen)
409 methods of indexing and searching the wiki.
411 * New WikiPlugin architecture.
413 * New template engine. This needs to be documented further, but, for
414 now, see =lib/Template.php=. On second thought, don't
415 (=lib/Template.php= desperately needs refactoring, still.) The
416 basic advance is that PHP4's =ob_*()= functions can be used to
417 capture output from code that is run through =eval(). This allows
418 the templates to be PHP code...
420 * Edit preview button on the edit page. Now you can see what your
421 edits look like before committing them.
423 * Reworked the style-sheets. I still need to clean this up some more.
424 I would appreciate comments and bug reports on it. So far I've only
425 tested the new style sheets with Netscape 4.77 and Mozilla 0.9.3
426 (both running under Linux.)
428 * Expanded syntax for text search, Searches like "wiki or web -page"
429 (or "(wiki or web) and not page") will now do more-or-less what they
430 look like they'll do.
432 * Security Issues: PhpWiki will now work with PHP's =register_globals=
435 PhpWiki 1.3.x development branch.
437 * Pagenames in =PATH_INFO=.
439 * File uploads: see PhpWikiAdministration.
443 * Ugly [MagicPhpWikiURLs] for administrative links.
445 PhpWiki 1.2 is a huge advance over version 1.0:
447 * Database support for MySQL, Postgresql, mSQL, flat file and the new
448 dba_ library in PHP4 is included.
450 * Internationalization: support for different languages, down to the
451 source level, is included. German, Spanish, Swedish and Dutch are
452 currently shipped with PhpWiki. An architecture is in place to
453 easily add more languages.
455 * New linking schemes using square brackets in addition to the old
458 * Administration features include page locking, dumping the Wiki to a
459 zip file, and deleting pages.
461 * A MostPopular page showing the most frequently hit pages.
463 * Full HTML compliance.
465 * Links at the bottom of pages describing relationships like incoming
466 links from other pages and their hits, outgoing and their hits, and
467 the most popular nearby pages.
469 * Color page diffs between the current and previous version.
471 * An info page to view page metadata.
473 * Far more customization capability for the admin.
475 * A templating system to separate the page HTML from the PHP code.
477 * New markup constructs for =<B>=, =<I>=, =<DD>=, =<BR>= and more.
479 * Tabless markup to supercede the older markup (both still supported).
484 PhpWiki 1.1.9 includes Spanish language pages, a full implementation
485 for Postgresql, numerous bug fixes and more. See the =HISTORY= file
486 for more info: http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/HISTORY
490 PhpWiki 1.1.6 is a major revision of PhpWiki. The ability to have
491 themes (via an easy-to-edit template system) has been added; the
492 schema for MySQL has been completely overhauled, breaking the page
493 details into columns (for efficiency we agreed not to put references
494 in a separate table, so it's not completely normalized. "Don't let the
495 best be the enemy of the good.")
497 Postgresql support has been added and the markup language is evolving, now allowing
503 tags and __a new way to make text bold__, and of course the
504 [new linking scheme].
506 There is a new feature on all pages called ''more info'' that gives
507 you a low level detailed view of a page, which is probably more useful
508 for debugging than anything.
510 As we move towards a 1.2 release we will be adding logging, top ten
511 most active pages and other new features with the new database schema
512 (and yes, these features will make it into the DBM version too). I
513 also want to add mSQL support and test it under Zend, the new PHP4.
515 Below are the release notes for version 1.03, the last release of the
516 1.0 PhpWiki series. --Steve Wainstead, mailto:swain@panix.com
520 PhpWiki was written because I am so interested in WikiWikiWeb~s, and I
521 haven't used PHP since version 2.0. I wanted to see how it had
524 Version 1.0 is a near-perfect clone of the Portland Pattern
525 Repository, http://c2.com/cgi-bin/wiki?WikiWikiWeb. In truth, I was
526 using the Wiki script you can download from there as a model; that
527 Wiki lacks a number of features the PPR has, like EditCopy. So in
528 truth PhpWiki is a kind of hybrid of the PPR and the generic Wiki you
529 can get from there (which is written in Perl).
531 The one caveat of PhpWiki is the allowance of HTML if the line is
532 preceded by a bar (or pipe, which is how I usually say it). (That's a
533 '=|='). It was very simple to add, and the idea came from a posting
534 somewhere on the PPR about how AT&T had an internal Wiki clone and
535 used the same technique. The ability to embed HTML is disabled by
536 default for security reasons.
538 Version 1.01 includes a patch that fixes a small error with rendering
539 <hr> lines. Thanks to Gerry Barksdale.
