Semantic MediaWiki 2.4 - first release candidate
by Jeroen De Dauw 25 Jun '16

25 Jun '16

Hey all, I am happy to announce the first release candidate for Semantic MediaWiki 2.4. This is a development version - do NOT use it in production. Semantic MediaWiki 2.4 is the first feature release after SMW 2.3. It brings new functionality, enhancements and stability improvements. Since it is a feature release, it does not include any breaking changes. Preliminary release notes: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/blob/master/docs/REL… Compatibility tables: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/blob/master/docs/COM… This release candidate is meant to gather feedback and to allow you to do testing against the new version. You can try out the new features on the SMW sandbox wiki at http://sandbox.semantic-mediawiki.org, or upgrade your own wiki. If you find any issues, please report them on our issue tracker: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/issues The target for the actual 2.4 release is July 3rd. You can follow the release process in this tracking issue: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/issues/1364 ### Upgrading instructions ### If you are using SMW via Composer, update the version in your composer.json to "~2.4@rc" and run "composer update". If you are using the tarballs, you can download SMW 2.4 RC1 here: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/releases/tag/2.4.0-R… (note that we switched from SourceForge to GitHub) More detailed upgrading instructions will be made available for the 2.4 release. ### Help wanted ### You can help with this release by improving the release notes. If you have any questions, please post them on the release tracking issue. There is also a list of issues suitable for newcomers to the project: https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/issues?q=is%3Aissue+… Cheers -- Jeroen De Dauw | https://entropywins.wtf | https://keybase.io/jeroendedauw Software craftsmanship advocate | Developer at Wikimedia Germany ~=[,,_,,]:3

Trigger Echo notification to a user group
by Abhi Nand 24 Jun '16

24 Jun '16

Hi everyone, I am working on Extension for page creation/editing notifications <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T128827>. I have to trigger the Echo notification for a particular user group. Is there a way in which EchoEvent can sent the notification directly to a particular user. Can EchoEvent handle the usergroup at once ? If no, how can I get the users in the user group ? Can anyone help me figure this out ? Thanks & Regards -- Abhinand N About <http://www.abhinand7.me/> | Blog <https://abhilovesto.wordpress.com/> | Github <https://github.com/abhinand4858> *"Explore.Dream.Discover"*

Dear Teammates, When my users edit a wiki page, if the page is on their watchlist, they get an email including a link like: See https://myserver.com/wiki/index.php?title=Development/Implementation_Peer_R… to view this change. They would like to know if there is a setting so that the email would print out the diff in the email, rather than them having to select the link to see the diff ?? thx let me know, L
