7 One of the main focus of XWiki 10.7 was bug fixing thus this release starts by reducing the bug count by 33, in important areas such as as Notifications, Skin or the core. This version also contains autocomplete of links when using the WYSIWYG editor, Macro content prefill when inserting a Macro from the WYSIWYG editor, and the beginning of replacing the old XWiki Confirmation boxes with Bootstrap modals with a focus on the comments action box to start with.

71 When upgrading make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg##, ##xwiki.properties## and ##web.xml## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters may have been modified or added. Note that you should add ##xwiki.store.migration=1## so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.

73 == Issues specific to XWiki 10.7 ==
74
75 * An important [[bug has been discovered in the Notification Applications>>https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-15445]] that prevents using the Auto Watch feature when the wiki contains a lot of pages. For this reason, [[the default behavior for the Auto Watch feature has been set to not automatically follow any page>>doc:extensions:Extension.Notifications Application||anchor="HAutoWatch"]]. Nevertheless, users and administrators can still [[decide to change their own settings>>doc:extensions:Extension.Notifications Application||anchor="HChoosingthedefaultauto-watchedmode"]].
