88 88  Always make sure you compare your ##xwiki.cfg## and ##xwiki.properties## files with the newest version since some configuration parameters were 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.

91 +== Comments stored with a custom mapping or custom annotation class ==
92 +
93 +If you happened to use a custom mapping for storing ##XWiki.XWikiComments## objects in a separate table, you may have experienced problems with the migration ##R40001XWIKI7540##. Dealing with custom mappings is outside the scope of the migration so now, if such a custom mapping is detected, the migration is simply skipped. The migration is also skipped if you use a custom annotation class for your annotation objects, other than the default ##AnnotationCode.AnnotationClass##.
94 +
95 +If you are in one of the two cases above and the migration is skipped, you will want to make sure that the ##Annotations## docextra tab is still visible. To make it visible, set ##Administration > Look & Feel > Page Elements > Document metadata visibility > Show document annotations## to ##Yes##. You will continue to use your custom annotations (in the Annotations tab) or custom mapped comments (in the Comments tab) as before, without them being merged into one Comments tab, as it happens by default in the latest versions.
