Tiki5

Schedule

• upgrading to branch5 includes keeping up to date every few days.
• A note should be added at the top of each *.tw.o site that "This site is currently being used to test upcoming Tiki5. It's normal to see bugs. Please help by reporting and fixing."

Blocker

• 1.9 -> 4.x (and possibly other versions) : user admin no longer has full admin rights (because not in Admins group). More recent installs have user admin as part of Admins group. But this apparently was not done in upgrade script as well. So it should be done in upgrade script too, for 4.x

Essential

• http://profiles.tikiwiki.org/File+Gallery+Handler -> are created (and in since your last visit) but not appearing in tiki-list_file_gallery.php since 20826
• Make release scripts be OK with removal of Database independence
  • Check (JSLint) all JavaScript can be safely minified
• Change language files to no longer include untranslated strings
• Finish all Dynamic Preferences (Pkdille, help needed)
  • Test on Fresh installs, that no unwanted changes appears. Ex.:
    • as of 2010-01-06: feature_wiki_mandatory_category, wikiHomePage, email_due, pass_due, users_prefs_display_timezone, etc
    • Filegals disappearing on MySQL < 5.0?
  • no pref modifications should be leftover in tiki-admin_include_*.php files
• Permissions cleanup
  • tiki_p_subscribe_groups vs tiki_p_group_join
• Define min spec
  • PHP 5.?
  • MySQL 4.1?
  • Apache (relevant?)
  • Memory
    • for server - 256MB is painful
    • and for php.ini memory_limit is 32MB still enough?

Todo

• In branches/5.x syntax for flash videos on this page http://doc.tikiwiki.org/PluginFlash produce "Flash player not available."
• Dynamic prefs
  • Theme options in perspectives
• tiki-edit_translation.php not working for articles (excellent for wiki though)
• Payment deployment
  • Need icon for Tiki Payment to appear in tiki-admin.php and link to tiki-payment.php
  • link to tiki-payment.php in menu
• Metrics and Ratings deployment
  • Need icons for tiki-admin.php?page=metrics and tiki-admin.php?page=rating
• Script to check all doc page links in all prefs
• Configuration search
  • if no results, say so
  • change message (call to action) done
  • remove from profiles page done
  • make always on done
• Workspaces
  • feature_category_reinforce -> still relevant?
  • tiki-admingroups.php -> Default category assigned to uncategorized objects edited by a user with this default group -> still relevant?
• Profiles
  • Get featured profiles going
• Admin panels
  • tiki-admin.php?page=ads -> should not be conditional to banner ad feature
• Remove Database independence
  • remove convertscripts directory
  • search strings like pg_connect, pgsql, PostgreSQL, etc and remove relevant code
  • update installer to use tiki.sql instead of tiki-5.0-mysqli.sql
  • make secdb happy with tiki.sql instead of tiki-secdb_4.0_mysql.sql
  • update doc
• Put a hint for sessions no-cache, pre-check=0, post-check=0
• check & fix PluginAnnotation
• check & fix Kaltura
• fix action box in calendar and filegal to remove charset problem in other language than english.(Works in 3.X but doesn't work in 4.X and 5.X)

jonnyb's wishlist

If any one else wants to do some of these, please do go ahead!

• Upgrade jQuery to 1.4.1 and jQuery.UI to 1.8
  • Will mean upgrading other plugins too probably.
  • JB working with Robert Plummer on jQuery.sheet 0.54 now
• Upgrade FCKeditor to 2.6.6
• Refactor new user / change password code (we have 3 versions at least?)
• Remove the stupid, annoying, buggy, misleading getElementById function in tiki-js.js
• Webmail from account fix

Test in upgrade

• switch_lang from 4 to 5 (name change?)
• 1.9 -> 4.x : user admin no longer has admin rights (because not in Admins group)

Nice to have

• Insert PluginModule helper interface, module picker should be a drop down (how will I remember 100+ module names?)
• Tools: add nowiki and add mouseover on by defaultTo make mouseover comments easy by default with signature
• Remove Multimedia GillesM
• Remove JS Calendar
• Updated admin modules interface (Chealer)
• Finish all accesslib checks and resolve message which is no longer relevant " This feature is disabled: feature_articles To enable this feature, go to: Admin Feature. If you do not have privileges to activate this feature, ask the site admin to do it. " because you can do just below
