16
17 == SubWikis Management ==
18
19 XWiki Enterprise comes now with the ability for users to create their own subwikis. There is no "workspace" anymore.
20
21 === SubWiki Creation Right ===
22
23 The subwiki creation is now possible for users who has the "subwikicreation" right. This right is only available for the main wiki users, exactly like the Programming Right.
24
25 A new section is available in the administration of the main wiki to manage who has this right.

36 = For Developers =
37
38 == Forcing IE Compatibility mode ==
39
40 Now, we force the Compatibility mode for Internet Explorer (IE) browsers to use the latest rendering mode.
41 Before, the IE browser displayed all intranet sites in compatibility mode by default. This means that even if the user was using IE9, he saw the content rendered with IE7 standards. Since we don't [[support>>dev:Community.BrowserSupportStrategy]] IE6/7 anymore this lead in displaying broken layout, scrollbars, etc. See [[XWIKI-8907>>http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-8907]].
42
43 == Choosing which types of attachments can be displayed inline (Security) ==
44
45 In order to prevent XSS via FileUpload, a new feature has been added : you can now specify in xwiki.properties which types of attachment can be displayed inline.
46 In the "Attachment" section of xwiki.properties, you can either precise a whitelist of mimetypes that can be displayed inline, or precise a blacklist of mimetypes that shouldn't be displayed inline (if you use this configuration, it is strongly advised to blacklist at least "text/html" and "text/javascript" mimetypes for security reasons).
47 Note that attachments provided by PR users won't be affected by these restrictions.

83 {{warning}}
84 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.
