- Maps: OpenLayers upgraded to 2.12.
- Maps: Added MapQuest Open tilesets.
- Maps: And many many other fixes and improvements which were made for the CartoGraf project, an interactive web-based mapping application to enhance learning in history and geography classes in high schools. CartoGraf is mainly based on Maps, Drawings, PluginAppFrame and Trackers. This is a great example of how to use profiles to use a general purpose app (Tiki) to make a very specific application (CartoGraf).
- Modules: Option to load the modules from a static files ( in profile YAML format like http://profiles.tiki.org/Module+Handler ). You can use this from admin -> profiles -> export.
- Facebook: Facebook module to show Facebook wall (messages and stories) of a Tiki user.
- Twitter: Twitter module to show public/friends Twitter timeline.
- Menu: Added a drill down.
- Namespaces: Namespaces have been added, in order to facilitate the creation of different workspaces with common page names, for instance, among them (aka: "Introduction", "About", "Team memmbers", etc).
- References: References implements local references in Tiki. Tiki also has support for Zotero references, but they are stored externally on the Zotero server.
- Screencast: This permits to capture your screen and upload to Tiki. Still image or Video with sound.
- Search: Search results 'Default where' parameter changed from a single select drop down selector to a multiple checkbox selection so that custom 'mixes' of content types can be included in search results.
- Search: Search results can now be sorted (asc or desc) by: Relevance (default); Title; Modified date; or Visits.
- Themes: It is now possible to set a different theme (and/or option) for admin pages to reduce the workload when creating custom themes and options. Admin -> Look & Feel -> Theme -> Admin Theme.
- Wiki syntax change for center: Wiki syntax for centering has been by default changed from ::center:: to :::center::: for new installs but upgrades will continue to use the previous syntax. This change is needed to avoid potential incompatibilities with the new namespaces feature.
- Workspace UI: There an interface to manage the creation and editing of Workspaces, so that batch creation of sets of Tiki objects with custom groups and associated permissions can now be handled more easily.
